Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can appear in water at trace levels. Because it mimics calcium chemically, it can travel with groundwater and reach homes through the main supply line. There’s no reliable taste, smell, or visible sign to warn you it’s present, so the only way to detect it is with water testing that specifically looks for radionuclides.
In Palm Beach County households, water is used for more than drinking — cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on the same supply. If your test results show elevated strontium-90, the safest approach is to treat incoming water so every faucet and fixture is protected. Point-of-use devices can treat a single tap, but they won’t cover showers, washing machines, or outdoor spigots; a whole-house system gives consistent protection across everyday uses in your home.
When treating strontium-90 at the home’s entry point, a whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium, and that same exchange can capture positively charged contaminants such as strontium. Because strontium-90 behaves like chemically identical strontium, an ion exchange softener can reduce its concentration while providing treatment for hard water common in Palm Beach County.
To be effective in Palm Beach County’s typically hard groundwater, an ion exchange softener must be correctly sized for your household water use and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues removing strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves consistent performance. Pairing the softener with a quality prefilter helps block sediment and mineral scale that are common in our warm, humid climate and can prolong media life. Mr. Pure Water can review your lab results and recommend a whole-house configuration tailored to your home’s needs without unnecessary complexity.
