Are you experiencing the uncomfortable effects ofย  hard water in your home? If you have hard water,
problems you may be experiencing are;ย  lackluster showers and baths with next to no
soapy lather resulting in soap scum left behindย  on your skin and hair, laundry that appears dull,
dingy and feels stiff, difficulty cleaningย  because of scale buildup on shower doors
and sinks, dishes that may be left with spots andย  a thin filmy residue after washing, excess scale
on your water-consuming appliances and fixturesย  shortening their lifespan. A water softener will
help to remove the hard minerals from yourย  water, making it more enjoyable to bathe in
without noticeable soap scum left on your skin andย  hair. Save your favorite clothes with brighter,
softer, cleaner laundry and with less scaleย  buildup. You’ll spend less time cleaning with
the Reliance Water Softener. You may also getย  better performance out of your plumbing fixtures,
pipes and appliances like your dishwasher,ย  coffee maker and humidifier. Reliance Water

When Buying a New Home, Ask about the Water

When youโ€™re looking at making changes to your house, itโ€™s important to factor in your homeโ€™s water. When completing a renovation, the last thing you want is to pick out brand new appliances, only to find out your hard water is potentially reducing their lifespan. A water softener can help combat some of these issues and help you to get the most out of your appliances.

A water softener can reduce scale build-up in your water-consuming appliances and fixtures by reducing the hard minerals in your water. This will help to ensure that your appliances continue to operate at their peak efficiency. With fewer spots being left on your drinking glasses and dishes, you may also find that youโ€™re more satisfied with your dishwasher.

Adding or replacing your water softener should also be considered if you plan to update your laundry machine during your renovation. The hard minerals in your homeโ€™s water can cause your clothing to feel stiff, and softening the water could help you get more out of your new laundry appliances and leave your clothes feeling softer.
