Home water softening systems offer many benefits for your household. Here are a few common advantages to a water softening system:
Household Cleaning Products: Hard water impairs the cleansing strength of detergents. Conditioned water delivers greater cleaning power by reducing the amount of soap needed by up to 70%.
Laundry and Garment Care: Your clothes will be softer, cleaner, whiter and colors will be much brighter. Using conditioned, soft water increases the life of clothing, towels, and linens up to 33%. Softened water will also lengthen the life of your washing machine.
Dishwashing and Glassware: Dishes and glassware will be easier to clean. They will also be spot-free, without the gray film glasses can get when etched by mineral laden water. Additionally, hands will feel softer and look better, as conditioned soft water is much easier on the skin. Softened water will also extend the life of your dishwasher.
Bathing and Showering: In the bathroom, your soap and shampoo will lather better and with less effort. Your hair and skin will feel noticeably cleaner, softer, and not as dry. Sinks, showers, tubs, and toilets will have less soap scum and grime.
Scale Prevention on Plumbing and Piping: Over a period of time, scale can form clogging plumbing. As the pipes clog, water flow is restricted and water pressure can be reduced dramatically. Water softening reduces these problems significantly.
Stain Eliminator: There will be no more unsightly rings, stains, or mineral build-up to darken bathtubs, showers and sinks. Softening water will preserve the beauty of faucet fixtures.
