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 chemically like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a Lake Mystic home through the main service line. You won’t be able to taste, see, or smell it, so the only reliable way to know if it’s present is a focused radionuclide water test.
Locally in Lake Mystic, water is used for more than drinking — it’s for cooking, making ice, bathing, and oral hygiene — so any contaminant detected in testing can affect daily life throughout the house. If results indicate elevated strontium-90, the most effective step is treating the water at the point it enters your home so every faucet and shower benefits. Point-of-use devices protect a single tap, but a whole-house system delivers consistent coverage across all household uses.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the single most effective filter for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Because strontium is a positively charged ion chemically similar to calcium, the same exchange process that removes hardness minerals can also reduce strontium. For many Lake Mystic homeowners, an ion exchange softener at the main line is a practical way to provide treatment to every fixture.
To be effective in Lake Mystic homes, an ion exchange softener needs to be sized for your household’s water use and mineral load so the resin can do its job. Regular regeneration with salt restores the media’s capacity to exchange ions and maintain removal of strontium over time, and a good prefilter helps keep sediment from fouling the resin. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a whole-house softener and prefiltration plan tailored to your Lake Mystic residence.
