Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can dissolve in groundwater and enter homes through the main water line. Because it behaves much like calcium, it travels with water and won’t announce itself with a taste, smell, or color. The only reliable way to know whether it’s present in your Treasure Coast water is a lab test that includes radionuclides.
Families on the Treasure Coast use water for drinking, cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth, so if testing shows elevated strontium-90 the priority is treating water before it reaches every fixture. A point-of-use filter can protect a single tap, but it won’t cover appliances, showers, or outdoor spigots. A correctly chosen whole-house system gives consistent protection across your Port St. Lucie, Stuart, or Vero Beach home.
The most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 at the entry point is a whole-house water softener using ion exchange. The resin inside the softener swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium and can capture positively charged contaminants like strontium. Because strontium-90 is chemically strontium, an ion exchange softener can reduce it while treating hardness—making this a practical choice for Treasure Coast homes with moderate hardness.
To perform well in a Treasure Coast residence, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household water use and the mineral load. Regular salt-based regeneration restores the resin so it continues removing strontium, and routine maintenance helps maintain consistent performance. Adding a sediment prefilter is often wise to protect the resin from coastal sediment and aging plumbing that can cause corrosion; Mr. Pure Water can review your test results and recommend a whole-house setup tailored to your home.
