You Know You Have Hard Water When...

Hard water is something that those of us in South and Central Texas deal with on a daily basis...at work, at home, at the mall. Central Texas has some of the highest levels of hard water in the United States. This is due to the large amount of limestone that makes up the Central Texas region. Still wondering whether or not you need a water softener.

Well, you might have hard water if...

• You have to wear a helmet or hard hat in the shower to protect your hair from the damaging effects of the hard water
• Your skin feels like a mummy's after getting out of the shower or bath
• You have to constantly remind guests that "Yes, the dishes ARE clean" because of the film that is left behind after washing them.
• Your brand new sweater only lasted 3 washes
• After washing your hands, it feels as if you have been in the Sahara desert without water, and all you want is lotion...STAT
• Your shower's pressure is the equivalent of a dripping faucet, and that is on a good day!
• You stop to think if you are really THAT thirsty when it comes to pouring a glass of water because your water tastes funny

The above items may sound comedic, but many of them are true, and many people can relate. However, you don't have to suffer from any of these effects or wonder about hard water anymore! There are a variety of water softeners and water filtration systems available so you don't have to walk around, hesitating to take a shower. Also, spending tons of money on lotions and hair repair products will be almost obsolete.

After living with soft water, especially in South and Central Texas, you will never want to go back! Wondering what options you have? You can always contact BioTech so one of our experienced and trained technicians can give you an estimate.

In the mean time, don't forget your hard hat!
