Hard Facts About Hard Water

What's the harm in hard water?

Hard water harms nearly every item in your home, leaving mineral deposits and scale build up on everything your water touches. Hard Water is especially tough on plumbing and on water-using appliances, resulting in more repairs and more frequent replacement - and costing Americans billions of dollars a year.

The consequences of hard water in the home:


  • Pipes become clogged with scale, reducing water flow

  • Water heaters scaled with mineral deposits require significantly more energy to heat your water

  • Rust stains on sinks

  • Faucets crusted with hard-to-remove deposits

  • Towels and clothes are dingy and rough

  • Glassware and dishes marred by spots and cloudiness

  • Increased expenses for detergent and other cleaning products

  • More time and effort devoted to cleaning
