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. It behaves much like calcium, so it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main service line without any noticeable taste, smell, or color to give a warning. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present is through water testing that specifically checks for radionuclides.
In Sears households, water is part of everyday life — cooking, making ice, bathing and brushing teeth — so concerns about strontium-90 often come up in discussions about home water safety. If test results indicate higher levels, the aim is to reduce exposure by treating water at the point it enters the home so every faucet and appliance is covered. Point-of-use filters can protect a single sink or fridge, but they won’t safeguard the whole house; a properly chosen whole-house system delivers consistent treatment across all daily water uses.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is frequently the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin exchanges certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Because strontium is chemically similar to calcium, the resin can capture positively charged strontium ions during that exchange. That ion exchange mechanism makes a softener a practical solution when you want treatment at the home’s entry point so every tap benefits.
To perform well in Sears — where Central Florida groundwater is often hard and can cause scale — an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household water use and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt renews the resin so it continues to remove strontium, and basic maintenance keeps the system reliable. Prefiltration can also protect the resin from sediment that would shorten its life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets strontium-90 while addressing local hardness and plumbing needs.
