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 like calcium, it can travel with groundwater and enter a residence through the main supply line without any taste, smell, or visible sign to warn you. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present in Century household water is through laboratory testing for radionuclides.
In Century, homeowners use tap water for everything from cooking and making ice to bathing and brushing teeth, so concerns about strontium-90 often center on whole-house exposure. If test results show elevated levels, the aim is to treat incoming water so every fixture is covered. While point-of-use filters protect a single sink or refrigerator, they won’t safeguard showers, laundry, or outdoor spigots; a correctly chosen whole-house system gives more consistent protection for everyday water use across your home.
A whole-house water softener is frequently the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because it relies on ion exchange. The softener’s resin exchanges certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can capture other positively charged species like strontium. Since strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced by the same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice for entry-point treatment in Century homes.
For reliable performance in Century, an ion exchange softener must be sized to your household’s water use and overall mineral levels. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves consistent operation. Pairing the softener with proper prefiltration helps keep sediment from clogging the media. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house configuration that targets strontium-90 effectively while keeping the system straightforward.
