Top 5 Water Problems in Bellingham

1. Hard Water Buildup
   Hard water in Bellingham often leads to white scale buildup on faucets, cloudy glassware, and reduced soap effectiveness. 
2. Iron in Water (Rust Stains)
   Well water users in the area may notice orange or reddish stains in sinks, tubs, or on laundry. This is usually caused by iron. 
3. Chlorine Taste and Smell
   While city water is safe, it’s often treated with chlorine that leaves an unpleasant taste or odor. 
4. Cloudy or Dirty Water
   Some homes experience discolored or cloudy water due to sediment or turbidity in well water. 
5. Dry Skin and Hair
   Hard water can dry out skin and hair, especially during the colder Bellingham winters. Softened water helps retain moisture, making your showers and baths noticeably better.
