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 groundwater. Because it acts like calcium, it can dissolve into aquifers and travel with groundwater before entering a property through the main service line. There are no reliable taste, smell, or color changes to signal its presence, so the only practical way to know whether it’s in your water is a lab test that includes radionuclides — especially important for many Felda residents who rely on private wells.
People in Felda use their water for more than drinking — cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all matter when contaminants are present. If testing identifies elevated strontium-90, the best strategy is to treat water at the entry point so every tap is covered. Point-of-use devices can protect a single faucet, but they won’t safeguard showers, laundry, or outdoor spigots; a whole-house system gives consistent protection across daily household needs in rural Hendry County properties.
When the goal is reducing strontium-90 throughout a home, a whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also remove other positively charged ions like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced by this exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice for entry-point treatment in Felda homes.
An ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s water use and mineral load to perform well. Regular regeneration with salt renews the resin so it continues to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves consistent function. In many rural properties around Felda, adding a prefilter helps keep sediment away from the media and extends its life. Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your well test results and recommend a whole-house softener configuration that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
