When water is referred to as ‘hard’ this simply means, that it contains more minerals than ordinary water. These are especially the minerals calcium and magnesium. The degree of hardness of the water increases, when more calcium and magnesium dissolves. Magnesium and calcium are positively charged ions. Because of their presence, other positively charged ions will dissolve less easily in hard water than in water that does not contain calcium and magnesium.
This is the cause of the fact that soap doesn’t really dissolve in hard water complicate soap and detergent dissolving in water. Water softening is a technique that serves the removal of the ions that cause the water to be hard, in most cases calcium and magnesium ions.Iron ions may also be removed during softening. The best way to soften water is to use a water softener unit and connect it directly to the water supply.
Hard water is water that is contaminated with dissolved minerals like calcium, magnesium, sulfur, iron, lead and limestone that can have a negative impact on you, your household and your pocketbook. Depending on where you live, contaminants from sewage, industrial waste and agricultural run-off can also seep into your water supply.
Your hard water impacts everything it touches, from your appliances, to your sinks and drains and even your skin and hair, leaving scale-build up, stains and scum. With a AquaPura water softener in your home you'll notice the difference immediately. The time you'll save on cleaning and the money you'll save on cleaning products. You will protect your water-using appliances from limescale and reduce the worry of dealing with repairs and replacements caused by limescale build up.
The softener contains a bed of resinbeads which hold sodium ions. As the water passesthrough the softener, the resin beads attract and hold the magnesium and calcium ions and release the sodium ions, making the water soft thus extending the useful life of water heaters, washing machines, Jacuzzi, coffee makers, bathroom fitting and household plumbing systems by as much as 30%.
