What is hard water?

Hard water is water that contains high levels of dissolved minerals, including chlorine, calcium, and magnesium. These minerals are naturally present in the environment and groundwater used by your municipal water supply. The sediment is carried as water travels through soil and rocks.

Ultimately, the concentration level of sediment will determine the hardness of water, with higher levels resulting in harder water that requires a water treatment or the installation of a water filtration system.
