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 amounts. Because it behaves much like calcium, it travels with groundwater and can enter a house through the main service line without changing taste, smell, or color. In Fortymile Bend — a low-lying, flood-prone area of Miami‑Dade County where well water can pick up extra sediment after heavy rains — the only reliable way to know whether strontium-90 is present is to have your water tested specifically for radionuclides.
We use water for so many everyday tasks — cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth — so any contaminant that reaches the plumbing affects the whole household. Point-of-use filters protect a single tap, but they won’t cover showers or outdoor spigots. In Fortymile Bend homes, especially with hard, sediment-prone water after storms, a correctly chosen whole-house system gives consistent protection at every fixture and reduces overall exposure if testing indicates elevated strontium-90.
When the goal is to reduce strontium-90 throughout the 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 capture positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced by the same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical entry-point treatment for Fortymile Bend households.
To perform reliably, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s flow and the high mineral content typical of hard water. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium, and routine maintenance preserves long-term performance. In Fortymile Bend, where storm runoff can increase sediment, pairing a softener with prefiltration helps protect the media; Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend the right whole-house configuration for your home.
