Water Softening

Water softening is the removal of calcium, magnesium and certain other metals in hard water. Soft water is more compatible with soap ,shampoo and laundry detergents and allows you to use less amounts. Water softening also extends the lifetime of your plumbing. Conventional water-softening appliances intended for household use reduce the water hardness by replacing magnesium and calcium with sodium or potassium ions. Waste water eluted from the ion exchange column containing the unwanted calcium and magnesium salts are typically discharged into the sewage system. Call De Hart Plumbing to get your water tested and discuss the benefits of having a water softener installed in your home.
