Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur at very low concentrations in water. Because it acts much like calcium, it can dissolve into groundwater and travel through mains to reach homes in Aurora. It has no taste, smell, or color to signal its presence, so the only reliable way to detect it is through testing that includes radionuclides.
Aurora homeowners use tap water for everything from cooking and ice to bathing and brushing teeth, so concerns about strontium-90 often center on whole-house exposure. If testing indicates elevated levels, the objective is to treat water at the point it enters your home so every faucet is covered. Single point-of-use filters protect one outlet, but they won’t safeguard showers, laundry, or outdoor spigots—whereas a properly chosen whole-house system offers consistent protection throughout an Aurora household.
When a single whole-house filter is the preferred option for reducing strontium-90, an ion exchange water softener is typically the most effective choice. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also remove positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced through this exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical entry-point treatment for Aurora homes.
To be effective in Aurora, an ion exchange softener should be sized to your household’s water use and overall mineral load. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium, and proper maintenance helps sustain performance. Prefiltration ahead of the softener can shield the media from sediment and extend service life. Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend a whole-house setup tailored to your Aurora home that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
