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 acts like calcium, it moves with groundwater and can enter a house through the main supply line — something homeowners in Tildenville should be aware of given our local water conditions. It doesn’t have a reliable taste, smell, or color to give any warning, so the only dependable way to find it is with water testing that includes radionuclides.
You’ll hear about strontium-90 mainly in discussions about drinking water safety, but water is used for more than drinking — cooking, ice makers, bathing, and brushing teeth all matter. If testing shows elevated strontium-90, the practical aim is to treat water at the point it enters the home so every faucet and appliance in Tildenville gets protection. Point-of-use filters can help a single sink, but they don’t guard showers, laundry, or irrigation; a correctly chosen whole-house system covers daily water use throughout your property.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter choice for reducing strontium-90 because its resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. That same exchange process that removes calcium and magnesium in hard water can also capture positively charged strontium ions, making ion exchange a practical option for treatment at the entry point to a Tildenville home.
To perform reliably, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s water use and for the hard water typical in central Orange County. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance preserves performance. In many installations, adding a prefilter helps keep sediment out of the softener media and extends service life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup for Tildenville that targets strontium-90 without making the system more complex than it needs to be.
