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 groundwater. Because it mimics calcium chemically, it can dissolve into aquifer water and travel into homes through the main supply line, without any taste, smell, or visible clue to its presence. In Cana, where many households draw from Florida’s groundwater sources, the only reliable way to know if strontium-90 is present is to have a water test that specifically looks for radionuclides.
Families use water for cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth, so concerns about strontium-90 often extend beyond just drinking. If testing in your Cana home shows elevated strontium-90, treating water at the point of entry prevents exposure throughout the house. Point-of-use filters protect a single fixture, but a whole-house system treats every tap and appliance, giving consistent coverage for showers, laundry and all daily water uses.
A whole-house water softener that relies on ion exchange is commonly the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Since strontium is chemically similar to calcium, the ion exchange process can capture positively charged strontium ions and reduce them as water passes through the tank. For many Cana homeowners who want treatment at the home’s entry point, an ion exchange softener is a practical, straightforward choice.
To perform well in Cana’s humid subtropical area—where groundwater mineral content can vary—an ion exchange softener must be sized to your household’s daily water use and overall hardness. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to remove strontium, and routine maintenance preserves consistent performance. Often a sediment prefilter is recommended to protect the resin from particulate matter; Mr. Pure Water can review your local water test and recommend a whole-house configuration matched to your needs without adding unnecessary complexity.
