Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive form of strontium that can occur at very low levels in groundwater. Because it behaves much like calcium, it moves with groundwater and may reach a house through the main service line without any change in taste, odor, or color to warn you. In Whittier—where local supplies often draw from South Florida aquifers—radionuclide testing is the only reliable way to confirm whether strontium-90 is present in your household water.
You use water for much more than drinking: cooking, making ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all rely on your supply. Point-of-use devices protect a single faucet, but they won’t stop contaminants from reaching appliances, showers, or outside spigots. For Whittier homeowners who want protection across every fixture, treating the supply at the entry point with a correctly chosen whole-house system is the most consistent way to lower overall exposure if testing indicates elevated strontium-90 levels.
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 is chemically similar to calcium, it can be captured by the same exchange process, making an ion exchange softener a practical choice for point-of-entry treatment in Whittier homes dealing with hard South Florida water.
To perform well in Whittier’s typically hard water, an ion exchange softener should be sized to match your household’s water use and mineral load. Regular regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium, and routine maintenance—plus a good prefilter to guard against sediment—helps prolong media life. Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your water test and recommend a whole-house softener setup that targets strontium-90 effectively without unnecessary complexity.
