Does Another Bout of Drought Spell Doom for Water Softeners?
If you live in San Jose, you know you are living with very hard water that doesn’t taste great. The water procured for use in the city of San Jose, by way of the San Jose Water Company (SJWC), is known to be exceptionally hard. The SJWC’s 2014 water quality report found that every single water source used by SJWC contained high levels of dissolved minerals. While there’s no personal health risk to using or consuming hard water (other than drying out your hair and your skin) hard water can wreak havoc on your pipes, hot water heater, and other household appliances. The hardness is caused by calcium carbonate in the water and is some of the most difficult water in the Bay Area.
You may have also noticed a strange taste in your tap water. This is likely caused by chlorine that the city uses to eliminate harmful bacteria from the water supply. Like hard water, chlorine can also dry out your skin and hair over time. The taste out of the faucet is affected using chlorine, which municipalities use to disinfect the water.
