The Hard Truth About Hard Water: A Homeowner’s Guide to Spotting and Solving the Issue

Hard water is a common woe for homeowners in Perth and Western Australia. It might not be always visible, but its effects are tangible and they can affect everything in your home – from your appliances to the feel of your clothes, to the health of your skin and scalp.

If your home is located in a hard water area, keep reading. By the end of this blog post you will have a clearer idea about how to identify the signs of hard water as well as practical solutions to address the issue.

Identifying the Problem: Signs of Hard Water At Home

These are some of the common issues you will find in a home with hard water:

  • Soap Scum Build-up: One of the tell-tale signs of hard water is the stubborn soap scum that accumulates in your bathroom. If you find yourself scrubbing away at a filmy residue after every shower, your water might be on the harder side.
  • Spotty Dishes and Glassware: Have you noticed unsightly spots on your dishes and glassware after they’ve been through the dishwasher? Hard water leaves mineral deposits that can be particularly bothersome in areas with high mineral content.
  • Dry, Itchy Skin: Hard water can strip away the natural oils from your skin, leaving it dry and itchy. If your skin feels tight after a shower, your water hardness might be to blame.
  • Limescale Build-up: Check your faucets and showerheads for limescale deposits. These chalky white build-ups are a clear indicator of hard water. Over time, limescale can also accumulate in your pipes and appliances, affecting their efficiency.
