Water softeners are beneficial for dishwashers, water heaters, and washing machines. Water softeners help remove unwanted hard water minerals (including iron, calcium and magnesium) from their water supply. Water softeners also prevent rust stains, nasty calcium deposits, hard water and mineral problems known for damaging plumbing systems, appliances and pipes. This makes cleaning and washing things easier and improves the overall taste of your water. Water softeners can also remove sulfur, which doesn’t cause hard water but is still an unwanted mineral nonetheless.

How Do Water Softeners Work?
Water softeners work by removing the minerals that cause hard water from the water supply. This process is done with a ion exchange resin, which replaces the calcium and magnesium particles with sodium or potassium ions. The result is effectively “softened” water — free of hardness-causing minerals – that can be used for bathing, laundry, cooking and cleaning purposes. By reducing mineral buildup on fixtures and appliances, softened water can also help extend their life span. Softer clothes last longer too! With regular maintenance and periodic regeneration, a top quality water softener can provide clean soft water for years to come.
What is Reverse Osmosis?
Reverse Osmosis is a water purification process that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove ions, molecules, and larger particles from drinking water. RO is also used to reduce the concentration of dissolved solids like salt, fluoride, and other minerals in water. RO systems are famous for making water better and healthier. Reverse osmosis also removes sediment and chlorine from the water supply. The entire process drives water through a semipermeable membrane to remove particles. After doing this, the water that leaves the membrane also goes through a post-filter process. RO water has a lot less impurities and contaminants. It has lower levels of sodium. It doesn’t have any bacteria or parasites either. Reverse osmosis is better water for cancer patients and better for overall health.

Benefits of Water Softeners?
Recent studies indicate 85% to 90% of homes and businesses in Southwest Ohio have issues with hard water. If you live in the Greater Cincinnati area and want to improve the quality of your water, you should call Cincinnati Plumbing & Drain right away. Our long list of benefits for installing a new water softener or water filtration system include the following:
Saves You Money
Soft water is free of the minerals and ions that cause buildup in plumbing systems, plumbing fixtures, pipes, and other appliances. Because this helps make your plumbing equipment last longer, it also saves you money from making expensive repairs. Whenever minerals build up in pipes, on surfaces and inside drains, it begins to narrow the water’s pathway. This can result in pressure that progressively gets worse as more accumulates over time. It can also increase the amount of energy necessary to keep water heated or to keep heated water inside water heaters. Mineral buildup can wreaks havoc on household appliances and other types of plumbing.
Softer Skin and Silkier Hair
Smoother feeling skin and stronger hair are additional benefits of water softeners. This is because chlorine and/or hard water minerals, which are much less common in water, are removed. Because your skin will not be as dry, you won’t need as much lotion after washing it when you have a water softener. With hard water, however, soap creates a curd rather than a lather. Because soap lathers much better with softened water, water softeners are better for your skin and hair.
Less Scum Build Up and Scale
Hard water can be a real nuisance, leaving scale deposits and calcium build-ups on fixtures around your home. But with the installation of a quality water softener comes many cleaning benefits – you won’t have to spend time scrubbing away at hardened residue or using as much detergent in order to get everything sparkling clean again! A great filtration system paired with softened water makes it easier than ever before for homeowners to keep their spaces looking spotless.
Keeps Dishes & Dishware Clean
The effects of hard water can be seen in every corner of your home. From the unsightly ring around sinks and bathtubs to stains on dishes, this omnipresent nuisance is difficult to get rid off – until now! By eliminating elements that make it “hard”, softened water not only gets you sparkling fixtures but also makes sure soap suds slide down the drain with ease.

What is hard water?
Water that contains a high concentration of minerals, particularly calcium and magnesium. These minerals can cause water to be harder to treat in municipal water treatment facilities and can also form scale on pipes and other water-using appliances over time. Additionally, hard water can make it more difficult to get subsiding action when using soap or detergent and can leave spots on dishes and glassware.
Guidelines standards for water classification include 0 to 60 milligrams per liter as calcium carbonate, which is classified as soft. From there, 61 to 120 mg per liter is considered moderately hard and 121 to 180 milligrams per liter is considered hard. Anything over 180 per liter as very hard.
