Damaging Hardness Scale Build-up Unchecked

What Is Hard Water and Why Does It Matter?

Hard water contains high levels of calcium and magnesium. These minerals make everyday tasks harder and can cost you money in damaged appliances and increased cleaning costs. For example, hard water doesn’t allow soap to lather or clean as well as it should. This leads to soap scum on dishes, shower doors, and increased soap and detergent use.

Limescale Damage

Hard water minerals can also build up inside your pipes, reducing water pressure. They can also damage dishwashers, washing machines, and other water-using appliances.

Cleaning Challenges

Hard water makes soap and detergent less effective. You’ll use more cleaning products but get worse results. Laundry may look dull or feel stiff and scratchy, and fixtures can collect stubborn mineral deposits.

You’ll probably also notice your skin and hair feel dry after showering. This is because hard water minerals can strip away your skin and hair’s natural oils. They can also combine with soap and shampoo, creating a residue that is difficult to wash away.

Increased Costs

Your water heater and other appliances use more energy when you’re using hard water. Replacing damaged appliances and buying extra cleaning products adds up over time.

The same can be said for purchasing soap. Since hard water reduces lathering and cleaning ability, you’ll find yourself buying more shampoo, conditioner, soap, and laundry detergent.

Signs You Need a Water Softener

Hardness Level Classification (in Grains/Gallon or miligrams/liter)

You might have hard water if you notice:

White spots on dishes and glasses
Soap scum that’s hard to clean
Clothes that feel rough or look dull
Dry skin and hair after bathing/showering
Reduced water pressure
Scale buildup on faucets and showerheads
A water ring in the tub or toilet

Still not sure if you have hard water? We provide professional water testing to measure hardness levels and identify other water quality issues. Our certified technicians collect samples and provide detailed results.

Most homes with 3.5+ grains per gallon benefit from water treatment systems.

Professional Water Softener Installation

Our expert water softener installation service transforms your home’s water quality. We install high-efficiency water conditioning systems that use proven ion exchange technology to remove hardness minerals.

How Water Softening Works

During the ion exchange process, calcium and magnesium minerals are “exchanged” for small amounts of sodium. This proven water conditioning method eliminates hard water problems throughout your property.
