HARD WATER BASICS HOW A WATER SOFTENER WORKS Hard water contains high concentrations of calcium and magnesium minerals. When water flows through soil and rocks, these minerals are picked up, ending up in our water supplies. A water softener removes these minerals from the water supply to minimize the toll on your home and wallet. An overwhelming 85% of the USA has hard water. The following hard water map illustrates the varying zones of hardness across the USA.
