Is Hard Water Hazardous?

It is important to understand that hard water is not dangerous to your health. Mineral-rich water can have slight health advantages, such as increasing your daily intake of magnesium and calcium. However, your pipes and hot water heater need protection from hard water.

Benefits of a Water Softener

Did you know that hard water can shorten the lifespan of your hot water heater and plumbing fixtures? When hard water is heated, the minerals can solidify into what our plumbers call “scale.” Scale buildup can force your hot water heater to work harder to put out the same amount of heat. This means that you have to pay higher energy bills for the same level of heat output. Installing a water softening system is the perfect solution for saving money on what could be a costly repair or replacement.
