World Water Day and the Type of Water in Your Steam Shower



As we celebrate World Water Day today we focus our attention on the importance of freshwater and the sustainable management of freshwater resources. Since 1993, after the United Nations formally March 22 as World Water Day, each year focuses on a different issue. This year the theme is centered on water and those jobs created either directly or indirectly by water sources on the globe.

We can identify with this year’s theme as Soak Saskatoon sells products that are customers use to enjoy water in their hot tubs, steam showers, steam baths etc… Once concern that some of our customers have is using hard water with our products. Hard water occurs when it contains high mineral content due to water filters through porous surfaces leaving deposits of limestone and chalk which are largely made up of calcium and magnesium carbonates.

While hard water isn’t harmful to you, it may damage plumbing systems, decorative hardware, faucet and glass. You may even want to consider a water treatment system if the water quality is a concern. Many of our steam showers can be used with a water softener. You can find water softeners at the Home Depot or Sears and their price range varies. On World Water Day, the type of water that you use is important for your steam shower.
