All You Need to Know About Water Quality
Hard Water
Taste & Oder
Contaminants
Corrosiveness
Scale
A build-up of calcium and magnesium, known as scale, can reduce your water flow and block your drains, potentially leading to costly repairs for your home and appliances. It also causes common issues like water spots on dishes and stains on shower walls.
Chlorine/Chloramines
Municipal water treatment plants often use disinfectants that can impart an unpleasant taste and odor to your water. These chemicals can also have adverse effects on your skin, hair, appliances, and other household items.
Sulfer
Most notable for its distinct "rotten egg" smell.
Lead
Primarily caused by old pipes in homes built before 1989. Lead in your water can be extremely dangerous to your health.
Nitrates
High levels of contaminants, commonly found in well water due to septic tank leakage and fertilizers, can be life-threatening to
Acidity/LOW pH
Acid water, or water with a low pH level, can corrode sinks, faucets, hot water tanks, and plumbing lines, potentially leading to expensive repairs

Clean H2O Pro's Can Help!
While most water systems regularly test for lead to provide a system-wide overview, these tests don't reflect the conditions at specific household faucets. To ensure your home's drinking water is safe from lead, it's essential to have it tested directly. Testing is the only way to confirm the presence or absence of lead.

Well Water Issue
Households that rely on well water often need to test for various contaminants, including nitrates, nitrites, and bacteria, which can infiltrate through septic tank leakage or agricultural runoff. Well water is not regulated by municipal systems, making regular testing essential to ensure safety and avoid potential health risks, especially for vulnerable populations like newborns.

City Water Issues
Many homeowners experience persistent issues with hard water, such as mineral buildup on faucets and appliances, dry skin, and dull hair. These problems indicate the presence of high levels of calcium and magnesium in the water, which can be confirmed through water testing. Regular monitoring can ensure that your water softener is functioning effectively and help prevent further damage to household appliances and plumbing.

1. Do I Need a Water Softener?
Answer: Determining the need for a water softener depends on the hardness of your water. Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon (GPG) of calcium carbonate. Water with a hardness level above 7 GPG is considered hard and can benefit from a water softener to remove excess minerals like calcium and magnesium. Signs of hard water include difficulty in lathering soap, scale buildup on fixtures, and yellow stains on clothes
2. How Much Maintenance Does a Water Softener Require?
Answer: Water softeners require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance. This includes replenishing the salt in the salt tank periodically and having a professional inspection annually. Regularly checking for salt bridges (hardened salt) in the brine tank and monitoring the system’s performance can prevent issues. With proper maintenance, a high-quality water softener can last for many years
3. Is It Safe to Drink Softened Water?
Answer: Yes, it is generally safe to drink softened water. The amount of sodium added during the softening process is minimal. However, for individuals concerned about sodium intake, combining a water softener with a reverse osmosis system can further reduce sodium and other contaminants, ensuring safe drinking water. If you have health concerns related to sodium, opting for a potassium chloride softener is another alternative
