Water Softeners
After washing your dishes does your glassware and cutlery appear cloudy? Do you notice stains on the surfaces of your bathtub, shower doors, ceramic tiles, faucets and fixtures? Does your laundry seem grimy or unclean after running it through your washing machine? You may have a residential hard water problem! The water in your greater Ottawa area home may seem sparkling clean with glass-like clarity, but it could contain many types of contaminants such as ferrous iron, calcium, magnesium, ferric iron, or acidic properties. Water hardness can cause many other problems that you may not be aware of in your residential setting:
- Accumulation of water scale deposits in pipes, plumbing, water heaters and appliances. This diminishes overall water flow and the effectiveness of heaters, washing machines etc., and causes a reduction in appliance lifespan and a loss of heating energy.
- Iron residue that settles on the walls of pipes, stains clothing and leaves a metallic taste in food and beverages.
- Corrosion of pipes and sanitary appliances (toilets, sinks, showers, bathtubs, bidets, wash basins and drinking fountains).
- Ferro (iron) bacteria in toilet water causing reddish iron staining in its bowl, and compromising its function.
It can be difficult to measure your residential waters hardness and the presence of contaminants such as these. An effective way to confirm both hardness and contamination is to have a sample of your residential water analyzed by a professional technician from Hills & Valley Water Systems Inc. Our water analysis service will visit your home in Ottawa, Pembroke, Gananoque, Morrisburg, Cornwall, Hawkesbury, Smiths Falls or Arnprior, Ontario to determine which, if any, contaminants reside in your homes water, and will also confirm its level of water hardness. From there, our highly skilled technicians can help you select, and will promptly install the best choice of residential water softener for your home.
