Hard and Rusty Water
How to Deal with Rusty and/or Hard Water
Most U.S. family homes have hard water. You notice this most when washing dishes, doing laundry, or showering. There’s excessive lime and chalk buildup in your sinks and showers. And even your skin and hair feel dry and itchy after you’ve washed.
If you have red or brown deposits in your sinks or drains, then you most likely have a high concentration of iron in your water. These are two common problems that can be addressed with different water conditioning solutions.
What is Hard Water?
Hard water is water that has collected a large amount of calcium, magnesium and other minerals in it. Hard water is not harmful to your health, but it is harmful to your home. Living in a home with hard water can be a costly problem. When dissolved minerals combine with heat, it leaves scale and buildup that damages pipes, appliances and fixtures.
