Q: How do I know if I have hard water in my hair?

• <div><p>If your &lsquo;do isn&rsquo;t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can&rsquo;t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that&rsquo;s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.</p></div>

Q: What are some benefits of a water softener?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/water-softener-benefits.htm">Water softeners have many benefits</a>. The most important one is converting previously hard water&mdash;water with too many minerals&mdash;to more usable, easier water. When we say easier water, we mean water that&rsquo;s easier to digest, less harsh on skin and clothes, and builds up less in the water system. Softer water may lead to lower energy costs and will extend the lifespan of all appliances that use water. </p></div>

Q: Is hard water bad for you?

• <div><p>Hard water isn&rsquo;t necessarily bad for you. In some ways, it&rsquo;s good for you. If you&rsquo;re deficient in magnesium or calcium, hard water can give you a mineral boost that you wouldn&rsquo;t get with soft water. However, this is where the benefits of hard water pretty much stop. Hard water can cause many minor inconveniences and lead to costly, premature replacements of your water-using appliances.</p></div>

Q: How do I get utilities set up on a property?

• <div><p>To get utilities set up on a property, you first have to contact the local department of planning to determine whether your property is able to connect to public utilities. From there, you can work with a structural engineer and/or a building contractor to design the layout of utility lines on the property. The pros will need this information as they begin securing building permits before they can start adding lines.</p><p>If your property isn&rsquo;t able to connect to public utilities, you&rsquo;ll need to consider working with pros to develop a comfortable off-grid home that will meet your needs.</p></div>

Q: How can I cut down my water bill?

• <div><p>A single shower consumes an average of over 17 gallons, while brushing your teeth with the water running uses up to four unnecessary gallons. Watering the lawn spreads hundreds of gallons of water across the yard each time. Limiting water usage in these areas can significantly cut down your water bill. </p></div>
