Why Drinking Water Matters

Water is part of your daily life. You use it to cook, clean, make coffee, and—most importantly—stay hydrated. But not all water is the same. Tap water can carry unwanted things like:

Chlorine

Chlorine, an additive in drinking water, can cause your water to have an odd taste and smell.

Lead or Copper

Lead piping can deteriorate over time, causing water to contain contaminants from both inside and outside.

Hard Water Minerals

Hard water minerals, such as calcium and magnesium, can cause scale to build up on surfaces and inside appliances, resulting in damage.

Common Water Problems In Chardon, OH

These water problems are common to Chardon, OH water, but they may not affect your home or business.

Water in Chardon, OH comes from the municipal water supplier, The Chardon City Public Water System and private well water systems. Even if you have city water, your water can still have some level of contaminants. It can also still cause water problems in your home. To learn more about Chardon's city water you can review the Consumer Confidence Report from the Chardon City Public Water System. In Chardon, we most commonly see water problems like hard water, high levels of chlorine and unwanted stains caused by water. If you have these or other water problems, schedule a water test to learn how you can treat your water problems.

Hard Water

When water travels through the ground, it picks up minerals like calcium and magnesium. These minerals dissolve in water and make water hard. Hard water can cause problems for both you and your home. If your water is even slightly hard your water-using appliances can be damaged by scale buildup shortening their lifespan. Hard water also stains sinks and showers and leaves hard water spots on dishes and silverware. It can also affect you. Your skin can dry out when you bathe and wash your hands. Your hair can become dull and brittle, causing it to tangle and become more difficult to manage.

Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon. If your water measures at one grain per gallon of hardness, it is hard. Water 10 grains per gallon or more is considered very hard.

Water Hardness Table

Grains per Gallon (gpg)	Milligrams per Liter (mg/L)	Water Classification (Water Quality Association)
<1.0	<17.1	Soft
1 - 3.5	17.1 - 60	Slightly Hard
3.5 - 7.0	60 - 120	Moderately Hard
7.0-10.5	120 - 180	Hard
10.5 +	180 +	Very Hard

If you suspect that your water is hard, the best solution for you and other home's in Chardon may be a Kinetico Premier Series Water Softener. A water softener replaces the hardness ions in hard water with softer sodium ions. You will see and feel the benefits of soft water for you and your home.

Chlorine

According to the Water Quality Report provided by the City of Chardon, chlorine is added to your water to disinfect it and make it safe for consumption. Many well water users also use chlorine to treat their water. Although chlorine is essential at the treatment plant and in the water distribution system, it is not needed once the water reaches your home.

Chlorine plays an important role in disinfecting water, but its benefits come at a price. Chlorine tastes and smells bad. It dries skin and hair, fades clothes (bleach is made of chlorine) and can dry out the rubber seals in appliances, shortening the live of your expensive appliances.

To get rid of the chlorine taste and smell in your drinking water we suggest installing our K5 Drinking Water Station. With the multi-stage filtration and modular filter set-up, the K5 is highly effective at removing chlorine as well as reducing contaminants in your water.

We also offer whole-home chlorine removal like our Dechlorinator to reduce the impact of chlorine throughout the home.

Staining

Another common water problem we see in Chardon is stains caused by water. Stains can be caused by several water problems, but in Chardon we most often see hard water stains and scale buildup, or reddish-orange and brown stains caused by iron and manganese.

Typically you cannot see these water problems until the water evaporates and leaves a stain on your sinks, showers clothes or in some cases your hair. If you notice stains on your kitchen and bathroom fixtures, showers and tubs or when your clothes come out of the washing machine you should schedule a water test with our Chardon area water specialist. They can test your water and tell you exactly what is causing the stains.

Kinetico has several water treatment solutions to help with stains caused by water. If there is iron in your water causing reddish-orange stains we have iron filters to get rid of them. If your stains are scale buildup and hard water spots a Premier Series Water Softener is the solution to your water problems.
