Is Hard Water Affecting Your Loved Ones?

Oftentimes at home, it simply seems to feel like sickness is in the air. No matter how many vitamins or humidifiers you spend money on. Something just doesn’t feel right.

This is a problem that many people struggle with, and luckily water softeners can help us. You see, many of these problems are being introduced to your body through water. Something as simple as water … A striking 85% of people in the U.S. have hard water in their homes, and this very delicate problem has a very simple answer.

Drinking Hard Water Lately?

We know this information is not akin to an everyday conversation, so here are some simple signs you may be ignoring, which will point to the fact that your home, unfortunately, has hard water:

• Dishes with spots and glassware that are not quite “clear.”
• Dry skin may be creating red itchy spots that look like allergic reactions.
• Water fixtures have mineral buildup.
• Soap and scum collect in your sinks.

Think You Know How to Keep Your Water Clean?

Using individual “Pour-in” water filters is smart for drinking purposes; after all, saving more money is always better, right? Right? Here at Allore’s Plumbing Services, we know that is not true.

You see, the problem begins with the simple fact that we don’t just drink water; we shower, clean clothes, wash cars, water plants, brush our teeth, give our pets their drinks… The list can honestly go on!

Having only ONE source of healthy, clean water does not rid you of all the possible risks you are taking everywhere else. There is always a way to pay for what we do not do correctly, a penalty, you may say. And to be honest, the outcomes of just ignoring a hard water problem can and will cause bigger health issues down the road.

What Exactly Are The Health Implications?

Chemically speaking, water is known for having higher levels of calcium and magnesium. When these enter your body, they can affect many different areas since we, as a species, entirely depend upon water’s hydration.

Drinking water that has not gone through a softening process heightens the possibilities of having cardiovascular problems, reproductive difficulties, earlier Alzheimer’s, and even cancer.

Because of the change in ph that it causes in our bodies, the central nervous system might find itself affected as well. Malformations are common, especially in the offspring of people who consume hard water.

The ramifications of not maintaining a safe environment at home are simply too big not to consider. Are you willing to invest in your health, longevity, and that of your family? Our team believes you should!
