- 2. San Antonio Water Softener Effects of Hard Water People who live in San Antonio have something in common with people who live in most cities and towns in the country: hard water. Hard water means the water is full of minerals, specifically magnesium and calcium. These minerals may be necessary for good health and may make water taste good, but they corrode plumbing pipes and appliances that utilize water. Hard water lays down a crust called lime scale on the inside of pipes. Eventually, this lime scale can lower the water pressure and clog the pipes completely. Sometimes, this becomes so dire that the pipes must be replaced.

- 3. San Antonio Water Softener Hard water also lays down a scum in the tub and shower stall that's hard to scrub away. It can shorten the life of appliances and make clothes dingy after being washed. It can make hair and skin feel like they haven't been washed thoroughly after coming out of a shower. Two common remedies for these problems are water softeners and reverse osmosis.

- 4. San Antonio Water Softener Water Softeners at Work Water softeners work by diverting fresh water that comes into the house into a tank filled with resin beads in brine. Next, calcium and magnesium ions are exchanged for sodium ions. The "softened" water is then allowed to flow into the fixtures and appliances in the house. Softened hot water first passes through the house's water heater. Soft water not only spares pipes, but can help remove lime scale that hasn't built up to terminal levels.

- 5. San Antonio Water Softener The size of the water softener depends on the needs of the household and how hard the water is. Our plumbers calculate that a water softener should process 50 gallons a day for every member of the household. The brine tank needs to be rinsed now and then to remove the buildup of calcium and magnesium.

- 6. San Antonio Water Softener The Process of Reverse Osmosis Reverse osmosis systems remove minerals from the water and other contaminants like nitrate, nitrite, lead and fluoride. These systems work in the opposite way from a natural system. In nature, a less concentrated solution moves through a membrane to a more concentrated solution. In reverse osmosis, artificial pressure is applied to a more concentrated solution. The water in the solution is then forced through a membrane that allows water to pass and keeps out impurities.
