Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can be present in water at very low concentrations. Because it behaves like calcium, it can dissolve into groundwater and travel through pipes to reach a house via the main service line. There’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence, so the only dependable way for Clio homeowners to know is through water testing that specifically looks for radionuclides.
You might hear about strontium-90 when discussing safe drinking water, but household exposure comes from everyday uses—cooking, making ice, showering, and brushing teeth. If test results indicate elevated levels, the objective is to lower exposure by treating water before it reaches faucets and fixtures. Point-of-use devices protect only one outlet, while a properly chosen whole-house system delivers protection across your Clio property for consistent coverage during normal daily use.
A whole-house water softener is commonly the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because it relies on ion exchange. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also capture other positively charged contaminants like strontium. Since strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be lowered by this same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice when you want treatment at the point where water enters a Clio home.
To be effective, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s water use and mineral load, and it requires regular regeneration with salt so the resin continues removing strontium. Routine maintenance and good prefiltration help protect the media from sediment and sustain performance. Mr. Pure Water can review your Clio water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets strontium-90 efficiently without making the system more complex than necessary.
