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 a lot like calcium, it can stay dissolved in groundwater and enter Sanborn homes through the main service line. There’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to warn you it’s present, so the only way to know for sure is a laboratory test that looks for radionuclides.
In Sanborn households, water is used for much more than drinking—cooking, making ice, bathing and brushing teeth all rely on the same supply. If testing identifies elevated strontium-90, reducing exposure means treating water at the point it enters the house so every fixture is covered. Single faucet point-of-use filters can help in one location, but they won’t protect the whole home; a correctly chosen whole-house system gives consistent treatment across daily use.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option for removing strontium-90 because the resin swaps dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That exchange process also captures other positively charged elements like strontium, so an ion exchange softener treats the water as it enters your Sanborn home and can reduce chemically similar contaminants through the same mechanism.
An ion exchange softener needs to be sized to your household water use and the mineral load in your supply to perform well in Sanborn. Regular salt-based regeneration restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves effectiveness. Prefiltration to remove sediment often extends media life; Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
