HARD WATER

Hard Water is the most common water concern in the United States. Water "hardness" can commonly be recognized by spots on your glasses, dishes etc. or when scum forms around the bathtub. Hardness minerals react with soap or detergents and leave residue, which makes cleaning rather frustrating. It can also damage your household water systems. The amount of calcium and magnesium bicarbonates present in the water represents Total Hardness (TH).

SOLUTION

A Water Softener will solve your hard water concerns, greatly reducing the hardness minerals found in your water. To learn more about the benefits of soft water see: Why is soft water beneficial?


POOR TASTING WATER


Does your water taste bad?
Have a salty flavor?
Or a Metallic taste?

High levels of total dissolved solids (TDS) are usually to blame.

POOR SMELLING WATER


Does your water smell bad?
Is the odor fishy or musty smelling?
Does it smell like chlorine?
How about a rotten egg odor?
A detergent odor or chemical smell?

SOLUTION

The three most common reasons for bad smelling water are: chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, or organic matter often found in surface water sources. Excessive chlorination in public or private wells can account for a chlorine smell. Corrigan Water Solutions has many water filtration options to remedy your odor problems:

SOLUTION

Iron is one of the most common elements found in nature. In fact, in groundwater supplies it is not uncommon to find some measurable amount of iron. Because iron can appear in water sources in several chemical forms, different treatments are used for iron removal.
