- hard water or hard water is water that contains a significant amount of dissolved minerals, such as calcium and magnesium.
- Non-calcareous water or soft water contains less dissolved minerals. Or once treated, it contains only one ion, sodium. Rainwater, for example, is soft water , of course.
Water becomes hard as it works its way through the ground and into our waterways.
On the way, this water accumulates minerals such as chalk, lime, calcium and magnesium.
Uh... just a minute... Is there really a benefit to having hard water? Eh yes ! Look...
Since hard water is loaded with all these essential minerals (so important for health)...
One may wonder why one should seek to soften this water.
It's true, if hard water tastes better and is healthier, why waste it?
Despite its obvious properties, hard water is unfortunately bad for household appliances.
For example, it can damage the dishwasher or washing machine.
Not to mention that it is not easy to clean the traces of limescale left by hard water.
In short... Hard water is not only less effective...
But in addition it generates a higher energy consumption.
Why ? Due to the accumulation of limestone that is embedded everywhere.
And that is precisely the problem!
Hard water and nothing else!
Of course, it can be a bit more complicated than that.
Because not all traces in the toilet have the same cause.
But if your toilet looks like mine, I'm not taking much risk in saying that you have hard water .
- Bleach
- Cleaning gel for Domestos-type toilets
- These famous tablets that make toilet water blue
Unfortunately, none of these solutions are effective .
In fact, I've even learned that bleach can make hard water streaks worse.
And even make them permanent!
