Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur at very low concentrations in water. Because it behaves much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a home through the main supply line, with no reliable taste, smell, or visible sign to warn you. The only way to know if it’s present is to have your water tested specifically for radionuclides — a sensible first step for Kendale Lakes homeowners who want clarity about their water.
Families in Kendale Lakes use water for everything from cooking and ice to bathing and brushing teeth, so drinking-water concerns extend throughout the home. While point-of-use filters protect a single faucet, they won’t treat showers, washing machines, or outdoor taps. If water testing shows elevated strontium-90, the practical approach is to treat incoming water at the entry point so all fixtures and appliances in your Kendall Lakes house receive the same protection.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin exchanges dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. As strontium is chemically similar to calcium, it can be removed by that same exchange process. For Kendale Lakes homes — where municipal water in the Miami-Dade area is typically hard — an ion exchange softener can treat water at the point of entry and help address both mineral hardness and positively charged contaminants like strontium.
To perform well in a Kendale Lakes household, an ion exchange softener should be sized to your family’s daily water use and the hardness of Miami-Dade municipal water. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to capture strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves system performance. Protecting the resin with a quality prefilter reduces sediment-related wear. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets strontium-90 effectively for your home.
