A homeowner’s guide to hard water

Scale and spots can be signs of hard water. Understanding what is in your water is a useful first step before choosing treatment.

Illustrative plumbing service concept

What does hard water mean?

Water hardness refers to dissolved minerals, commonly calcium and magnesium. Hardness can vary by source and over time, so a local assumption does not replace testing the water in your home.

What are you noticing?

Tell us about scale on fixtures, spots after washing, or other changes in the water. Taste and odor can have causes other than hardness and may call for a different treatment approach.

Softening and filtration

A water softener and a filter serve different purposes. Choosing equipment begins with identifying the concern, understanding the water and checking the system’s specifications.
