If you live in Murrieta, Temecula, or anywhere in Southwest Riverside County, you’re dealing with some of the hardest water in Southern California. A professional water softener installation from Davis Plumbing and Heating Inc. can protect your pipes, appliances, and water heater from costly mineral damage.
How Hard Is Riverside County Water?
Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon (GPG). Water over 7 GPG is considered hard, and water over 10 GPG is very hard. Murrieta and Temecula regularly test at 15-25 GPG — among the hardest in the region. This mineral-laden water leaves scale on everything it touches.
What Hard Water Does to Your Home
- Pipes — scale buildup gradually narrows pipe diameter, reducing flow and increasing pressure
- Water heater — sediment accumulates in the tank, reducing efficiency and shortening lifespan
- Dishwasher & washing machine — mineral deposits reduce appliance efficiency and longevity
- Shower heads & faucets — white crusty buildup clogs and damages fixtures
- Skin & hair — hard water strips moisture, leaving skin dry and hair brittle
Benefits of a Water Softener
- Extends the life of your water heater, pipes, and appliances
- Reduces soap and detergent usage (soft water lathers better)
- Softer skin and hair
- Cleaner dishes and laundry
- Lower energy bills from a more efficient water heater
