In fact, as little as 1⁄4 inch of hard water scale in your pipes can increase your energy usage by 55%. In addition to a reduction in energy efficiency, the hard water scale buildup leaves an unattractive white residue shower heads, increased spotting on tile, impossible to clean toilet rings, cloudy glassware, and poor sudsing. If you’re having trouble with any of these indicators, you are probably in need of a hard water solution.
