Pointing
the finger at a problem doesn't get the job done. You
cannot in most cases blame a municipal water supplier for
not providing the best water because, he in fact, is doing
the best job he can. It is a fact that the water you
are drinking, if municipal, is legally safe to drink because
it contains less than the Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL)
of acceptance for pollutants (unless otherwise notified).
In addition, problems associated with hard water (calcium
and magnesium) reduce the efficiency and useful life of dishwashers,
hot water heaters and steam irons. Hard water creates
heavy scaling on showers and baths, dishes and glasses and
prohibits detergents and shampoos from thoroughly rinsing
out of laundry and scalp. Combinations of hard water
and iron concentrations often stain porcelain fixtures.
They can form deposits leading to reduced water pressure and
eventually clogging water pipes completely.

Excessive
concentrations of hard water can be linked to problems associated
with kidney stones, hypertension and deposits in joints between
bones. Technology is available but the economics do
not warrant a highly pure water for washing cars, irrigating
lawns, etc. It is, however, easy and economical to treat
the water at your home. You can blame those who illegally
dump toxic material but be sure to point also to your neighbor
who cleans a paint brush at the side of his house or puts
a tissue with fingernail polish remover in the toilet.
Pointing is not the direction...your personal action must
be taken.
