Contaminated water has been in the news a lot lately. It has certainly made me think about whether or not the water my family is drinking is the best it can be. i also wonder about hard water and the effects it can have on my appliances. We use water for everything. For washing and cleaning to cooking and as ingredients to just having something to drink. It is hard to do anything without water which is why I am excited to partner with Hellenbrand to share an offer for a free water analysis. If you have ever had to have your water shut off while the township or community works on a pipe, you are surprised how often you go to reach for something involving water.
Just think about how much water you drink in a day, or how much water you are supposed to drink in day. Some say you should be drinking 8 glasses, 8 ounces each of water a day. Some sources will say you should be drinking half your body weight in water a day. It doesn’t matter which thought you go with, it is a LOT of water. Your body needs you to drink that much. Dehydration can cause headaches, muscle aches, and tiredness. You even feel more hungry when you are thirsty. So much so, that people often mistake being thirsty for being hungry.
Having good water at your house isn’t always just about water being contaminated. Sometime the water is just hard. Hard water can permanently damage your appliances. Having hard water is caused by calcium and magnesium deposits in the water. Hard water can cause hundreds of dollars each year in appliance repairs. As the hard water starts to affect the appliances, the appliances start to not work efficiently. Water heaters start to take longer to heat water, using more electricity, and can cut the efficiency of the hot water tank by 48%. Refrigerators start to clog from the mineral deposits and then the life span is shortened. Dishes are harder to get cleaned. Even clothes will feel stiff as the washing machine can not get them as clean.

I would be very interested to have this done at my house. We get brown water here at least once a month and I know that CAN’T be good.
I would love to have this done. I’m fairly confident that we have clean water, but with everything in the news lately, you can never be too careful!
This is really good information that you posted today on your blog about water quality. I want to get a free water analysis and see how my water is!
I have a feeling I don’t think I’d like the results! Even more reason to have a water analysis, right? I think it’s really neat you can get one for free & then figure out a solution with the water geeks.
That’s an awesome offer. It would be interesting to find out how good our water actually is.
We get our water from a water company that supposedly tests our water monthly. I have to say that I don’t trust them. Why would they say their water isn’t safe? I would much rather have someone else, like Hellenbrand, test my water.
We have really hard water in Indiana with lots of calcium in it! I’d love to have our water actually analyzed!
I am very interested in having my water tested too. It smells really funky lately.
I need to have this done. You never know what could be lurking in your water!
That’s so cool that you can get a free water analysis! I know many local pediatricians offer this service too. Or at least to check fluoride levels in water.
