Answer:
Hard water in Industry: It will cause build up of limescale in pipes causing reduced flow and cause pipes to need to be replaced. Hard water in cooling towers can reduce the effectiveness of heat transfer, causing increased running costs. In the textile industry, it can make yarn stiff/scratchy.
Hardness in water is the main source of scale formation in heat transfer equipment, boilers and pipelines: It will cause buildup of scale in pipes causing reduced flow and pressure drop increase, then causing greater pumping cost associated, and eventually causing pipes to need to be internally cleaned or replaced.
Symptoms of Hard Water include:
Stiff, dingy laundry.
Mineral deposits on dishes and glassware.
High soap usage & need for fabric softeners.
Extra work to remove soap curd on bathtubs & shower stalls.
High energy costs, possibly due to scale build-up in pipes and on appliances.
