Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can show up in water at very low concentrations. Because it behaves much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a home through the main service line without any taste, smell, or color to warn you. The only reliable way to know if it’s present in your Lois water is to have a lab test specifically for radionuclides.
In Lois households, water is used for much more than drinking — cooking, ice, bathing, and toothbrushing all matter for exposure. While a point-of-use filter can treat one faucet, it won’t protect showers, outdoor hoses, or other fixtures. If testing finds elevated strontium-90, treating water at the point it enters your Lois home with a whole-house system gives coverage across daily use and reduces overall household exposure more consistently.
A whole-house water softener is commonly the single-filter option most effective at reducing strontium-90 because it uses ion exchange. The resin bed swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can capture other positively charged contaminants such as strontium. Since strontium-90 is chemically a form of strontium, it can be reduced by this exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical entry-point treatment for Lois homes.
To be effective in Lois, an ion exchange softener needs to be sized for your household’s water use and the mineral levels in your supply. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues removing strontium over time, and routine maintenance keeps performance steady. Prefiltration can protect the media from sediment and extend service life—Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup for your Lois home that targets strontium-90 without making the system more complex than necessary.
