Every homeowner wants clean water. For over thirty years, Tri-Florida Water has brought our state-of-the-art water softener system to Polk County, Florida. Many homeowners are concerned with hard water. Not only in Auburndale but in Lakeland and Winter Haven as well. What are the harmful effects? What harm will it bring to my family? These questions will be answered, but first, we need to know what hard water is.
What Is Hard Water?
It is water that contains high levels of calcium and magnesium. The sources of hard water may naturally come from the flow of groundwater from rivers, wells, lakes, and spring water that passes through limestone, chalk, and gypsum deposits. This hard water can be found in your drinking and washing water.
What Are The Signs of Hard Water?
- White chalky residue after washing dishes.
- Soap scum in sinks, tubs, and showers.
- The laundry looks dull and has a rough feeling.
- There is a film on your hands after washing them.
- Scale buildup on your faucets and coffeemaker.
What Effects Will I Experience?
- Your usual soap and detergent no longer works as it used to.
- You may experience dry skin.
- When washing your hair, shampoo and conditioner don’t rinse out well.
- Dishwashers, washing machines, and other water-using appliances are not as efficient.
Are There Health Concerns with Hard Water?
There is no real health hazard with hard water, according to the National Research Council. It may also contribute a small amount of magnesium and calcium to your diet.
What Are The Solutions?
