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 mimics calcium chemically, it moves with groundwater and may enter a home through the main supply line without any noticeable taste, smell, or color to give a warning. The only reliable way to find it in your Piedmont plumbing is with a targeted water test for radionuclides.
In Piedmont households, concerns about strontium-90 often focus on drinking water, but your water is used for much more—cooking, ice makers, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on the same source. If test results show elevated levels, reducing exposure means treating water at the entry point so every fixture is protected. Point-of-use filters protect a single tap, but a whole-house system gives consistent coverage for daily use across the home.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is commonly the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so an ion exchange softener can lower strontium-90 as water enters a Piedmont home. For many homeowners this entry-point approach is a practical way to treat the entire plumbing system.
To be effective in Piedmont—where water hardness and mineral content can vary by neighborhood—an ion exchange softener should be sized to your household’s water use and local mineral levels. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues removing strontium, and routine maintenance prevents performance drops. Prefiltration to remove sediment can extend media life. Mr. Pure Water can review your local test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup tailored to your needs without unnecessary complexity.
