At Culligan of Rice Lake, Wisconsin, we help customers who receive their water from a municipal supply—commonly known as city water. While city water is regulated to meet safety standards and treated with disinfectants like chlorine, certain water quality issues can still remain.
From our experience, hard water is one of the most common concerns. Hard water can cause dry skin and hair, leave spots and staining on fixtures and appliances, create a film on dishes and silverware, and make it difficult to get a comfortable level of suds when bathing. Over time, untreated hard water can also lead to scale buildup inside water heaters, reducing efficiency and increasing gas or electric heating costs.
Because water hardness varies from city to city, we strongly recommend testing your household water if you have concerns. We offer a free household water test to measure hardness levels and help determine the right solution for your home. In addition, some homeowners find the smell or taste of chlorine unpleasant, which can also be addressed with the right treatment options.
If you have any concerns about the water delivered to your home through citywide pipes, contact us to schedule a professional water evaluation. We’re here to help you enjoy better-feeling, better-tasting water every day.
