Among the many issues associated with water, especially in the domestic circle, hard water is an undesirable condition of water when it consists of harmful minerals like calcium or magnesium. Nevertheless, there is little need to be worried about hard water since a number of new technologies have been invented and successfully implemented with the help of efficient plumbing companies like us.
Our plumbers at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, “The Punctual Plumber”, are well-trained in serving our customers by following state-of-the-art methods for water softening. Being in customer service since many years, we realize the importance of using water softeners to remove the unwanted and harmful hardness of water that you use for various domestic purposes.
Even though water softening is based on the same principle as water filtration, the resources slightly differ. For example, many kinds of salts like rock salt, evaporated salt and solar salt are used as softening agents. At the same time, our factory-trained plumbers take care to use the correct proportion of salts to avoid their buildup.
We insist that you realize the importance of eliminating the hardness in your water since:
- Hard water generally has very high amounts of minerals like iron, calcium and magnesium. These minerals deposit in the household appliances like kettles and disturb their functionality.
- In addition, they also turn out to become stubborn deposits in pipe lines and water heaters, causing them to be clogged. Once the pipe lines become clogged, naturally, other issues like burst pipes or broken and/or damaged pipe lines may cause nightmares to you. Sometimes, even plumbing emergencies arise due to clogged pipe lines.
- The minerals that cause hardness in water also make it less effective by blocking formation of lather. Thus, you face much difficulty while doing activities like washing, laundry, bathing, etc. The cleaning efficiency of detergents is reduced by minerals present in hard water.
To increase the usability of hard water, our plumbers use simple yet effective water softeners like sodium carbonate. A system called zeolite is used to cleanse the hard water and make it soft and usable. Through this method, sodium ions are used to remove the ions consisting of calcium and magnesium and there is no possibility of precipitation. Thereby, the undesirable effects of hard water like bathtub rings are for the most part eliminated.
