What is Hard Water?

Hard water is water which contains dissolved chalk, lime and other minerals. Rainwater is naturally soft, but as it percolates through chalk and limestone in the Earth, it dissolves and collects these minerals. Rainwater which falls on hard rock remains naturally soft.

The hardness of the supply of mains water to your home is dependent on where you live and the source (river or ground water) of your mains water supply.

Water Softeners Explained

What Are Water Softeners?

Water softeners are a system that is placed in your home to remove limescale. Limescale is the hard, off-white, chalky deposit you can see in kettles, hot-water boilers and the inside of hot-water central heating systems that have not been maintained as well as they should be. It is also often found as a caked deposit on the inner surface of old pipes and other surfaces where “hard water” has evaporated as in this picture on the left. Other than being unsightly and harder to clean, limescale seriously impairs the operation or can eventually damage various components of the heating system.
These deposits act as a kind of internal insulation on your pipe work; reducing their efficiency and can eventually lead to serious damage of piping systems.
By installing a water softener, an average family of four can save upwards of €534 per annum. Maintenance of your water softener is as simple as adding softener salt once a month to the system.

What Do Water Softeners Do?

Water softeners help you Re-discover the simple pleasures of soft water:

no scale formations on your electrical and water appliances
softer on your skin and hair
softer on your clothing
your heating system will be 40% more effective
no ‘water-marks’ on your sinks, baths or toilets
no scum forming on hot drinks; with a noticeable taste difference
lower detergent costs due to the easier formation of lather

Water Softeners do not “add” salt to the water, they simply use a salt water solution, in order to back-wash the filter, which is then rinsed with fresh water. Lime removal gives peace of mind and results in great cost savings. We will be happy to look after your sales and service requirements.

We use only the highest rated water softening systems on the market.

What is Wrong with Hard Water?

Shorter life of home appliances.

Appliances with heating elements are most affected. Your kettle, dishwasher and washing machine require more servicing and repair.

You have to use more detergent.

Goods and kitchen utensils become encrusted with insoluble deposit, which is why your detergent use may rise.

You spend more electricity.

Limescale-afflicted heating elements consume more power to heat water. 25% to 57%

Hard water also affects your health.

When absorbed by human body, hardness salts promote formation of kidney stones.

Clothes wear out quickly

Hard water renders cloth more fragile and brittle. Therefore, your clothes tend to tear and fade faster than if they were washed with soft water

Hair & Skin Irritation

Your hair becomes dry and brittle, you cannot even begin to get rid of dandruff and your skin may develop rashes.
