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 can dissolve into groundwater, travel through pipes, and enter a Lloyd home via the main service line. There’s no dependable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence, so the only way to know if strontium-90 is in your supply is through targeted radionuclide testing.
In Lloyd households, water is used for cooking, ice, bathing, and oral hygiene, so concerns about strontium-90 often extend beyond just drinking water. If testing indicates elevated levels, the aim is to limit exposure by treating water at the point it enters the house so every tap is protected. Single faucet point-of-use filters can help in one spot, but they won’t safeguard showers, laundry, or other fixtures—whereas a correctly chosen whole-house system gives more complete coverage for everyday use.
A whole-house water softener is frequently the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because it employs ion exchange. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also capture other positively charged contaminants, including strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced through that same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice for treating water at the entry point to a Lloyd residence.
To perform well in Lloyd homes, an ion exchange softener should be sized to your household’s daily water use and the hardness or mineral content of your supply. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium, and routine maintenance helps sustain reliable operation. Prefiltration can protect the media from sediment that shortens its lifespan. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup tailored for Lloyd that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
