Hard Water is a high concentration of mineral content.<\/h3>\n

Minerals such as iron, calcium and magnesium are common in well water.\u00a0 Almost 85% of homes in America have hard water to some degree. Wells in Connecticut are prone to these conditions which can be unsightly, create an odor and wreak havoc on well water systems.<\/p>\n

Things you may be noticing if you have hard water:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u221a Your shampoo and soaps don’t lather properly
\n\u221a Your shower doors and fixtures are spotting white
\n\u221a Your furnace or water heater coil is becoming clogged
\n\u221a Your faucet or shower heads are developing scale<\/p>\n

“Hardness” is measured in grains per gallon (gpg) of calcium and magnesium in the water supply. \u00a0The higher the level of hardness, the more inefficient and unpleasant household cleaning becomes. \u00a0The solution is a WATER SOFTENER SYSTEM<\/a><\/strong> which saves you money in heating water costs, cost of soaps, and protects your household piping.<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Water Quality Association<\/a><\/strong> water level hardness levels are:<\/div>\n
\u221a Soft Water…………………0 to 1.0 GPG<\/div>\n
\u221a Slightly Hard……………1.1 to 3.5 GPG<\/div>\n
\u221a Moderately Hard………3.6 to 7.0 GPG<\/div>\n
\u221a Hard…………………….7.1 to 10.5 GPG<\/div>\n
\u221aExtremely Hard……..10.6 or more GPG<\/div>\n
