Hard water is a problem that costs people much more money than they realize. Bottled water is an obvious cost because the tap water has a metallic taste to it. Most people with hard water either purchase bottled water or get a purifying pitcher. That pitcher will require filters every two months, which means that option is almost as expensive as the bottled water. Water refiners in Gainesville FL can provide a solution.
Other Costs
A regular cost that is higher than it has to be is the plethora of cleaning supplies, detergents, and personal hygiene products found in every home. Hard water translates to more chemicals needed for cleaning and washing clothes and dishes because deposits accumulate on surfaces. People use more shampoo, soap, and conditioners because the water contains many particles. Skin becomes dry and more lotion is needed.
Hard water is also responsible for the fading, fraying, and premature wear of clothing. The components of the water break down fabrics and strip the garment of color. Replacing clothes is required more often than expected. Any items that enter the washing machine are subject to premature replacement.
Plumbing and appliances are affected as well. Lime scale build up can clog pipes which will result in frequent repairs. When particles build up in appliances, the motor has to operate at maximum capacity to force water through small lines. Ice makers in refrigerators, sprinkler arms in dishwashers, and even shower heads are less efficient when hard water is present. Consider those costs when researching water refiners in Gainesville FL.
Softening Hard Water
A water refining system throughout the entire home will eliminate all the costs associated with hard water. The investment will provide a full return in a matter of two to three years. There are other water conditions that may be causing the problem, so getting the water tested is the first step to determining which system will work best.
Free water testing is offered to start the process. There are many types of systems available to accommodate any needs and budgets. The solution depends on the results of tests, the number of occupants in the home, the number of bathrooms and water usage. Customers can browse our website for details on products and free testing.
