Lime Build-Up

At Trident Water Treatment, we understand how frustrating and costly lime build-up can be for homeowners in Central New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania. The primary cause is hard water with excess calcium and magnesium. If left unchecked, it can lead to expensive appliance repairs, decreased water quality, and challenging cleaning issues. Let’s dive into the problem and how Trident Water Treatment can provide solutions.

What Causes Lime Build-Up?

Lime build-up occurs when hard water, rich in calcium and magnesium, flows through your home’s plumbing and fixtures. These minerals leave behind a white, chalky residue on surfaces. The higher the mineral content, the more severe the lime build-up becomes.

How Lime Build-Up Impacts Your Home

Lime deposits can clog pipes and coat heating elements in appliances like water heaters, washing machines, and dishwashers. This reduces their efficiency, increases energy bills, and shortens their lifespan.
Hard-to-remove white streaks and spots on glassware, shower doors, and faucets make cleaning more time-consuming and leave surfaces looking dull.

Mineral deposits in pipes can restrict water flow, increase water pressure, and lead to leaks or costly plumbing damage.

Hard water can leave soap residue behind, causing dry skin and dull, lifeless hair.
