WATER SOFTENER CONSIDERATIONS

Whether you have a private well or are on town water supply, a water softener can improve your home’s overall water quality.  Water Softening will be very effective on removing hard water minerals (magnesium & calcium), iron or manganese.  Small amounts of these minerals can have large affects on your water quality. Hard water can have damaging affects on your plumbing distribution system and create scaling, staining and difficulty in cleaning fixtures, surfaces, etc.

OTHER AFFECTS OF HARD WATER, IRON, MANGANESE

Hard water affects include corrosion and scaling inside pipes, staining throughout the home’s showers, bathtubs, and sinks and destruction of hot water heaters way ahead of their useful life (scale build-up inside hot water heaters can insulate the temperature sensor inside the tank causing them to work much harder to bring the temperature up to the set level). Iron and manganese in water can create rusty or black/brown staining and corrosion in the home as well. For more on hard water, see hard water USGS.
