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 water. Because it chemically mimics calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter Glass homes through the main service line. There’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence, so the only way to know whether it’s in your water is through testing that specifically checks for radionuclides.
In Glass, families use household water for drinking, cooking, bathing, ice machines, and brushing teeth — so concerns about strontium-90 often focus on whole-home exposure. If testing indicates elevated levels, the practical response is to treat water at the point where it enters the house so every faucet and fixture is covered. Single point-of-use filters protect only one sink; a properly selected whole-house system gives consistent protection across typical daily uses throughout a Glass residence.
A whole-house water softener that uses ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter choice for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so an ion exchange system reduces chemically identical strontium-90 as it treats water at the home’s entry point. For many Glass homeowners, this makes a softener a practical way to address strontium in household water.
To be effective for a Glass household, an ion exchange softener should be sized for your family’s water use and the mineral content of your source. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and periodic maintenance keeps the system operating reliably. Combining a softener with prefiltration can protect the media from sediment and extend its service life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house setup tailored to Glass homes that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
