We typically focus on everything “water” including water health and water heaters during the colder months. These are the months when you need warm water and clean, effective water. This isn’t the only time of year that you need great water, though. You need it year-round, and we’re prepared to help you get it.
We want you to start with a water softener in Henderson, NV this season. It can do a lot of good for your home. If you’re wondering how we can get into the details below. We’re prepared to help you get exactly what you’re looking for.
What Are Water Softeners?
Water softeners are a system that’s designed to soften the hard water in your home.
“Hard water” is water that contains a high level of mineral content. Hard water is bad for your plumbing system because it leads to decreased water pressure and pipes that wear down faster.
A water softener is a whole-house water treatment system that can help you work around this. Water softeners have two tanks—a mineral tank and a brine tank. The resin beads in the mineral tank attract the minerals in your hard water. This softens the water. Then, the brine tank contains a brine solution (aka saltwater) that flows into the resin tank. This solution rinses the beads and exchanges the sodium for the hard water minerals on the resin beads.
It’s important to note that water softeners do add a little bit of sodium to your home’s water supply. It’s not enough to affect the taste of your water, but it’s something to be aware of.
What Does Hard Water Do To Your Home?
Water softeners can do a lot for your home because hard water is so detrimental. More than 85% of Americans have hard water. Here are a few ways that it can affect your home:
Helps Your Plumbing
Removing hard water helps your plumbing.
Hard water is, well, hard on your plumbing. Over time, the effects of hard water will wear down your plumbing system. You’ll notice that your plumbing struggles to perform when and where you need it to. You might even notice more repair needs like clogs and leaks. Helping your plumbing is incredibly important. This is the best way to keep your home in great shape.
Removes Those Annoying Side Effects
Hard water has a lot of annoying side effects. Do you struggle with skin that feels itchy and tight after a shower? What about hair and nails that are brittle and breaking? Are your dishes littered with those annoying milky white spots after a run through the dishwasher? These are all hard water problems! You can get a better quality of life by removing these side effects.
Improves Water Pressure
If you’ve noticed that your home’s water pressure has greatly decreased, then a water softener can be what helps it improve. Improved water pressure is important for long-lasting, quality service. Make sure that you’re investing in yours.
