If you have been thinking about getting a water softener for your home’s water supply, Five Star Plumbing is going to list the benefits of this water system below. There are several to consider, which is why so many homes in San Antonio opt for water softening systems.
Better Skin and Hair
One primary benefit of a water softening system is you’ll have healthier skin and hair. Mineral deposits in hard water dry out your skin and hair and leave both feeling sticky. Soft water helps to lock the moisture in your skin and hair and leaves both feeling soft and silky.
Cleaner Sinks/Tubs/Showers
Mineral deposits also build up on the surfaces of your tubs, showers, and sinks. This makes cleaning these things nearly impossible, especially if the scale is building up quickly. Soft water does not leave mineral deposits on these surfaces so they’re easy to keep clean.
Softer/Cleaner Clothes
With no mineral deposits, you will notice a significant difference in your laundry. The clothes will be cleaner and softer than if you were washing them with hard water. Soft water can extend the life of your clothing, as well, because it’s gentler on it.
Better Tasting Water
You’re starting to see a pattern here, aren’t you? Soft water also tastes better because you aren’t tasting the mineral deposits found in hard water. If you install a soft water system and water purification system, you won’t need to worry about drinking tap water.
Better for the Plumbing
As with your bathroom fixtures, soft water is also better for your household plumbing. When the soft water runs through the pipes, it does not cause mineral build-up on the pipe walls. This helps prevent plumbing clogs and pipe corrosion.
Better for the Appliances
The same is true for your water-using appliances such as your dishwasher and washing machine. Soft water treats them better so they last longer. Mineral deposits inside these appliances can shorten their life spans significantly.
Long-Term Money Savings
All of this adds up to long-term savings. The longer your household plumbing lasts without problems, the less you need to worry about plumbing bills. The longer your appliances last without problems, the less you need to worry about buying new ones.
