Preventing Hard Water Stains in Your Bathtubs, Showers, and Sinks

Preventing Hard Water Stains

We are continuing our series of articles addressing hard water stains on bathtubs, showers, and sinks. The most effective way to prevent hard water stains is to use a hard water descaler. ScaleBlaster is a hard water descaler and limescale eliminator that prevents new scale from forming. This ecofriendly water softener alternative is affordable, easy to install, maintenance free, and can spare you from the headaches caused by hard water.

If you do not have an electronic descaling system installed in your home, you will need to take precautions to protect your bathtubs, showers, and sinks from hard water stains:

  • Wipe down your tubs, sinks, and showers after each use with a soft cloth or sponge. This will remove any soap scum or other residue that can lead to staining.
  • Use a mild soap when bathing and avoid using products that contain harsh chemicals or abrasives. These can damage the finish on your tub and make it more susceptible to staining.
  • Avoid letting hard water sit in your tubs and sinks for long periods of time. If you do take a bath, be sure to drain the tub immediately afterwards.
  • Clean your tubs, sinks, and showers regularly with a non-abrasive cleaner. This will help to remove any build-up of soap scum or minerals that can lead to staining.

If you want to avoid the hassles of having to take extra precautions to protect your sinks, showers, and tubs from the negative effects of hard water, then consider installing the preferred ecofriendly water softener alterative that is proven to prevent hard water issues from occurring. The ScaleBlaster electronic descaling system has been the preferred choice for homeowners for more than three decades. Are you ready to rid your home of hard water problems?
