Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur at very low concentrations in water. Because it behaves much like calcium, it travels with groundwater and can enter a residence through the main supply line, and there’s no reliable taste, smell or color that signals its presence. The only way to know if it’s in your Sixmile Bend water is with a laboratory test geared toward radionuclides.
You use your tap for many things in a humid subtropical place like Sixmile Bend — cooking, making ice, bathing and brushing teeth — so any contaminant in the supply can affect daily life. If testing indicates elevated strontium-90, the safest approach is to treat water at the point it enters the home so all faucets and appliances are covered. Point-of-use devices can protect a single sink, but a whole-house system delivers consistent protection across the house’s routine water use.
A whole-house water softener that uses ion exchange is frequently the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps dissolved ions in the water for sodium or potassium. That same exchange process can capture positively charged contaminants such as strontium, so installing an ion exchange softener at your Sixmile Bend service entry provides treatment for all fixtures rather than just one tap.
For reliable performance in Sixmile Bend, the softener must be sized to your household’s daily water use and the water’s mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s capacity to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves effectiveness. Protecting the media with a prefilter can prevent sediment from shortening its life; Mr. Pure Water can review your radionuclide test results and recommend a whole-house ion exchange setup that targets strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
