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 like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main supply line, and there’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence. The only dependable way to know whether it’s in your water is to have laboratory testing for radionuclides, especially if you live in Rio Pinar or elsewhere in Orange County and want peace of mind about your family’s drinking water.
You and your family use home water for drinking, cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth, so reports about strontium-90 often raise concerns beyond just the kitchen tap. If tests show elevated levels, the aim is to limit exposure by treating water at the point it enters the house so all fixtures receive the same protection. While point-of-use devices can protect a single sink, they won’t cover showers, laundry, or outdoor spigots—so many Rio Pinar homeowners choose whole-house treatment for more consistent coverage across daily water use.
A whole-house water softener using 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. That same exchange mechanism can also capture positively charged contaminants like strontium, so installing a properly configured softener at the home’s entry point provides treatment to every tap. For Rio Pinar residences—where municipal water from the Orlando area is common and moderate hardness can contribute to scaling—an ion exchange softener addresses both mineral hardness and can reduce strontium through the same process.
To get reliable removal, the softener must be sized for your household’s water use and the mineral content typical of the Orlando-area supply. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance prevents performance drops. Pairing the softener with a basic prefilter will help keep sediment out of the resin and extend its life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results from Rio Pinar and recommend a whole-house ion exchange system that targets strontium-90 effectively while also addressing local hardness and everyday plumbing needs.
