In homes, hard water can and will deteriorate plumbing fixtures and appliances, leading to premature replacement of fixtures and pipes. As an example, when water heaters are exposed to hard water, the dip tube will corrode and mineral deposits build up in the tank. A plumber can charge anywhere from $80.00 to $100.00 to just flush a water heater out. Granite and Marble counter tops are susceptible to corrosion as well. Chrome appliances (as well as brass) collect the calcium build-up from the water and require constant cleaning.

Removing hardness from one’s water helps save a home’s plumbing and keeps fixtures and appliances looking like new. Another benefit of soft water is a reduction of soaps and detergents used in the home. Dishes will come cleaner and clothes will keep their color longer.
