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 acts much like calcium in chemistry, it can dissolve into groundwater and travel through the main supply into a home in Riomar without any taste, smell, or visible sign. The only reliable way for homeowners in the Jacksonville metro area to confirm its presence is with laboratory testing that targets radionuclides.
Families use household water for drinking, cooking, ice, bathing and brushing teeth, so any contaminant found on a water test is worth addressing at the point of entry. Point-of-use cartridges can protect a single faucet, but they won’t treat water for the whole house—important in Riomar where moderate hardness and summer humidity can affect plumbing and water use. A correctly chosen whole-house system treats every fixture consistently and reduces exposure across daily activities.
When the goal is to reduce strontium-90 throughout the home, 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 can also capture other positively charged contaminants such as strontium, so chemically similar elements are reduced as water flows through the tank. For many Riomar homes, this makes an ion exchange softener a practical entry-point treatment.
An ion exchange softener performs best when sized for your household demand and the mineral content of your water—factors familiar to homeowners in Duval County where moderate hardness is common. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to keep removing strontium, and routine maintenance helps avoid performance drops. Protecting the softener with good prefiltration also reduces sediment and biofilm risk in humid summers, and Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend a whole-house setup tailored to Riomar conditions.
