Softener Technology
The phrase “hard water” was coined many years ago when people found that this type of water made things difficult to clean. Hard water does allow soaps to become frothy, which made cleaning clothes, dishes, utensils and other things much more difficult. These people later learned that it was certain minerals in the water, including calcium and magnesium, that made their once high quality water – hard.
However, they also later learned that certain processes were making their water softer. They found out that when their water was filtered through layers of soil, it removed the minerals from the water that were making it hard. The soil that removed the magnesium, calcium and other minerals from the water had a natural compound called “zeolites.” Over the years, people learned how to synthetically produce the zeolites to treat hard water everywhere.
Today, water softeners and water filters are made especially for different ratios of minerals found in hard water. This type of strategic treatment is much more efficient. There are a few technologies at play in modern water softeners, including:
- Sensors: Some softeners can sense the hardness of the water, but this technology isn’t fully developed and is not fully reliable yet. It can be more expensive than other technologies.
- Twin tanks: This form is meant to be efficient. The softener alternates between your two tanks of water so you always have soft water on hand. However, it also has a higher cost than other types.
- Electric wires: Connecting electric wires to the entry point of water into your home can reportedly change the hardness of your water. However, evidence shows that it is not as effective as other treatments.
- Ceramic beads: Ceramic beads covered in a catalyst are supposed to get those troublesome minerals out of the water.
Before you choose an installation and repair method that you think is best for transforming your hard water, you’ll need a professional to come and complete a water test.
Why You Need Water Softener Service in Central PA
Water softeners are a necessary process for many parts of the country, and especially in Central PA. This area is known for having a lot of limestone deposits, which give the water a hard quality. Hard water has ions of magnesium and calcium. Hard water isn’t hazardous, but it can have negative effects on your home’s plumbing and other appliances.
Hard water helps create soap scum, makes dishes spotty when they come out of the dishwasher, can gray your clothes and contribute to mineral buildup on faucets. Hard water can also lead to dry skin. Although hard water isn’t dangerous, it can be a serious nuisance. Have you tried scrubbing the mineral buildup off your sink’s faucet but couldn’t get it off? Do your dishes still feel a little dirty even after they’ve been washed?
Adding softeners to your home’s water will prevent all of these things from happening. It gives you crisp and clear water — all the time. Using water softeners helps protect your skin, your dishes, your clothes and your faucets and other hardware. You don’t have to worry anymore about that eyesore of mineral buildup on your home water faucets or have spotty dishes with your current water system.
