5 Signs Your Water Softener Might Be Broken
- You see hard water spots – hard water spots can appear in many ways, but they’re usually unattractive brown or greenish stains or rings found inside bathtubs, sinks, shower areas, toilets, and faucet taps. Hard water can also build up limescale, which can clog sinks and showerheads
- Your skin feels dry and itchy– hard water contains minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and iron, which can dry out skin and make it feel itchy after a shower or washing hands. Laundering in hard water can also leave minerals in clothes and bedding, leaving your skin feeling constantly irritated.
- Soap won’t lather – soft water contains sodium and potassium, which allow soap to mix with water. Hard water, on the other hand, has iron and magnesium, which is insoluble in water and won’t lather soap. These minerals basically “hijack” soap and turn it into scum that floats on the water.
- Changes in water pressure – A buildup of something called limescale in faucets and showerheads can cause low water pressure and even clogs in your home’s plumbing system.
- Salt in your brine tank – water softeners have something called a brine tank, where salt pellets are dissolved to keep the water “soft”. If you look in your brine tank and see undissolved salt inside, that may be an indicator your system has stopped working and you need the professionals at Hartlaub to fix the problem.
