High amounts of dissolved calcium and magnesium can be found in tap water in certain areas, causing water hardness. While the high mineral content provides your body with essential minerals, daily exposure to a high level of it may affect your health.

How to identify if your water is hard?

• Bad tasting water
  A disproportionate amount of minerals in your water adds an unpleasant taste to it.
• Damaged skin and hair
  An excess of minerals in hard water can change the pH balance of your skin, weakening its protective barrier and making it feel as dry as a dessert while causing your hair to feel slimy and brittle right after washing it.
• Stains on glassware
  The white stains on your dishes and glasses are caused by the minerals in the hard water, often making you feel like you need to rewash your dishes.
• Scale buildup in water fixtures
  Hard water can interfere with the action of soaps and detergents, resulting in deposits inside not only your plumbing but also your appliances like your coffeemaker
