How Much Is Hard Water Costing You?

How much is Hard Water Costing You?

At Pure Water Systems of Nevada we install water conditioning equipment every day to protect our clients’ homes. We see a lot of ruined appliances from hard water and iron staining, and the question we get asked most often is what it’s actually costing.

So we compiled a cost-saving chart from research and industry statistics. It shows the average homeowner saving $4,538 annually by installing a water softener.

That figure assumes an average home on hard water with a family of four. Your results will vary with household size, hardness level, and appliance mix, but these numbers are real, and they come from the categories most people never add up: water heater efficiency, appliance replacement, detergent and soap, cleaning products, skin and hair products, and bottled water.
