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 mimics calcium chemically, it travels with groundwater and can enter a house through the main service line without any taste, smell, or color to give it away. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present in your Doral water is to have targeted radionuclide testing performed.
In Doral households, water is used for more than drinking — it’s part of cooking, making ice, bathing, and oral care — so any contaminant found in tests should be addressed at the point where water enters the home. While point-of-use filters protect a single faucet, they won’t stop contaminants at showers, irrigation, or other fixtures around your Miami-Dade property. A correctly chosen whole-house system gives consistent protection across daily water use in neighborhoods like Downtown Doral or Providence.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is commonly 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 process can capture positively charged contaminants such as strontium, so an ion exchange softener installed at the Doral service entry point provides treatment for every tap and fixture in the home.
For reliable performance in hard Miami‑Dade water, the softener must be sized to your household’s daily demand and mineral load — hard water in Doral can cause mineral scale, so proper sizing and regeneration are important. Regular salt-based regeneration restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and prefiltration helps protect media from sediment that shortens service life. Mr. Pure Water can review your Doral water test results and recommend a whole-house ion exchange setup that targets strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
