Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Arizona’s water so hard?

Arizona’s water comes from mineral-rich sources like the Colorado River and groundwater aquifers, leading to high levels of calcium and magnesium. Phoenix Valley has some of the hardest water in the U.S. This causes limescale buildup, appliance damage (Water heater, Dish washers, plumbing and faucets throughout your household). Dry skin is also a result of hard water.

What problems does hard water cause in my home?

Hard water leaves white, chalky residue on faucets, showerheads, and dishes. It reduces soap lathering, dries out skin and hair, clogs pipes, and shortens the lifespan of appliances like water heaters and dishwashers. In Arizona, where water hardness ranges from a 6-hardness count to a 26-hardness count, these issues are common and easily preventable.
