Money
Hard water can cost you hundreds of dollars each year!
Water softeners save so much money that they pay for themselves in the end. You will be saving money by taking care of your fabrics and reducing your energy bills.
By softening your water, you could:
- Buy less soap, shampoo, detergent, and household cleaners.
- Replace clothes and other fabrics less often.
- Reduce your fuel and electricity bills.
- Extend the life of appliances, plumbing, and fixtures.
Buy less soap, shampoo, detergent, and household cleaners!
When you use soft water, you will need to use less of your cleaning agents.
There are two main reasons for this:
- The hardness in water counteracts the alkalinity of a cleaner, such that some of the cleaner combines with the minerals in hard water to form a build-up. The amount of the cleaner that combines with the hardness minerals doesn’t lather or dissolve. Because less of the soap/shampoo/detergent lathers and dissolves, more is required.
- The build-up itself requires cleaning off (of your skin, hair, tub, appliances, etc.) so even more of the cleaning agent is required!
These factors have a big effect on your wallet!
In fact, a study conducted by the American Institute of Laundering determined that detergent and laundering costs can be twice as much in hard water as compared with soft water.
Replace clothes, bedding, and other fabrics LESS OFTEN with soft water!
Extend the life of your water-using appliances, plumbing, and fixtures!
There are several ways in which hard water will cause you to have to replace your appliances, plumbing, and fixtures earlier than you should have to:
- Appliances have to work harder and more often with hard water, and thus will have to be replaced sooner. Hard water forces you to run extra wash and rinse cycles in your washing machine and dishwasher. Likewise, hard water forces you to use appliances that heat water longer because it takes longer to get through the scale to heat the water.
- Scale insulates the heat source of any electric heating elements in your home. The insulating scale will cause appliances to overheat – and have to be replaced.
- Calcium and magnesium deposits can build up in pipes, decreasing your plumbing system’s performance. Eventually, pipes can become completely clogged.

- The build-up of deposits from hard water causes excessive wear on moving parts, causing premature failure of appliances.
- The effects of hard water are serious. A study by the American Water Works Association (AWWA) found that washing machines used with hard water can wear out up to 30 percent faster. This means that a washing machine that should last 10 years will last only 7 years when hard water deposits form in it.
