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 behaves like calcium, it travels with groundwater and can enter a residence through the main supply line, without any taste, smell, or visible sign to warn you. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present in your Fountainebleau water is to test specifically for radionuclides.
In homes across Miami-Dade County, including Fountainebleau, water is used for much more than drinking—cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all create routes of exposure. Point-of-use filters protect a single faucet, but they won’t safeguard showers, laundry, or outdoor taps. If testing flags elevated strontium-90, treating water at the point it enters your Fountainbleau house gives coverage for everyday use throughout the home.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is commonly the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin exchanges certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Since strontium is chemically similar to calcium, it can be captured by the same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice for entry-point treatment in Fountainebleau homes.
To be effective in the hard water typical of the Miami-Dade area, an ion exchange softener must be sized to your household’s usage and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance plus a good prefilter helps protect the media from sediment and scale that are common in Fountainbleau plumbing. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets Strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
