Do you know you are drinking hard water or soft water? We’ll explore the differences between hard and soft water, why water hardness is important, how it impacts your health or household, and what you can do about it.

Understanding Hard and Soft Water
The difference between soft water and hard water lies mainly in their mineral content. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, water can be categorized into four levels:

1. soft water
2. moderately hard water
3. hard water
4. very hard water.

In general, soft water offering a smoother and more pleasant taste. Additionally, soft water is less likely to produce scale when boiled, helping to keep appliances cleaner and in better condition.

The Drawbacks of Hard Water
1. Pipe Blockages:

Hard water leaves calcium deposits that can clog pipes and damage appliances like kettles and dishwashers, reducing efficiency and increasing maintenance costs.

2. Difficult Cleaning:

Hard water leaves stubborn mineral deposits on surfaces, making cleaning time-consuming and leaving areas looking dirty.

3. Dry Skin and Hair:

Minerals in hard water react with soap, leaving residues that dry out skin and hair.

4. Higher Cleaning Costs:

Dishwashers require softening salts and rinse aids to prevent mineral buildup on dishes, adding to expenses.

5. Reduced Energy Efficiency:

Scale buildup on heating elements increases energy use, raising electricity and gas bills.
