Hard water and how it effects your laundry

Did you know that type of water you have in your home can heavily affect how well your laundry is washed? For instance, hard water, the one containing minerals such as magnesium, calcium, iron and manganese, can be a main reason why you have cleaning problems with your clothes.

 

How does it manifest

 

Fact is detergent just don’t work that god in hard water because all minerals it contains. Those minerals prevents mixing water and detergent so that no suitable laundry cleaning solution is created. Because of that soap scum is left behind to stick on your laundry.

Even more, not only you don’t get clean clothes after washing but dirt will stick to it even easier when you wear it.

Also hard water can leave yellow or bronze like stains on your laundry, make it stiff and cause irritation on your skin. Especially if you have sensitive skin or problems with eczema.

If you use more detergent than normal and hotter water you will soften the water but that will not resolve the problem. Reason is – the more detergent you use, the more soap scum and residue will be created and all negative effects will persist. Plus, more detergent leads to spending more money and causing more water pollution.
