If you live in Arepo, Magboro, Mowe, Sagamu or Sango Ota, you have probably seen white chalky marks on your kettle, tiles and taps. That is hard water, and it does more than look untidy. Here is what causes it, the damage it quietly does, and how to soften it properly.
Those stains are calcium and magnesium carbonates, the minerals that make water hard. Many boreholes across Ogun State draw from mineral-rich ground, so the problem shows up estate after estate. The marks on your kettle are the same deposits forming inside pipes and appliances where you cannot see them.
Hard water is more than a cosmetic nuisance:
Consistently very hard water is also worth managing for long-term health, which is another reason to bring mineral levels back into a safe range rather than living with them.
