Calcium Filtration

Calcium in your water is hard water, leading to scale buildup, dry or itchy skin, cloudy water, and reduced appliance efficiency. Testing and treating your water for calcium with whole-house calcium filtration systems can reduce calcium levels and improve the overall quality of your water.
At Canney’s Water Conditioning, Inc., we provide water treatment systems for calcium to help clean and purify your water. Keep reading to learn more about calcium and how to protect your water supply.

Where Does Calcium Come From?

Calcium enters water supply systems by moving through soil and rocks, primarily limestone, chalk, and gypsum. As groundwater travels, it dissolves and absorbs these minerals. Along with magnesium, calcium is one of the leading sources or causes of hard water. While not typically harmful to drink, consistently high levels of calcium in your water supply can create long-term damage to your plumbing system and water-reliant appliances such as laundry machines, water heaters, showers, and dishwashers.

How to Tell if You Have Calcium in Your Water

The presence of hard water can indicate calcium in your water system. Signs of hard water include:

• Chalky residue on faucets
• Soap scum in sinks
• Spotty glassware and dishes
• Stiff or faded laundry
• Dry or itchy skin
• Reduced water pressure

If you suspect you have hard water, professional water testing can accurately determine hardness levels and identify a solution.

Removing Calcium with a Whole House Removal System

Whole house filtration systems are highly effective at preventing calcium buildup. These filters are installed along water supply lines and at entry points, filtering the calcium from your water supply and protecting your plumbing systems.
