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 acts like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter homes through the main supply line without changing taste, odor, or appearance. In Keri and elsewhere in the western Florida Panhandle, the only reliable way to detect it is with laboratory testing that targets radionuclides.
Keri homeowners use water for drinking, cooking, ice, bathing and oral care, so any contaminant detected by testing becomes a housewide concern. Point-of-use filters at a single faucet can help in one spot, but they won’t protect appliances, showers, or outdoor taps around your Okaloosa County property. A whole-house system treats water at the entry point so every fixture gets the same level of protection throughout daily use.
When a single whole-house filter is needed to reduce strontium-90, an ion exchange water softener is often the best option. These systems use resin to swap certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also capture positively charged contaminants such as strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced by the same exchange process, making a softener a practical choice for treatment at the home’s main line.
For reliable performance in Keri’s moderately hard water, a softener must be sized to your household’s demand and mineral load and regenerated regularly with salt to refresh the resin. Adding prefiltration can protect the resin from sediment common in Panhandle groundwater and extend service life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house ion exchange setup tailored for Keri homes without unnecessary complexity.
