Hard Water Bad Tasting Water Contaminants

Common water problems in Galena

Bad tasting water problems

Before your water enters your home, it can pick up bad tasting contaminants - from private wells, miles of underground utility pipes or even the local municipal water source itself. You may not be able to see these contaminants, but when you taste the water, something is obviously not right.

Common water taste problems include:

  • Pin-hole leaks in your plumbing
  • Blue-green stains on your fixtures, sinks and tubs
  • Blueish stains or residue on laundry
  • Light colored hair tinted blue-green
  • Metallic taste

Contaminant problems

Some of the most dangerous water contaminants have no taste, smell or appearance. Contaminants can enter your water via private wells, miles of underground utility pipes or even the local municipal water source.

Common contaminants include:

  • Arsenic
  • Turbidity
  • Lead
  • Nitrates
  • Radon

Hard water problems

Hard water results from high levels of calcium and magnesium in water. Hard water minerals stick to everything water touches, and do more than leave an unsightly residue - they can actually harm your home and cost you money.

Common hard water problems include:

  • Stains and buildup on sinks, shower heads, and dishes
  • Dry skin and hair
  • Costly long-term damage to water appliances
