Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can appear in water at very low concentrations. Because it acts like calcium, it moves easily with groundwater and can reach your home through the main water line without changing taste, smell, or color. The only dependable way to know whether it’s present in McDavid drinking water is to have a lab test that specifically checks for radionuclides.
In McDavid homes, water is used for far more than drinking — cooking, ice, showers and brushing teeth all matter when it comes to exposure. If testing reveals elevated strontium-90, the smart approach is to treat water at the point it enters the house so every fixture is covered. Point-of-use devices protect a single faucet, but they leave the rest of the home unprotected; a properly sized whole-house system gives consistent treatment across household use.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so an ion exchange softener placed at the main water entry can lower strontium-90 levels throughout a McDavid residence while also addressing hardness.
For reliable performance in a McDavid home, the softener must be sized to your household’s water usage and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance keeps the system working well. Prefiltration to remove sediment often helps protect the media and extend service life; Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a whole-house setup tailored to address strontium-90 without making the system more complicated than it needs to be.
