Water Quality
Understand Hard Water In Your Property
Integra provides water-quality assessment and practical engineering guidance for residential property owners, facility operators, and organizations concerned about hard-water conditions and their effects.
Every problem hard water causes
— from stubborn limescale to reduced water flow — can actually be traced back to certain kinds of minerals.
A Reassuring Distinction
Hard Water Is Not Generally Dangerous
Most water hardness comes from calcium and magnesium, minerals found widely in nature. Calcium is essential to all living things, occurring in leaves, teeth, bones, shells and Earth’s crust; magnesium is essential to plant and animal life, mostly in bones. Already present in your body, these minerals can benefit parts of health, so hard water is not generally considered dangerous.
Talk Through Your Water Concerns
However, that doesn’t mean water hardness is a good thing.
The truth is that most calcium comes from your diet, particularly milk products; both calcium and magnesium can also be found in green leafy vegetables, nuts and seeds.
That means you don’t need to rely on your drinking water as a main source of these minerals — especially because they can cause an unpleasant taste.
Unfortunately, that’s not all you can expect from high levels of hardness minerals.
