Do you know if you have hard or soft water? Did you know testing water hardness with us is simple and free?
Hard water is caused by high level of minerals such as calcium and magnesium in your water. The higher the levels, the harder the water will be and the more problems it will cause such as low water pressure, white deposits on your shower head and faucet, clogged coffee pot or ice maker and more!
Our simple and free water hardness test strip will give you immediate results. According to the standards established by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (S-339) and the Water Quality Association (WQA), hard water levels are defined by the following:
| Degree of Hardness | Grains per Gallon (gpg) | ppm (or mg/L) |
|---|---|---|
| Soft | <1.0 | <17.0 |
| Slightly Hard | 1.0-3.5 | 17.1-60 |
| Moderately Hard | 3.5-7.0 | 60-120 |
| Hard | 7.0-10.5 | 120-180 |
| Very Hard | >10.5 | >180 |
