We service all your plumbing needs in Marinette and Oconto counties. we are conveniently located between Marinette and Crivitz. Hard water can be a
big problem, affecting almost every area of your life, but not a whole
lot of people know exactly what hard water is. In fact, if one hundred
random people on the street were polled, the majority of them would have
heard the phrase “hard water” – but very few of them would be able to
define precisely what that phrase is referring to. Water is referred to as “hard water” if it contains a lot of minerals
or metals. This makes sense, as you can think of the fact that metals
and minerals are hard – so if there are a lot of minerals in water, it
would also be referred to as hard. Minerals and metals that are often
found in hard water include calcium and magnesium, but other minerals
and metals can be found in there as well. These pollutants get into
groundwater by seeping in from the surrounding soil. We all know that hard water is “bad” – but what exactly is the problem with hard water? What kinds of problems can it cause? **Hard
water can cause calcium and magnesium to build up on the inside of
metal (such as pipes, tea kettles, coffee makers, water heaters –
anything that is made of metal that might have water inside of it). This
scaly buildup can cause water to run slow or take a lot longer to heat
up. Eventually, it can move from simply interfering with the movement of
water through your pipes to actually totally and completely blocking
it. **Hard water causes damage to fixtures like shower heads as well as
pipes. This damage occurs over time due of the buildup of minerals such
as lime and calcium. Steel pipes are especially susceptible to this type
of damage and it is advisable to replace them with copper, CPVC, or
ideally you would perform a PEX plumbing replacement. **Hard water is very difficult to use around the house for
daily activities. Soap is a lot more difficult to work up a lather with
if you are using along with hard water, for instance, and it also causes
soap to deteriorate in such a way that it develops an extremely
unpleasant scum-like residue. ** Hard water will leave your skin dry and scaly and your hair will not be moisturized and will feel dry as well. Precision Plumbing 715-789-2295 or visit:www.precisionplumbingwi.com |
