General comment Soft water is water that is free from dissolved salts of metals such as calcium, iron, or magnesium. It is water with a very low mineral content, typically defined as less than 1 GPG. Water above this threshold is considered hard. Soft water is gentler on the skin and hair. It contains low amounts of ions like calcium and magnesium and is called 'soft' because of its simple composition. It doesn't leave scale inside appliances, and reduces the amount of water needed in dishwashers and washing machines.
