Water hardness is a common issue in many drinking water sources, including wells. It refers to the concentration of dissolved minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium, in the water. While water hardness is not harmful to health, it can present various aesthetic challenges that affect the water's taste, appearance, and overall usage.
Scale Buildup:
One of the most noticeable effects of water hardness is the formation of scale deposits. As hard water flows through pipes, heating elements, and plumbing fixtures, it leaves behind mineral deposits that accumulate over time. This scale buildup can clog pipes, decrease water flow, and reduce the efficiency of water heaters and appliances. At Total Wells Pumps and Filtration, we offer water softening solutions to combat scale buildup, ensuring your plumbing systems remain unobstructed.
Soap Scum and Reduced Lathering:
Water hardness can hinder the effectiveness of soaps and detergents. The presence of calcium and magnesium ions in hard water forms insoluble soap scum, making it challenging to achieve a good lather while washing dishes, clothes, or even during personal hygiene. We can install water softening systems that reduce water hardness, allowing soaps and detergents to perform optimally and produce a richer lather.
Spots and Film Residue:
When hard water evaporates, it leaves behind mineral residues that manifest as unsightly spots and films on glassware, dishes, and surfaces. These residues can make your glassware appear cloudy and affect the cleanliness of surfaces. With our water softening solutions, you can bid farewell to spots and film residue, enjoying sparkling glassware and spotless surfaces.
