Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur in drinking water at very low concentrations. Because it acts much like calcium in the environment, it can travel with groundwater and enter your house through the main water supply. There’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to alert Brickyard residents if strontium-90 or related radionuclides are present, so the only way to know is through testing that specifically looks for radionuclides.
In Brickyard homes, water is used for cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth—so concerns about strontium-90 often focus on whole-house exposure, not just one faucet. If tests show elevated results, reducing that exposure means treating the water where it enters the house so all fixtures benefit. Point-of-use devices can protect a single tap, but they won’t cover showers, laundry, or outdoor hoses; a properly chosen whole-house system gives consistent protection across daily water use in your home.
For reducing strontium-90 in household water, a whole-house water softener using ion exchange is commonly the most effective single-filter option. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions in your water for sodium or potassium and can also capture positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced by that same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice when you want treatment at the main line into a Brickyard residence.
To perform well for a Brickyard household, an ion exchange softener needs to be sized for your family’s water use and the overall mineral content of your supply. Periodic regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium, and routine maintenance keeps the system working reliably. Often adding a prefilter helps protect the resin from sediment that can shorten its life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house ion exchange setup tailored to address strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
