If you’ve noticed spots on your dishes, soap scum on your tile, or hard deposits around water fixtures, then you’ve probably got hard water. Containing high levels of minerals like calcium and magnesium, hard water isn’t harmful to one’s health, but it can cause major problems for your home’s plumbing system and water-using appliances.
You’re not without help. You can invest in a home water softener, and here’s what it can do for you:
- Leaves cleaner, shinier silverware, glassware, and flatware after washing
- Leaves softer, smoother skin and hair after bathing
- Creates a richer detergent, soap and/or shampoo lather using much less product
- Prevents soap scum and lime scale from accumulating on bathroom surfaces
- Maintains softer clothing, sheets, and towels with brighter, longer-lasting color
- Extends the life of your plumbing system and water-using appliances
- Improves the efficiency of water-using appliances
- Reduces greenhouse gas emissions caused by fuel and water consumption
- Allows your water heater to warm up water faster
- Reduces the risk of clogs and corrosion caused by mineral buildup
