What is water hardness?
“Water hardness” is also known as hard water. Hard water contains high levels of the minerals calcium and magnesium. When water travels from its source to a residential home, these minerals are picked up and are carried in the water. The more minerals come in contact with the water, the harder the water. Water hardness levels vary across the United States. Check out our Water Hardness Scale blog post for more details.
To combat hard water, you can invest in a water softener system. A water softener turns hard water into soft water. Soft water can help eliminate issues that develop from hard water: stains on fixtures, spots on dishes, build-up in pipes and appliances - all issues that can be costly to homeowners.
