Hard Water in Los Angeles
I was born and raised in Malaysia and I have never known anything about hard water until I came to Los Angeles. My skin is not comfortable with the hard water and everytime after shower, I have to put on body lotion. It is a hassle. I really prefer the soft water feeling on the skin and I feel it is much cleaner when we wash with soft water.
So next time when we got a new home, we will definitely install a water softener. We can’t install it now at our current home because it is a lot of work as this is an old home and water pipe system wasn’t prepared for a water softener unit. So we would need to do a lot of re-piping work to install a water softener.
Since I am not an expert in this area, I may sort the help from the professionals at Expert Water Solutions. I didn’t know that I can request from the municipal water company for a copy of the water report until I read their website. According to their water hardness map, Los Angeles has very hard water between 10-14 gpg.
Let me briefly introduce to you Expert Water Solutions. This company specializes in all area of water treatment including well water treatment, water filtration and water conditioning from residential to commercial. Their line of products includes water softeners, all type of filters (iron, carbon and others), chemical feed pumps, drinking water filter and more. They offer free water test and all you need to do is to give them a call at their toll free number. I’ll be sure to have my water tested before purchasing a water softener so I know which type of water softener is best to suit our city water.
