Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can travel with groundwater and enter your home through the main supply line. Because it acts much like calcium, it can stay dissolved in water and won’t give off a taste, smell, or color to warn you. The only dependable way to know whether it’s present in a Sky Lake or Orange County supply is through water testing for radionuclides.
You use household water for cooking, making ice, bathing and brushing teeth — not just drinking — so any contaminant that reaches your taps becomes a whole-house concern. Point-of-use filters protect a single faucet but leave the rest of your Sky Lake home unaddressed. When testing shows a need for broader treatment, a properly chosen whole-house system delivers protection to every fixture and appliance across daily use in Central Florida’s hard-water conditions.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the single most effective filter choice for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That exchange process also captures other positively charged ions like strontium, so installing an ion exchange softener at the entry point provides treatment for all incoming water to your Sky Lake home.
To be effective in Sky Lake’s hard-water environment, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s water use and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium, and routine maintenance keeps performance consistent. Prefiltration to remove sediment is often recommended to protect the media, and Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend the right whole-house setup for your Orange County property.
