Including filter system and high-performance Strontium-90 filter.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive isotope of strontium that can appear in water at trace concentrations. Because it behaves like calcium, it travels with groundwater and can enter a residence through the main line, and it won’t produce any taste, odor, or visible sign to alert you. The only reliable way for Zellwood homeowners to know whether it’s present is to have water tested specifically for radionuclides.
In Zellwood houses—whether in the Zellwood Station area, near Lake Apopka, or toward Wekiwa Springs—water is used for many daily tasks beyond drinking: cooking, ice, bathing, and brushing teeth all matter. If test results show elevated strontium-90, reducing exposure means treating water at the point it enters your home so every fixture is covered. Faucet-mounted or under-sink point-of-use filters protect a single tap, but a whole-house system gives continuous protection for showers, clothes washers, and outdoor spigots across the whole Orange County household.
A whole-house water softener using ion exchange is often the most practical single-filter choice for reducing strontium-90 because its resin swaps certain dissolved ions for sodium or potassium. Because strontium ions are chemically similar to calcium, the ion exchange process can capture strontium as water passes through the tank. For many Zellwood homes dealing with hard, mineral-rich groundwater, this approach treats water at the entry point so treated water reaches every faucet and appliance.
To be effective in Zellwood’s hard-water conditions, an ion exchange softener must be sized for your household water use and mineral load. Routine regeneration with salt restores the resin’s ability to remove strontium, and basic maintenance plus a prefilter to remove sediment will help the media last longer. Mr. Pure Water can look over your test results and recommend a whole-house softener and prefiltration setup that targets strontium-90 without adding unnecessary complexity.
