Signs You Have Hard Water
Hard water contains excessive amounts of minerals like calcium and magnesium, leading to scale buildup in your plumbing. By recognizing signs of hard water in your home, you can implement the right solutions to extend your appliances’ lifespans and improve your water’s quality.
Some common signs you have hard water include:
- Soap scum: You don’t have to deal with residue left on bathtubs, sinks, and showers.
- Spotty dishes: Spots or a cloudy film on glasses and dishes mean they’re not as clean as they should be.
- Dry skin and hair: Increased dryness and irritation after bathing can make you feel uncomfortable, but there’s a solution.
- Dingy laundry: Clothes appearing dull and stiff after washing aren’t actually clean.
- Scale buildup: White, chalky deposits on faucets, showerheads, and inside appliances look dirty and can cause premature deterioration.
- Low water pressure: Clogged pipes from mineral deposits reduce water flow.
Why You Should Install a Whole-Home Water Softener
Len The Plumber Heating & Air offers expert whole-home water softener installation. We’ll follow all manufacturer guidelines so you can reap the benefits of enhanced water quality throughout your home, including:
- Pipe preservation: A water softener prevents mineral buildup, reducing blockages and corrosion and extending the lifespan of your water supply pipes so you won’t need premature repiping.
- Extended appliance lifespan: Improved water quality extends the life of water heaters, washing machines, dishwashers, and other plumbing appliances.
- Better soap lather: Soft water allows soap to lather more effectively and clean more thoroughly.
- Less scale: Water softener solutions protect against scaling on faucets, drains, and dishes, preserving their appearance and reducing the need for frequent cleaning.
- Cleaner clothes: Whole-home water softeners maintain the color, vibrancy, and durability of clothing and fabrics by preventing the damaging effects of hard water.
Whole-Home Water Softener Repair
Our team of local plumbers can provide expert repairs for your whole-home water softener system. Common water softener issues include:
- Salt bridging: Salt bridging forms a hardened layer that reduces the softener’s effectiveness in removing minerals from water.
- Resin degradation: The resin captures the minerals through ion exchange, so degraded resin causes inefficient water softening and potentially hard water output.
- Clogged brine line: A clogged brine line impedes the flow of brine needed for regeneration, compromising the softener’s ability to recharge resin beads and effectively soften water.
Whether it’s troubleshooting issues, replacing components, or performing routine maintenance, you can count on Len The Plumber Heating & Air for prompt and reliable service.
