Reducing the Acidity of Your Water

As a homeowner you have a lot to worry about. You need smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms, sump pumps, back-ups and alarms for when they stop working. You should also concern yourself with the acidity level of your water. If you don’t live in an area where water is treated and filtered to be potable, you’ll need a system in place to create safe drinking water for you and your family. This is where an acid neutralizer system comes into play.

Acidic water can wreak havoc on your household. It can damage your plumbing, affecting everything from pipes to your valves and faucets. You might notice copper oxide on your rub or shower, even after a thorough cleaning. This is a big indicator that you may have acidic water.

Instead of spending your time and energy constantly replacing or fixing the pipes and plumbing around your home, you should consider having a professional install an acid neutralizer system. This will keep your water within the ideal ranges (a pH level of 7 is neutral). It prevents the green ring around your tub that just keeps re-appearing, and a neutralizer can ensure that your family is drinking only the best and purest water day-in and day out.

A professional plumber will know the best way to install a system and what type of system will work best with your water supply and existing plumbing. Whether you live in a town without a water system or live in a rural area and rely on a well for your water, you should make it a priority to keep your plumbing running affectively and safely.

No matter what your exact needs are, a professional plumber can explain all of your options and get the system installed quickly and safely. So the next time you’re scrubbing your tub or fixing another damaged pipe, reach for the phone and give the professionals a call.
