Warrenville, IL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/11/2022 --Using a water softening system in the home has been proven to help improve health and reduce the risk of health hazards. The essential purpose of a water softener is to help prevent scale build-up on household pipes and water heaters, which can cause damage to both units and clog them over time.

In addition to protecting the water quality by removing contaminants, it improves the quality of residential water by eliminating the limescale and other impurities.

The primary purpose of a water softener system in Elgin and Barrington, Illinois is to soften water. Soft water is healthier for plants and less corrosive for fixtures and pipes. Unlike hard water, which tends to have a metallic taste, it tastes much good. Chicago Water Pros is a leading supplier of quality water softeners in the Greater Chicago area. Successful installation of these systems reduces the strain on the residential water heater, saving resources and money. Having the system might save homeowners up to 29% every year.

Hard water is a common occurrence in most homes. It originates from natural mineral deposits that form when rainwater passes through rocks and soil. The result is slightly alkaline water with a high concentration of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium. The minerals in hard water can leave deposits on surfaces and can also damage appliances and pipes. However, the effects of hard water vary depending on the type and amount of the minerals present. Some of the most common minerals found in hard water are calcium, iron, and magnesium.

The contemporary water softeners remove the hardness or mineral content from the water. They work by passing hard water through a series of chambers where the salt is extracted, leaving the soft water behind. Most water softeners use electric current or salt as the main component of the softening process.
