Carrollwood water: common questions
Can hard water damage the older plumbing in my Carrollwood home?
It can. Scale gradually narrows pipes and builds up in water heaters and fixtures, which is more noticeable in Carrollwood's older homes. Softening the water slows that buildup and protects what you have.
Will a water softener help with scale on my Carrollwood fixtures?
Yes. A softener removes the calcium and magnesium that cause scale, so you'll see fewer spots and less crust on faucets, shower glass, and fixtures going forward.
