Many Benefits of RO Installation

Did you know that the city of Hays Kansas experiences hard water due to naturally occurring minerals like calcium and magnesium? While the city of Hays has a water treatment plant softens water, it still averages around 7 grains per gallon (gpg) which is considered moderately hard. What does this mean for your home??? Well, this level can lead to issues like scale buildup in pipes and appliances, and affect the effectiveness of soaps and detergents.

While the city does provide some softening, many residents choose to further treat their water with whole-house filtration and reverse osmosis systems to address the hardness and other potential contaminants. Water that is not treated could contain lead, heavy metals, chlorine, fluoride, and many other contaminants. There are many contaminants that have "no legal limit" that RO can help filter out according to EWG's Heath guidelines and database.

The above are just a few benefits that RO can have for your household. Many customers report having less build up in toilets (rings) and also softer hair, and less build up in household appliances which could prolong appliance life. RO is definitely a plumbing add-on to highly consider for these many reasons.
