Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can travel with groundwater and enter homes through the main line. Because it behaves much like calcium, it dissolves into water and won’t announce itself with taste, smell, or color — the only reliable way to know if it’s present is through radionuclide-focused testing. Westwood Lakes homeowners concerned about unseen contaminants should consider testing to understand their household water quality.
In Westwood Lakes and the wider Miami-Dade area, tap water is used for everything from cooking and making ice to bathing and brushing teeth. While point-of-use filters can protect a single faucet, they leave the rest of the house exposed. If testing identifies elevated strontium-90, the most practical approach is treating water at the entry point so every fixture and appliance — from your kitchen faucets to laundry and showers in Westwood Lakes — receives the same protection.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most effective single-filter option for reducing strontium-90 because the resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Since strontium shares chemical behavior with calcium, it can be captured by that exchange process. For Westwood Lakes families looking for treatment at the home’s point of entry, an ion exchange softener is a straightforward, practical choice to address this type of contaminant.
To be effective in Westwood Lakes — where municipal water is typically hard and can contribute to mineral scale — an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household water use and overall mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium over time, and routine maintenance plus prefiltration helps prevent sediment from shortening media life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results and recommend a whole-house softener setup tailored to homes in Westwood Lakes and the surrounding Miami-Dade communities.
