North Florida is a beautiful place to live, but no place is perfect. One of the few downsides of living in The Villages and surrounding areas is that excess levels of magnesium and calcium in the water make it exceptionally hard. Thankfully, unlike inclement weather, or unpleasant neighbors, this problem can be solved simply and effectively through the use of water refiners in The Villages FL.
Judging water quality can be a bit of a challenge without specialized knowledge or equipment, but hard water generally makes itself known in a few recognizable ways. It reduces soaps’ ability to produce suds, which can impact how clean clothes, dishes, and any surfaces being cleaned around the house are able to get. If the mineral content is high enough there may be noticeable spots on dishes, even directly after washing, and a dingy gray residue on clothing. If tap water is used for cleaning counter tops and other surfaces these may also show signs of water marks.
Hard water is also much more abrasive than normal water, which can lead to accumulated damage to fragile glassware or clothing. Failing to invest in appropriate Water Refiners in The Villages FL can lead to favorite clothing items, glasses, or even exceptionally fragile porcelain, being damaged beyond repair. Water with high mineral content can be similarly damaging to plumbing. Minerals can, and often do, build up in pipes, water heaters, and other appliances. This causes the flow of water to be unduly limited, decreasing the lifespan of home appliances and plumbing fixtures, and increasing operating costs.
The extra money spent on soap, cleaning products, and water itself is quite literally money flushed down the drain, but that isn’t the only problem caused by unrefined water. Hard water can also lead to some unpleasantness in the shower for a home’s inhabitants. Often a larger amount of soap or shampoo are required to get hair and skin looking and feeling clean, and some amount of soap residue is almost always left over no matter how much time is spent scrubbing.
