Including filter system and high-performance Strontium filter.
Strontium is a naturally occurring element that can dissolve into groundwater as it moves through certain rocks and soils. In low concentrations it often causes no change in taste, odor, or appearance, so visual checks won’t reveal it. The only reliable way for Lewis homeowners to know what’s in their water is to look at a lab test or a water quality report. Many local residents choose whole-house systems so treatment happens before water reaches every faucet in the house.
Homeowners usually become concerned about strontium after testing shows higher levels, particularly when they want to limit long-term exposure for family members. Strontium is not an aesthetic issue like chlorine taste or sulfur smell and isn’t removed by basic carbon-only filters. A point-of-use filter at a kitchen sink can improve drinking water, but it won’t treat water used for cooking, bathing, or brushing teeth. For Lewis households seeking consistent protection throughout the home, whole-house treatment is the more comprehensive option.
The most effective single-filter approach for reducing strontium is reverse osmosis (RO), which uses a semi-permeable membrane to reject many dissolved minerals. Unlike sediment or carbon filters that target particles or chlorine, RO is designed to address contaminants that are fully dissolved in water. Many homeowners choose RO when testing identifies inorganic minerals that need targeted removal, because when sized and maintained correctly it can reliably lower dissolved mineral content over time.
At Mr. Pure Water in Lewis, we can pair an RO system to your household needs based on your water chemistry and daily flow requirements. Proper pre-filtration helps protect the RO membrane from sediment and chlorine that can shorten its life, so the system runs efficiently. Regular filter and membrane replacement after installation keeps reduction consistent and preserves water pressure and taste. For Lewis homeowners wanting whole-home confidence, an RO-based solution is a practical way to reduce strontium throughout the house.
