Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur at trace levels in water. Because it acts like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main service line without any taste, smell, or visible sign. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present is to have your water tested for radionuclides, a step we recommend for Saint Augustine South homeowners who want clarity about their supply.
Residents of Saint Augustine South use tap water for cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth, so drinking-water concerns can affect daily life throughout the house. If testing shows elevated strontium-90, the objective is to treat water at the point it enters the home so every faucet and appliance is covered. Point-of-use devices can protect a single sink, but they won’t address water used for showers or laundry; a correctly chosen whole-house system delivers consistent protection for all household water needs.
When the goal is reducing 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 specific dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can also remove other positively charged atoms like strontium, so chemically identical contaminants such as strontium-90 can be reduced by the same exchange process. For Saint Augustine South properties with hard municipal groundwater, this entry-point approach treats water before it reaches any fixture.
An ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s daily water use and the hardness common in St. Johns County to perform well. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to remove strontium, and routine maintenance plus good prefiltration helps prevent mineral scale and sediment from shortening the media’s life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softening system tailored for Saint Augustine South that targets Strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
