Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can appear in water at very low concentrations. Because it acts a lot like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter homes through the main service line without any taste, smell, or visible change to the water. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present is to have your water tested for radionuclides, something every Crossings homeowner should consider if they’re concerned about contaminants.
In The Crossings, the water you use for cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth is the same supply that could carry strontium-90, so treating only a single faucet may leave the rest of the house unprotected. Point-of-use filters can be useful at one sink, but a whole-house solution treats water at the entry point and supplies every fixture. For families in Miami-Dade County who want consistent protection across daily activities, a properly chosen whole-house system is the more comprehensive option.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the single-filter approach most effective at reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Strontium behaves like other positively charged minerals, so the same exchange process that reduces hardness can also capture strontium ions. Installing an ion exchange softener at the main line gives The Crossings homes point-of-entry treatment that addresses both mineral hardness and strontium reduction without adding multiple complex devices.
To perform well in The Crossings—where Miami-Dade’s municipal supply is typically hard and warm, humid conditions encourage scale—you’ll need an ion exchange softener sized for your household water use and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin so it continues removing strontium over time, and routine maintenance plus a sediment prefilter helps protect the media from buildup that can shorten service life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a whole-house softener setup tailored to local conditions and your home’s needs.
