Bathing with soap in hard water leaves a film of sticky soap curd on the skin. The film may prevent removal of soil and bacteria. Soap curd interferes with the return of skin to its normal, slightly acid condition, and may lead to irritation. Soap curd on hair may make it dull, lifeless and difficult to manage.

The greater Phoenix is some the hardest water in the country.  Softening the water makes life much easier and save’s money too.  Soft water saves as much as 75% on soap cost around the home.

Having a residential water softener gives piece of mind your appliances, fixtures, and water heater will not scale up and wear out and have pre-mature failure.  With the Ecowater Refiner you get piece of mind with a lifetime warranty that the softener and chlorine removeal will last a lifetime.

We call water “hard” if it contains a lot of calcium or magnesium dissolved in it. Hard water causes two problems:

• It can cause “scale” to form on the inside of pipes, water heaters, tea kettles and so on. The calcium and magnesium precipitate out of the water and stick to things. The scale doesn’t conduct heat well and it also reduces the flow through pipes. Eventually, pipes can become completely clogged.
• It reacts with soap to form a sticky scum, and also reduces the soap’s ability to lather. Since most of us like to wash with soap, hard water makes a bath or shower less productive
