Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can appear in water at very low concentrations. Because it acts like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main supply line without any taste, smell, or visible sign. The only reliable way for East Naples homeowners to know if it’s present is to have water tested for radionuclides by a qualified lab.
In Collier County homes, water is part of daily life—from cooking and making ice to bathing and brushing teeth—so any contaminant in the supply affects more than just a single faucet. If testing finds elevated strontium-90, the sensible approach is to treat water at the point it enters your East Naples home so every fixture is protected. Point-of-use devices can serve one sink but won’t safeguard appliances or showers; a whole-house system provides consistent coverage for all household uses.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That ion exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so installing a properly specified softener at the home’s entry point gives treatment across all taps in East Naples.
For best results in our area’s typically hard water, size the ion exchange softener to match your household demand and mineral levels. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance keeps the system performing—especially important with coastal humidity and mineral scale common in East Naples. Adding a sediment prefilter protects the resin from particles that could shorten its life.
