Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that sometimes shows up in water at very low concentrations. Because it acts much like calcium in natural systems, it can dissolve into groundwater and enter your plumbing through the main service line. You won’t be able to taste, smell, or see it, so the only reliable way to know if it’s present in Howard household water is a lab test for radionuclides tailored to detect strontium-90.
In homes across Howard, water is used for more than drinking — it’s part of cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth — so concerns about strontium-90 often extend beyond one faucet. If testing finds elevated levels, treating water at the point it enters your house reduces exposure throughout daily routines. While a point-of-use filter can protect a single tap, a whole-house system ensures consistent treatment for showers, laundry and all fixtures used by your family in our humid subtropical Florida climate.
A whole-house water softener that relies on ion exchange is commonly the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Since strontium is chemically similar to other positive ions, it can be captured by that exchange process. For Howard residents who want treatment at the home’s entry point, an ion exchange softener offers a practical, single-filter solution to lower strontium-90 exposure across the household.
To perform well, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s daily water use and existing mineral load. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to continue removing strontium, and simple maintenance plus a prefilter to block sediment will prolong media life. Mr. Pure Water can look over your Howard water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets strontium-90 efficiently without adding unnecessary complexity.
