Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can travel with groundwater and show up in household supply lines. Because it acts like calcium, it can dissolve into water and move unseen into homes, and it has no taste, smell, or color to give a warning. The only reliable way for Pennsuco homeowners to know if it’s present is through specific radionuclide testing of their water.
In Pennsuco, residents use the same water for drinking, cooking, ice, bathing, and brushing teeth, so any contaminant in the main line can affect daily life. If testing indicates elevated strontium-90, treating water at the point it enters your house reduces exposure across every faucet. Single point-of-use filters protect one sink or appliance, but they won’t cover whole-house needs—especially important here in Miami-Dade County where hard groundwater and our humid, storm-prone climate make consistent protection and system resilience valuable. A properly sized whole-house system gives broader coverage for everyday use.
When it comes to reducing strontium-90 at the home entry, a whole-house water softener using ion exchange is frequently the most effective single-filter option. The resin in the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium, and that exchange can also capture positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, an ion exchange softener can reduce it as water is conditioned for use throughout a Pennsuco home.
To perform well in Pennsuco’s typically hard groundwater, an ion exchange softener must be sized to your household water usage and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance helps sustain performance—prefiltration ahead of the softener also protects the media from sediment that can shorten its life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener and prefilter combination that targets strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
