White deposits, soap scum

This is an inidcation that you have hard water, meaning high calcium and magnesium.

Treatment is using a water softener. The water softener manufacturer should have several models that list the amount of hardness it will remove.

Always have your water tested and base any treatment on those results. Our Water Quality Interpretation Tool will aid you in your decisions.
