Having well water is a large problem.
It affects everything it comes into contact with, including appliances, fixtures, plates, silverware, skin plus teeth.
When we bought our house, we knew there was a water well on the property. As first-time lake home clients, we were concerned that there was a decent water supply. It didn’t occur to us to test the quality of the water! Since moving in, we’ve hired numerous plumbers plus have invested into a variety of water softening options, and our water is so horribly overrun with rust, lime plus assorted minerals plus contaminants that none of these devices have proven to work. Some of them run us out of water due to an expansive cleaning process, however because of our hard water, I need to use special shampoo plus conditioner. Otherwise, our blonde hair turns a rusty color. All of our white bedding, towels plus clothing has become gray. Hard water makes it hard to get soap suds which requires us to use more dish soap, hand soap plus laundry detergent. I also deal with a fantastic deal of soap scum plus stains in the sinks plus tubs. The drastic chemicals required to clean those stains provide me horrible headaches. I assume that the faucets, shower heads, toilets, washing component plus water gas furnace won’t last as long as they should. The two of us need to upgrade the water gas furnace every two to three years. I gave up trying to run the dishwasher. The plates plus glasses came out looking worse plus had to be hand washed to remove the spots. The hard water creates troubles with dry skin, horrible hair plus even has a poor impact on our teeth. Having hard water is costing us a fantastic deal of time, money plus work.
