Scaling, Staining & Spotting

For many homeowners, the water flowing through the pipes and faucets is not as clean and pure as it could be. If you see scaling, staining, and spotting in your coffee maker, dishwasher, sinks, toilets, washing machine, and other appliances, you probably have a hard water problem. It is a problem that affects most households due to increased levels of calcium, magnesium, and other minerals in the water. The color of the stains generally ranges from a chalky white to a reddish-brown, depending on the mineral content.

The hard water scaling, staining, and spots are not harmful to your health, but it is unsightly. It also requires more frequent cleaning and maintenance, and it can degrade the performance of appliances that use water. Our water analysis will detect the severity of your hard water problem.

Scaling

Limescale deposits are a common problem found in homes with hard water. It is a white powdery or chalky substance that is primarily calcium carbonate. Limescale deposits buildup more frequently in appliances that use hot water like the coffee maker, dishwasher, washing machine, and the water heater. The buildup can eventually clog and damage water pipes, plumbing fixtures, and appliances requiring more frequent cleaning, repairs, and replacement.

Staining

Hard water also causes those ugly reddish-brown stains in your bathtub, shower walls and doors, toilets, and sinks. The high magnesium content in the water often makes the stain difficult to remove. Until the hard water problem is resolved, the stains will keep coming back.

Spotting

The calcium carbonate in limescale deposits is more prevalent in hot water. When it dries, you will notice that annoying white spotty coating on your glasses, dishware, silverware, and cookware when they dry.
