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 a lot like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main supply line without changing taste, smell, or appearance. The only dependable way to find out whether it’s present is to have your water tested for radionuclides, particularly if you live in North Lauderdale or elsewhere in Broward County.
Families in North Lauderdale use tap water for everything from cooking and making ice to bathing and brushing teeth, so contaminants in the main supply can affect daily life. Point-of-use filters protect a single faucet, but they won’t treat water flowing to showers, washing machines, or outdoor hoses. If testing reveals elevated strontium-90, a whole-house system is the right way to reduce exposure at every fixture across your home, including properties in local neighborhoods like Hampton Hills and Lauderdale North.
A whole-house water softener that uses 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. Since strontium is chemically similar to calcium, the same exchange process can capture positively charged strontium ions. For North Lauderdale homeowners who want treatment at the plumbing entry point, an appropriately chosen ion exchange softener provides broad coverage without adding extra complexity.
To get reliable removal, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household demand and the hard water typical of this part of South Florida—hardness that can otherwise accelerate scale buildup in pipes and appliances. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to remove strontium, and routine maintenance plus a good prefilter helps protect the media from sediment. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets Strontium-90 while fitting North Lauderdale home needs.
