Lake Elsinore Water Quality & Your Plumbing

Lake Elsinore has some of the hardest water in Riverside County. Here is what that means for your plumbing.

Understanding the Water

Lake Elsinore’s well water sits on ancient seabed deposits rich in calcium and magnesium. Hardness is 15-25 grains per gallon — very hard.

How It Affects Your Plumbing

Minerals deposit on pipe walls narrowing diameter. Sediment builds in water heaters reducing efficiency and lifespan. Scale damages faucets and appliance valves.

Solutions

Install a water softener. Flush your water heater annually. Clean aerators monthly with vinegar.

We offer free water testing. Call 951-309-3429 to schedule.
