Laundry

Water hardness poses some obstacles to cleaning. Hardness causing minerals react with soap to form an insoluble curd that can show up on fabrics as a white powder, make fabrics feel stiff and attach to the inside of washing machines. The forming of the curd uses up some of the soap and reduces its cleaning ability.

The life of clothing and textiles was prolonged up to 15% when washed in conditioned water. - Based on a study by the School of Civil engineering and the School of Consumer and Family Sciences, Purdue University.
