There is a major difference between soft water and hard water. And Springfield, Mo. is one of those places where white buildup occurs on faucets, showerheads and within our appliances. But what is it and what does it mean?
The white buildup, also known as limescale, is actually mineral deposits from your water including calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals. Hard water is notorious for carrying these minerals, and the downside to hard water is that it can wreak havoc on your faucets, showerheads, and even your appliances such as your dishwasher, washer, and dryer (not to mention your pipes for plumbing). In fact, hard water can cut the life of your appliances by up to 50% depending on the mineral concentration in your water. Thankfully, the solution is looking into the benefits of soft water.
It is a fact that Springfield, Missouri, and surrounding areas have hard water, and as a soft water company servicing the Ozarks, we understand why so many people are turning to water softeners. There are many downsides to hard water, but first, let’s look at what hard water actually consists of.
Hard Water has a high mineral content, and it becomes hard by trickling through chalk and limestone. Chalk and limestone are made up of calcium and magnesium – this is why many people in the Ozarks notice a white buildup on their showerheads and faucets. This also explains why our dishes have water spots on them. It’s all due to hard water!
