With an ever-growing population, property development in the UK continues to be on the rise. With the pandemic meaning that more time than ever has been spent at home, buyers are definitely looking for a more high end finish these days. Why spend time and money on quality fixtures and fittings however when the hard water servicing the property can ruin them in a flash? This is where water softener installation comes in.

What does hard water do to a property?

Hard water is water which contains a high amount of dissolved minerals, primarily calcium and magnesium. The hardness of the water supply very much comes down to the area in which the property is. It is dependent on the types of rocks that the naturally soft rainwater passes through when it hits the ground. The rainwater is filtered by stones and mineral deposits. If it passes through soft rocks such as limestone and chalk, it will collect calcium and magnesium minerals thus becoming hard. The minerals in hard water will cause limescale, water marks and soap scum to build up on surfaces, all of which can take a lot of scrubbing and harsh abrasive cleaning agents to remove. Even after cleaning, the surfaces can be left dull and without their natural shine. Not just the surfaces that you can see, anywhere that hard water will come into contact with heat you can get limescale buildup. Not only will this mean that appliances will not perform at their best, their lifespan will be reduced and energy bills will also be higher. Therefore using softened water will extend the life of dishwashers, boilers, central heating systems and pipework.

Why installing a water softener is the way forward

Using a process called ion exchange, a water softener will remove all magnesium and calcium ions from the water supply as it enters the property. This means that you will not get the limescale build up, water marks and the adverse effect on appliances that the hard water will have caused. Your client will be confident that their brand new fixtures, fittings and appliances will remain looking and working at their very best. Another great selling point is that water softeners have been proven to help ease irritation to dry skin conditions like eczema. You client will also spend less money on cleaning products too. The softened water is far less damaging to surfaces and sink areas, meaning it is much easier and much cheaper to keep your kitchen or bathroom clean.
