Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur in water at trace levels. Because it acts much like calcium in nature, it can travel with groundwater and enter your home through the main supply line without any taste, smell, or visible sign. The only reliable way to determine whether it’s present is a laboratory test that measures radionuclides, so local testing is the first step for Homestead Base homeowners concerned about their water.
You use household water for many routine tasks — cooking, making ice, bathing and brushing teeth — so any contaminant in the supply has multiple exposure pathways. Point-of-use devices protect a single faucet, but they leave the rest of the house unprotected. In Homestead Base and surrounding Miami-Dade County neighborhoods, a whole-house system installed at the point of entry gives coverage for every fixture and appliance, helping reduce overall household exposure when testing indicates elevated strontium-90.
A whole-house water softener that uses ion exchange is often the most practical single-filter choice for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so treating the water at the entry point provides consistent reduction throughout the home. For many Homestead Base properties—where Miami-Dade’s hard Biscayne Aquifer water is common—an ion exchange softener can address both hardness and certain dissolved contaminants in one system.
To perform effectively, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s flow and the area’s mineral load; regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium over time. Protecting the softener with appropriate prefiltration helps prevent sediment in Miami-Dade’s typically hard source water from shortening resin life. Mr. Pure Water can review your Homestead Base water test results and recommend a correctly sized whole-house setup that targets strontium-90 while also managing hardness and everyday water use.
