Hard water is a widespread problem for homes in this part of the country. It happens because our water supplies travel on, under, and around rock formations on the way to us. That results in high levels of the dissolved minerals that make water hard. Hard water can cause various plumbing issues and even affect the health of everyone in your home. At Gibson Plumbing & Mechanical plumbing company, we sell and install water softeners to solve hard water problems in Reno, NV. A water softener system is a cost-effective way to meaningfully improve the quality of your home’s water.
Affordable Reno Water Softeners
If you’ve noticed an odd white, chalky buildup on your home’s plumbing fixtures, you’re not alone. That substance is limescale, and it results from hard water depositing the mineral on the fixtures through which it flows. Unfortunately, your sinks and tubs aren’t the only places those deposits form. They will form inside your home’s supply and drain pipes. They can also occur inside your water heater.
Additionally, hard water will cause various other problems in your residence. It will prevent soaps and shampoos from lathering and rinsing correctly. It will also leave a hazy residue on all your glassware after washing. The good news is that a water softener system can safely eliminate all of those problems.
- Extending appliance life spans
- Preventing dry, itchy skin
- Reducing soap scum formation
- Producing cleaner, brighter laundry
- Improving plumbing efficiency
Most water softeners rely on an ion exchange system that replaces minerals in your water with harmless sodium ions. They do so by passing your home’s incoming water through a tank filled with brine-soaked resin beads. Those beads release sodium ions into the water while simultaneously attracting mineral ions. You can choose between sodium chloride and potassium chloride as your water softener’s sodium supply. The latter is an excellent option for those with salt sensitivities.
