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 a lot like calcium, it can dissolve into groundwater and travel through the main supply line into a Monticello residence without any taste, smell, or visible sign. The only reliable way to detect it is with water testing that includes radionuclides.
In Monticello households, water is used for much more than drinking — cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on the home supply. If testing identifies elevated strontium-90, the most effective strategy is treating water at the point it enters the home so every faucet and fixture is covered. Point-of-use devices protect a single tap, but a whole-house system gives consistent treatment for everyday uses across the house.
When the goal is reducing strontium-90 throughout a Monticello home, a whole-house water softener is often the best single-filter option because it uses ion exchange. The resin in the tank swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also capture positively charged contaminants like strontium. Since strontium-90 is chemically strontium, an ion exchange softener can lower its concentration at the entry point to the plumbing.
To be effective in a Monticello home, an ion exchange softener should be sized for your household’s water use and the water’s overall mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium, and routine maintenance keeps the system performing. Prefiltration ahead of the softener can protect the media from sediment and extend its life; Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house configuration that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
