Good water quality leads to a longer life for your appliances and fixtures, sparing you the cost of constant replacement. In a study commissioned by the Water Quality Research Foundation (WQRF) in 2009 and conducted by the Battelle Memorial Institute, water softeners were found to preserve the efficiency of water heaters and major appliances. Throughout the study, dishwashers, and clothes washers were operated for 30 days and 240 full wash cycles on soft and hard water sources. The washers using softened water were virtually free of any scale build up. The washers using hard water, however, required removal of scale and deposit build up. Additionally, less detergent was required for the clothes washed with softened water. The same study found that hard water led to as much as a 48% efficiency loss in water heaters over a 15-year lifetime.
Meanwhile, water heaters operated on softened water maintained the original factory efficiency rating over the same period of time.
