The effects of hardness can be costly because of
damage to water heaters and plumbing, and the
extensive use of soap, detergent, and shampoo.
In addition, hard water causes significant
aesthetic and cleaning problems.
Hardness may have some specific ties to health
problems such as kidney and gall bladder stones;
in fact, a study by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention draws some direct
parallels to hardness levels and kidney stones.
Hardness can be easily solved by a water
softener. Click
