What Is Hard Water?

How Is Hard Water Bad?
Although generally not harmful to your health, hard water can cause a number of annoying problems in your property. The issues caused by hard water can be minor such as stains on dishes, or more severe such as significantly shortening the operating lifespan of appliances. This affects just about any household appliance that uses water. Hard water can cause many issues, including:
- Shorter lifespan for hot water heaters and other appliances.
- Increased utility bills as a result of decreasing water heater efficiency from scale deposits.
- Hard water deposits can slowly clog up pipes and reduce flow.
- Noticeable film and scale deposits can form on tiles and plumbing fixtures.
- White film on dishes and cutlery.
- Hard water can also necessitate the use of more detergent when washing dishes or laundry.
- Clothes not lasting as long, or worsen appearance over time.
- Finally, hard water can also have a direct effect on you, leading to drier skin and dull-looking hair.
- A noticeable taste when drinking water or beverages made with water like tea and coffee.
How Can A Water Softener Rental Help?
A water softener is a filtration system that removes the dissolved minerals that are most commonly present in water systems, such as calcium and magnesium. Once it is treated through the water softening system, the only ion present is sodium. This ‘softening’ process provides superior water clarity and less abrasive water. In short, soft water is water with low counts of calcium or magnesium, though there are often trace elements of other dissolved minerals. A rating of 1 grain per gallon or less is considered soft, which comes to about 17 milligrams per liter of calcium and/or magnesium. Most water softeners bring the rating to 10 milligrams or below depending on the quality.
Anything above 1 gpg is considered at least somewhat hard. Furthermore, a 3.5 rating is considered the median. A 10 gpg rating is extremely hard and potentially damaging to pipes and appliances over time.
With our water softener rentals, a new whole home water softening system can be installed to cleanse the water of those abrasive minerals and make your water better and more pleasant.

What Are The Benefits Of Soft Water?
Soft water has a number of benefits that many individuals take for granted. That is because they do not know that these benefits can be traced almost directly to the softness of the water.
Enjoy the following benefits with your new water softener rental:
- Easier Cleaning: Less detergent needed. Longer-lasting appliances. No deposits and water scum on your clothes, dishes, and everything else.
- Healthier Skin: Enjoy softer, healthier-feeling skin. Hard water can leave residue and lead to your skin feeling dry and unclean. Not anymore!
- Longer-Lasting Clothes & Appliances: No more worrying about hard water damaging your clothes and expensive appliances like your hot water heater.
- Increased Water Flow & No Clogged Pipes: mineral deposits slowly clog up and damage your plumbing.

This water softener benefits only scratch the surface of what a family can expect using this kind of welcoming water. It simply feels better, and this plays out in great detail in every area of the home. On the surface, calcium and magnesium are not traditionally harmful to the body. In small quantities, it is perfectly acceptable. The problem is when city records indicate high ratings. Families should seriously consider the assortment of benefits to soft water, both small and large.
