Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur in trace amounts in groundwater. Because it acts a lot like calcium, it can dissolve into water and travel with groundwater before entering a Blocker home through the main line. You won’t be able to taste, smell, or see it, so the only reliable way to know if it’s present is with lab testing that includes radionuclides.
In Blocker households, water gets used for cooking, making ice, bathing, and caring for teeth — so any contaminant found in a test can affect many daily activities. Point-of-use filters can protect a single faucet, but they won’t treat showers, washing machines, or outdoor spigots. To reduce whole-home exposure, a correctly chosen whole-house system treats water at the point it enters your Blocker property, giving consistent protection across every fixture.
The most effective single-filter whole-house approach for reducing strontium-90 is an ion exchange water softener. These systems use resin that swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium, and that same exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants such as strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, an ion exchange softener can reduce its concentration when installed at the home’s main line in Blocker.
For reliable results in Blocker, an ion exchange softener needs to be sized for your household’s water use and the local mineral load. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues removing strontium, and regular maintenance prevents drops in performance. Prefiltration is often recommended to keep sediment out of the resin and extend its life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test, suggest the right whole-house softener setup for Blocker, and explain maintenance so the system works effectively without unnecessary complexity.
