Hard Water

Hardness in water is due to the presence of calcium and magnesium compounds, which exist to some degree in all natural water supplies. Most supplies range from 3 grains per gallon (gpg) to 50 gpg of hardness. There are extreme cases where hardness may reach 100 gpg. The hardness of well water is usually higher than that of surface supplies. Shallow wells (025 ft.) can vary from season to season, but deep wells are usually quite constant. Soft water is defined as water not exceeding one grain per gallon.

Soft 0 to 0.5 gpg
Slightly Hard 0.5 to 3.5 gpg
Moderately Hard 3.5 to 7.0 gpg
Hard 7.0 to 10.5 gpg
Very Hard over 10.5 gpg

Hard water is responsible for the formation of lime scaling in pipes, water heaters, boilers, air conditioning systems, etc., causing inefficiency and sometimes permanent damage. One-sixteenth of an inch of scale may lower efficiency of a water heater as much as 15%. Scale acts as an insulating material, thus lowering heat transmission and often causing premature heater failure due to overheating of the metal. Hardness in water increases soap consumption, wasting from 50% to 90% of the soap used, depending on the amount of hardness. It also causes the formation of soap curd, which adheres to cloth fibers, hair, glassware and dishes. Soap curd causes poor results in laundering and may hold pathogenic bacteria.
When hardness appears as the only substantial water problem, the installation of a water softener is recommended.
I Have a Water Conditioner, Now my Water Feels "Slimy" Why?

When the hardness minerals ae removed, soap no longer forms a soap curd, or "bathtub ring" on your skin, plugging your pores, clinging to every strand of hair. You are now truly clean. That slick, slimy feeling you feel is your natural body oils-- without the soap scum.

The old saying that you get "squeaky clean" is a myth; that feeling was caused by the soap scum on your skin. By the way, that soap scum provided an excellent place for bacteria to hide and grow, causing numerous minor skin ailments.
