Benefits of Installing a Water Treatment System

There are many different problems which can be caused by hard water. Hard water causes magnesium and calcium to separate and create scale, which can then build up inside your pipes and water heater equipment. If you have found that your system is being negatively affected by scale build-up, our water treatment system experts may recommend the installation of a water softener.

The benefits of installing a water treatment system include:

• Cleaner, better tasting water
• Cleaner clothing and dishes
• Better water pressure in the shower
• Improved appliance performance

Combat Hard Water with a Water Softener

Hard water (water which contains many minerals) not only clogs your pipes and makes it hard for water to flow, it can also have a reaction with your soap. Instead of lathering up, soap can form a sticky scum which sticks to everything. Installing a water softener is a cost-effective way to improve the quality of water in your home while simultaneously extending the life of your equipment.

5 Signs You Need a Water Softener

1.Reddish brown stains on your plumbing appliances – If you’re seeing these stains in your toilet or shower, you can get them out with bleach and detergent, but that’s just a band-aid solution. Your water has minerals in it that are causing this staining and until you fix that, the stains will continue to appear.

2.Low water pressure across the board – When your water has more minerals in it than usual, it will be heavier than normal which will cause it to come out of your sink and shower head at a slower rate than when it’s lighter.

3.Your washing machine doesn’t seem to be doing it’s job – So if you ever feel as though your washing machine or your detergent isn’t getting the job done, consider your water. Hard water has a hard time mixing with soaps and detergents so it might be time to consider water softener installation.

4.Dry skin or hair – Hard water has a way of leaving our skin and hair dry and flaky because the water doesn’t mix well with the soap or shampoo that you’re using.Since they don’t mix you might end up blocking your skin’s pores with an extra layer of soap.

5.Plumbing repair after plumbing repair – Not only does hard water have an impact on your skin and appearance of your plumbing appliances, hard water takes a toll on the innards of your plumbing too. If you’re ever finding that you need plumbing repair after plumbing repair of various appliances, contact our water softener installation experts because it’s likely your water that’s causing these problems.
