Hard water in Phoenix damaging skin, hair, and plumbing pipes – APS Plumbing AZ

Hard Water in Phoenix: How It Affects Your Skin, Hair, and Pipes

Table of Contents

With mineral levels measuring 14-17 grains per gallon (GPG), Phoenix has some of the hardest water in the nation. This complete guide reveals how these minerals impact your daily life and what solutions actually work in Arizona’s unique conditions.


Why Phoenix Water Is Exceptionally Hard

Our water absorbs calcium and magnesium as it moves through limestone aquifers. The result:

  • White scale buildup on fixtures

  • Soap that won’t lather properly

  • Increased wear on plumbing systems

Skin and Hair Damage 🧴

Many Phoenix residents experience:

  • Increased dryness and irritation

  • Worsening of eczema symptoms

  • Dull, brittle hair that’s hard to manage

  • Scaly, itchy skin after showering

The minerals in hard water create a film on skin and hair, preventing moisture absorption and clogging pores.


Home Plumbing Consequences 🛠️

Over time, hard water causes:

  • Reduced water pressure from mineral buildup

  • Shortened lifespan of water heaters and appliances

  • Frequent repairs and replacements

  • Scale accumulation in pipes and fixtures
