Imagine turning on your kitchen faucet first thing in the morning to take your daily vitamins and prepare your breakfast meal of the day only to find your glass filled with cloudy and murky water. Not only is this less than appetizing to consume, but an excessive buildup of minerals in your home’s freshwater supply is nothing to be complacent about.
If anything, hard water can affect both your skin and pipes, from clogging up your pores to permanently damaging your plumbing fixtures and water-based appliances, including leaving behind limescale deposits and watermarks on everything from your toilet and bathtub to your hot water kettle and blender. These may be first-world problems, but you’d be surprised at the major difference a traverse-city water softener repair could make. Not only will your skin be left soft and supple during your daily cleansing and grooming routine due to the gentler texture of the water. But your home’s plumbing system will encounter less frequent clogs thanks to the reduced likelihood of calcium deposits building on the inside of your pipes and fixtures coalescing into a nasty blockage. Plus, if you are tired of the unsightly demise of your dishware and have noticed water or mineral spots on your dishware, including scratches, hard water is a likely culprit. Sooner or later, if you already own a unit, you’ll want to upgrade it or tweak its control valve or replenish its mineral or brine tank through a water softener repair.
