Hard water can contain magnesium, calcium and other metal cations, which can cause lime scale and soap scum. This is because in hard water, soap can be wasted mopping up calcium ions, it also binds to certain fats leaving insoluble layers on surfaces. The long term effects can be plumbing issues, machine break down, damage and staining. Water softening salt is used to remove and break down the elements that cause the above issues. Results of softening water can extend lifetime of plumbing and machinery, it also means less soap is needed for cleaning, reducing long term costs.
