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 much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main supply line without any detectable taste, smell, or color. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present in your Tiger Point water is to have a lab test that includes radionuclides.
In Tiger Point homes, water is used for far more than drinking—cooking, ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on the same source. If a test shows elevated strontium-90, the most effective route to lower household exposure is treating the water at the entry point so every fixture is covered. A single point-of-use filter protects one faucet, but a whole-house system gives consistent protection throughout your Tiger Point residence.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the single-filter approach that best reduces strontium-90 because the resin exchanges dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Since strontium is chemically similar to calcium, the softener’s resin can capture positively charged strontium ions during the exchange process. That makes an ion exchange softener a practical choice for treating the water as it enters a Tiger Point home.
To be effective in a Tiger Point household, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your water usage and the mineral content present. Regular regeneration with salt renews the resin’s capacity to remove strontium, and routine maintenance helps the system keep performing. Often, adding a good prefilter protects the resin from sediment and extends its life; Mr. Pure Water can review your water test and recommend a whole-house softener setup tailored to reduce strontium-90 without unnecessary complexity.
