The Dangers of Hard Water
Hard water leads to a range of problems, from the immediate appearance of spots on dishes, dry skin, and soap scum buildup in showers, to more serious long-term issues like scale accumulation in dishwashers, showerheads, and faucets. It also affects appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, and water heaters, as well as your plumbing. Over time, scale buildup increases energy costs, reduces water flow, and clogs water outlets, leading to costly repairs and reduced efficiency.
Hard water is water that contains high levels of dissolved minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium ions. These minerals accumulate as water passes through soil and rocks, which can lead to a variety of issues in homes and businesses. While hard water is safe to drink, its high mineral ion content can cause problems such as scale buildup in pipes and appliances, reduced effectiveness of soap and detergents, and skin irritation. The higher the concentration of mineral ions, the “harder” the water is considered to be.
Smart Living offers a variety of Hard Water Solutions.
Salt Softeners work by replacing the calcium and magnesium in hard water with sodium through a process called ion exchange. This effectively removes the minerals responsible for hard water, leaving behind soft water. However, the downside is that these systems reduce the variety of minerals in the water and increase sodium levels. Additionally, they require regular salt refills and routine maintenance to rinse the salt media.
Saltless Water Softeners, also known as Water Conditioners, work by altering the structure of calcium and magnesium minerals in hard water rather than removing them. Through a process called Template-Assisted Crystallization (TAC), these systems encourage the minerals to form tiny, harmless crystals that remain suspended in the water, preventing scale buildup in pipes and appliances. Unlike traditional salt-based softeners, they do not add sodium to the water, making them a healthier option. Additionally, salt-free softeners require minimal maintenance, as they don’t need salt refills or produce wastewater, making them an eco-friendly choice for managing hard water.
Residential Water Softeners
Solve Residential Water Hardness and Quality Concerns
See where water softeners make the biggest difference.
Bathroom
Soap and shampoo will lather better. Hair and skin will feel noticeably cleaner, softer and not as dry. No soap scum or mineral deposits to clean off sinks, showers, tubs or toilets.
Laundry
Clothes will be softer, cleaner, whiter and brighter. Plus they will last longer. Using soft water increases the life of clothing, towels and linens up to 33%. Without hard water service issues, washing machines last longer too.
Kitchen
Dishes will clean more easily, and be spot free, without the film glasses get when etched by mineral-laden water.
Home
Water-using appliances will last longer and run better. Why? Because water heaters, washing machines and dishwashers using hard water can wear out up to 30% faster.
