Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can appear at very low concentrations in drinking water. Because it behaves much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a home through the main supply line without any taste, smell, or visible clue. For Island Walk homeowners concerned about contaminants, the only reliable way to know whether strontium-90 is present is to have water tested specifically for radionuclides.
You use your water for a lot more than drinking—cooking, ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on the same supply—so testing that shows elevated strontium-90 usually leads to treating the whole house to lower exposure. Point-of-use filters may guard a single faucet, but they won’t protect showers, laundry, or outdoor spigots in Island Walk. A correctly chosen whole-house system delivers consistent treatment to every fixture and covers daily household needs across North Naples and nearby neighborhoods.
When a single whole-house filter is called for, an ion exchange water softener is often the most practical solution for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so installing a residential softener at the entry point treats water before it reaches any taps. For Island Walk properties—where Collier County groundwater is commonly hard—this approach can address both mineral hardness and help reduce strontium concentrations with one system.
An ion exchange softener needs to be sized to your household’s flow and the overall mineral load to perform well in Island Walk’s hard water conditions. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues removing strontium over time, and routine maintenance prevents sediment and scale from shortening media life. Often, adding a good prefilter protects the softener from sand and particulates; Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a whole-house setup that targets strontium-90 while also managing hardness and scale.
