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 acts much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter Modello homes through the main supply line — whether you’re on municipal water or a private well. There’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence, so the only way to know if it’s in your water is a radionuclide-focused lab test.
In Modello households, water is used for more than drinking — cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all matter for exposure. If testing flags strontium-90, the safest step is to treat water at the point it enters your home so every faucet and fixture is covered. Point-of-use filters protect a single tap, but a whole-house system gives consistent protection for daily tasks across your home.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the single most effective filter option for reducing strontium-90 at the entry to a Modello home. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also attract positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be reduced by this exchange process, making ion exchange a practical choice when you want treatment for the entire house.
For best results in Modello’s warm climate and with varied water sources, size the ion exchange softener to match your household demand and overall mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance keeps performance reliable. Prefiltration can protect the resin from sediment and extend system life; Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend a whole-house setup that targets strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
