Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur in water at very low concentrations. Because it behaves much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter homes through the main service line without any change in taste, smell, or color to warn you. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present in your Ives Estates water is to have a lab test that specifically looks for radionuclides.
In Ives Estates households, water is used for cooking, ice makers, bathing, and brushing teeth — not just drinking — so any contaminant found in the supply can affect many daily activities. If testing shows elevated strontium-90, the best approach is to treat water at the point it enters the house so every faucet and appliance is covered. Point-of-use filters can protect a single sink or fridge line, but a whole-house system gives consistent protection across showers, laundry, and all taps in your Miami-Dade County home.
A whole-house water softener that uses ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter choice for reducing strontium-90 because the resin removes positively charged ions by swapping them for sodium or potassium. Since strontium carries the same chemical properties as other cations like calcium, it can be captured by the softener’s resin. For Ives Estates residents dealing with hard municipal water, this ion exchange approach treats water at the entry point so treatment applies throughout the home.
To perform well in Ives Estates — where Miami-Dade municipal water is typically hard and mineral buildup can be an issue — an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s flow and overall mineral load. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and keeping a good prefilter in place helps prevent sediment from reducing media life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a properly sized whole-house softener and prefiltration plan that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
