How Sacramento’s Hard Water Affects Your Plumbing

Many residents of Sacramento are experiencing hard water, laden with calcium and magnesium. Here at Flowrite Plumbing, we have helped a lot of homeowners safeguard their pipes as well as water systems against damage caused by hard water.

What Hard Water Does to Your Plumbing

  • Builds Up Mineral Deposits: Hard water builds up limescale deposits on faucets, showerheads, and inside pipes. Over time, this can narrow water flow, reduce efficiency, and cause clogs.
  • Reduces Appliance Lifespan: Water heaters, dishwashers, and washing machines work harder in hard water conditions which can shorten their life and increase energy bills.
  • Causes Pipe Corrosion: Mineral buildup inside your plumbing can lead to corrosion. Leaks-and even full pipe replacements if left unchecked.

What Sacramento Homeowners Can Do

  • Install a water softener to prevent mineral build-up.
  • Have a plumber regularly maintain and flush your pipes. Visit our Water Heater Services page for more tips on protecting appliances.
  • Call a licensed plumber the moment you notice reduced water flow, strange noises in pipes, or leaks.
