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 similarly to calcium, it can dissolve into groundwater and travel through mains to reach households in McIntyre. There’s no dependable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence, so the only reliable way to know if it’s in your water is a lab test for radionuclides.
In McIntyre homes, water is used for much more than drinking—cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on the same supply. If testing finds elevated strontium-90, the most effective strategy is to treat the water where it enters the house so every fixture is covered. Faucet-level point-of-use filters can protect a single tap, but they won’t safeguard showers, laundry, or irrigation; a properly chosen whole-house system gives consistent protection across daily household use.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is frequently the best 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 such as strontium, so an ion exchange softener can lower levels of strontium-90 when installed at the home’s entry point. For many McIntyre homeowners, this makes a softener a practical, entry-point solution.
To be effective in McIntyre, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s water use and the water’s mineral content. Regular salt-based regeneration restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves performance. Often a sediment prefilter is added to protect the resin from particles that shorten its life. Mr. Pure Water can look over your water test results and recommend a whole-house configuration that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
