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 much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main service line, so there’s nothing you can taste, smell or see to warn you it’s present. In Holden Lakes — where many homes draw from Floridan aquifer supplies with higher mineral content — the only reliable way to know is to have your water tested for radionuclides.
You use household water for cooking, ice, bathing and brushing teeth, so conversations about strontium-90 often focus on whole-home exposure, not just a single faucet. Point-of-use devices protect one fixture but leave the rest of the house untreated. For Holden Lakes homeowners who want coverage across showers, laundry and all taps, a correctly chosen whole-house system reduces overall exposure by treating water at the entry point.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is frequently the best single-filter option for lowering 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 softener treats the water before it gets distributed through a Holden Lakes home and is a practical way to address this contaminant at the service entry.
To perform well, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s water use and the mineral load coming from your source; in Central Florida areas like Holden Lakes this is an important step because local groundwater commonly has elevated mineral content. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium, and routine maintenance plus a quality prefilter helps protect the media from sediment. Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your test results and recommend a whole-house configuration that targets strontium-90 without making the system more complex than it needs to be.
