What is hard water?
Hard water is saturated with dissolved limestone rock which breaks down as calcium, magnesium and hydrates of calcium. Practically speaking, in your home it is “useless water”, except for growing grass and putting out fires.
How do water softeners work?
A water softener removes the hardness minerals before they ever come into your home. This prevents the scale build-up on your faucets, fixtures, appliances, tile and other surfaces.
A water softener provides you with water that will clean better with 80% less soap. Your water heater will work more efficiently and last twice as long. And that’s not all…
Simply, “how they work” could be described as FOR, not AGAINST you.
Are they easy to maintain?
Yes. And fun. When you fully realize the benefits it’s a pleasure.
How do I save money using a water softener?
You put it in the bank.
How much soap or shampoo do I use?
