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 behaves like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a Brookside home through the main service line. You won’t taste, smell, or see it, so the only reliable way to know if it’s present is a water test that includes radionuclides.
In Brookside households, water is used for more than drinking — for cooking, ice, bathing and brushing teeth — so any contaminant in the supply becomes a daily exposure. If testing shows elevated strontium-90, reducing contact at the point it enters the house is the most effective approach. Point-of-use devices treat a single faucet, but a whole-house system gives consistent protection to every fixture and appliance throughout your home.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the single most effective filter for reducing strontium-90 because the resin exchanges dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Since strontium is chemically similar to calcium, the softener’s resin can capture positively charged strontium ions, making an ion exchange system a practical entry-point treatment for Brookside homes.
To perform well in Brookside’s humid subtropical environment — where hard water and limescale are common — an ion exchange softener must be sized to your household water use and mineral load. Regular salt-based regeneration restores the resin’s capacity to remove strontium, and routine maintenance plus prefiltration to remove sediment will help the media last. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a correctly sized whole-house setup that targets strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
