Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive isotope of strontium that can occur in water at trace concentrations. Because it behaves much like calcium, it can dissolve in groundwater and travel into homes through the main supply line, and there’s no reliable taste, smell, or color to signal its presence. The only way to determine whether it’s in your water is with laboratory testing that looks specifically for radionuclides — something we recommend for Tropical Park homeowners who want certainty about their water.
In Tropical Park households, water is used for far more than drinking — cooking, making ice, bathing and brushing teeth all involve your home’s water. If testing identifies elevated strontium-90, reducing exposure means treating water at the point it enters the house so every faucet and shower is covered. Point-of-use devices protect a single tap, but they leave the rest of your plumbing and appliances exposed; a properly chosen whole-house system gives consistent protection across your entire home and can help limit scale buildup common with Miami-Dade’s hard, limestone-influenced water.
When a single whole-house filter is the goal, an ion exchange water softener is often the most practical choice for reducing strontium-90 because it swaps positively charged ions on resin media for sodium or potassium. Because strontium behaves chemically like other divalent cations, the resin can capture it during the exchange process. For Tropical Park homes where treatment at the service entry is desired, a properly sized whole-house softener provides treatment to every fixture and appliance.
To perform reliably in Tropical Park — where hard, limestone-influenced water can increase scale — an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household’s flow and mineral load and regenerated regularly with salt to recharge the resin. Routine maintenance and good prefiltration help protect the media from sediment and extend its life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener and prefilter configuration that targets strontium-90 reduction while also addressing local water hardness and protecting plumbing and appliances.
