Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur in water at very low concentrations. Because it behaves like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main supply line, and it won’t announce itself with taste, smell, or color. The only reliable way for homeowners in Corkscrew or elsewhere in Lee County to know whether it’s present is through water testing that specifically looks for radionuclides.
You use household water for everything from cooking and making ice to bathing and brushing teeth, so concerns about strontium-90 often become household concerns. If testing flags elevated levels, reducing exposure means treating incoming water so every tap is covered. Point-of-use devices protect one fixture, but won’t shield whole households in places like Corkscrew, Estero or Miromar Lakes; a correctly chosen whole-house system delivers consistent treatment throughout daily use.
A whole-house water softener based on ion exchange is frequently the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90, because the softener’s resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange can capture other positively charged contaminants such as strontium, so an ion exchange system can reduce strontium-90 when installed at the home’s entry point.
To be effective in Corkscrew’s hard groundwater, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household water use and mineral load. Regular salt regeneration restores the resin so it continues removing strontium over time, and routine maintenance helps preserve performance—especially where mineral scale from hard water can affect fixtures and appliances. Prefiltration to remove sediment often extends resin life. Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend a whole-house configuration suited to Corkscrew homes without making the system more complicated than it needs to be.
