What is Hard Water In Fort Collins?
What is hard water? The term “hard water” refers to water contaminated with minerals that can leave deposits on plumbing fixtures, sinks, and more. In addition to staining and leaving unsightly deposits on your fixtures (as well as being able to clog your fixtures), hard water also makes it more difficult for soaps to lather and for you to rinse your hair after a shower. Hard water is also the culprit behind water spots on windows and cars. The most common minerals that cause hard water include calcium and magnesium.
What Does a Fort Collins Water Quality Test Test For?
A water quality test tests for several different contaminants in your drinking water. Some of the nastier (and unfortunately more common) contaminate tested for with a water quality test include:
- Lead
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Nitrates
- Arsenic
- pH
- TDS (Total Dissolved Solids)
- Alkalinity
- And more
Do I Need a Fort Collins Water Softener?
Generally, if you do not have hard water, you most likely do not need a water softener. However, minerals that cause hard water are not the only things water softeners remove from your home or business’ drinking water. Some things removed from water with a water softener include:
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Other ions and minerals that cause hard water
