The benefits of soft water

You’ll be pleased to know there are many benefits to softening the water in your home. Hard water is harsh and aggressive, ruining everything it comes into contact with, including you!

Hear from the plumbing experts:

Join Ash, a professional plumber, as he breaks down the amazing benefits of installing a Monarch Water Softener. Learn from an expert who’s seen firsthand how a water softener can transform homes, save money, and make life easier.

1. Protect & prolong appliances

Soft water will extend the life expectancy of all your hot water  appliances – your dishwasher, washing machine and even your kettle and coffee machine. And you won’t have the hassle or expense of descaling tablets anymore.

Hard water furs up pipes and can cause permanent, irreversible damage to your boiler. Just 1.6mm of scale = 12% efficiency loss (British Water). Soft water eliminates this worry and makes your heating system more efficient. That’s better for your pocket and the planet.

3. Sparkling taps

Soft water keeps kitchen and bathroom taps looking shinier and showroom new for longer. No unsightly limescale crusting up the spout and dripping onto handles.

4. Better showers

No more dancing around under a few drops in the shower. With soft water, showerheads won’t get clogged up with scale, allowing water to flow through faster for a much better showering experience.

We’ve all seen the effect of limescale on shower glass. That powdery white film that just never seems to budge. Soft water makes it so much easier to clean and keep clean, with minimal deposit build-up.

6. Skin saviour

Soft water can help to alleviate skin conditions such as eczema. It’s kinder to skin generally, especially dry or sensitive skin, leaving it feeling softer and smoother without the irritation that can be caused by hard water. It has the same effect on your laundry too!

7. Hair hero

The benefits of soft water on our hair have been well documented. The minerals in harsh hard water can aggravate scalp conditions and leave hair looking flat and lack lustre, whilst soft water has the opposite effect. Experience shiny, healthier looking hair.

8. A greener choice

There are huge positive knock-on effects of water softening, too huge to calculate. Imagine how many dishwashers end up on the scrap heap too soon, how many boilers need replacing and how inefficient appliances are when struggling with hard water.

9. 50% less detergent

Expect to half your use of shampoo, shower gel, washing up liquid, clothes washing detergent and cleaning products. With soft water, they lather up beautifully when only using the smallest amount.

10. £ savings

Soft water can help your home to become more efficient by up to 24%, saving on energy bills, appliance repairs and replacements. And British Water estimate a saving of around £200 a year on cleaning products for a household of 4 people.
