Including filter system and high-performance Radon filter.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter groundwater and make its way into a household water supply. While most people think of radon as an indoor air concern, it can also be present in well water and, less often, other sources — and it can be released into the air when you shower, run the dishwasher, or do laundry. Homeowners in Winter Park and throughout Orange County often consider both water and air when addressing radon because everyday water use can transfer the gas into the rooms where families spend time.
You can’t rely on taste, smell, or appearance to detect radon in water; it’s invisible in a glass. The sure way to know what’s in your home's supply is to test, since levels may differ block by block across Winter Park — from Hannibal Square to the Park Avenue District — and even between neighboring properties. If tests show elevated radon in the water, taking steps that match your home’s plumbing and routine water use makes sense. Treating at the point where water enters the house gives the most consistent protection for all taps and appliances.
For most homes, the single most effective treatment to reduce radon in household water is a whole-house aeration system installed at the main water entry. Aeration removes radon by transferring the gas from the water into an air stream, which is then vented away safely, rather than relying on sediment or carbon media designed for other contaminants. Because radon is a gas, this gas-transfer approach treats water that feeds showers, sinks, and appliances, lowering radon throughout the entire Winter Park home instead of only at one faucet.
A whole-house aeration filter is a self-contained unit that mixes air with incoming water and vents the radon-bearing air outdoors, typically installed before the water heater and the rest of your plumbing. Installed this way, it protects all water used for bathing, cooking, and cleaning across your Winter Park home and helps prevent scale-related issues that can be more noticeable in Central Florida’s warm, humid climate and moderately hard water. When needed, prefiltration can be added to reduce sediment and keep the aeration system performing reliably; Mr. Pure Water can assess your home and recommend the right aeration setup and placement for dependable whole-home radon reduction.
