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 like calcium in water, it can travel with groundwater and enter a house through the main supply line. You won’t taste, smell, or see it, so the only way to know if it’s present is a targeted water test for radionuclides — something many Royal Poinciana Park homeowners consider when they want peace of mind about their water.
Families use tap water for drinking, cooking, ice, bathing and brushing teeth, so any contaminant found in testing is best addressed at the source. Point-of-use filters protect a single faucet, but they leave most fixtures exposed. For Royal Poinciana Park residences — where hard municipal water is common in the Miami area and appliances can be affected by mineral scale — an entry-point whole-house system gives consistent protection across every outlet in the home.
A whole-house water softener that uses ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90. The resin beads in the softener swap certain dissolved ions in the water for sodium or potassium and can also capture positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, it can be removed by that same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice for treating the water at your Royal Poinciana Park service entry.
To be effective in a Royal Poinciana Park home, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s flow and the local water’s mineral content. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues to reduce strontium over time, and prefiltration helps keep sediment from fouling the media — especially useful where hard water can cause scale. Mr. Pure Water can review your radionuclide test results and recommend a whole-house softener set up to address strontium-90 without making the system more complex than it needs to be.
