What Does Hard Water Mean?
Most Yorkton homeowners know the term ‘hard water’, but you might not know what that means or what causes hard water. When water is called hard, it means that there’s a high mineral content in the water. When water flows over rocks, it picks up minerals like calcium and magnesium. When you have high concentrations of these minerals, it makes water ‘hard’.
What Are the Effects of Hard Water?
While hard water isn’t bad for your health, it does cause a variety of issues that can be annoying or costly, such as:
- Tub, toilet, and shower stains.
- Appliances like coffee makers, washing machines, and dishwashers have shortened lifespans.
- Stiff, scratchy clothes.
- Spots on glasses and silverware.
- Dry skin, and flat hair.
- Soap scum buildup.
- Clogged pipes.
- Calcium deposits on faucets and fixtures.
Many people suffer from these and other issues caused by hard water, but you can alleviate these and other problems with a home water softener.

Types of Water Softeners
The two most common home water softeners are salt-based and salt-free water softeners. Both methods offer the benefits of reduced calcium and scale buildup, less soap scum, and spot-free dishes. However, some homeowners prefer salt free systems because they have health issues caused by increased sodium intake.
