If you are thinking about getting a water softener installed in your home, there are several benefits as you may know. One of them is your skin. You may not realize the many ways that soft water benefits your hair as well as your skin. If you have gotten out of the shower and felt dry and scaly, you may have a hard water problem. Orsack Plumbing Company is here to talk about the effects that hard water and soft water have on your skin.
Hard Water Skin Problems; Bad Complexion, Acne, Dermatitis, Itchy Skin & More
For those that have hard water, you may notice the soap scum that builds up quickly in your bath and shower. Not only does this soap scum accumulate on your shower, but it does on your skin as well. This soap scum clogs your pores and worsens any skin conditions you may already have such as acne. Many people with hard water also notice their skin is easily irritated and itchy because the minerals found in hard water don’t allow your body to produce the natural oils it would without the minerals being present.
Benefits of Soft Water for Your Skin
The biggest reason that soft water is better for your skin, is the fact that your skin will be cleaner than when you have hard water. The soap is able to form a sudsy lather, and is easier to rinse away. Hard water doesn’t allow the soap to lather easily and that is what leaves behind soap scum. You will be blown away at how much better your skin will feel without all the soap scum clogging your pores.
Soft Water Help with Skin Conditions
If you or your children suffer from skin conditions like acne or eczema, soft water may be the answer for you. Obviously, having a water softener installed in your home isn’t going to be a cure-all, but studies have shown that those with water softeners have less problems with dry skin issues.
Benefits of Water Softeners on Health & Homes
Not only will you notice that you have softer, cleaner skin and hair, but there are several ways the rest of your home will benefit from soft water. Your appliances will last much longer without all the calcium buildup that ends up damaging them and causing unnecessary repairs. You will also notice that your laundry comes out brighter and whiter without all the mineral buildup that effect the fibers your clothes are made of. Your appliances will no longer need to work harder than necessary to operate efficiently, and in turn, will save you money.
