Water hardness in Zierikzee

The water hardness in Zierikzee is around 13,0 dH as stated on your water company’s website Evides.

At this level of hardness, the water in Zierikzee is moderately hard. This means there is quite a lot of calcium in your water, as a water hardness of 13 dH equates to 231.4 grams of calcium in every m³ water. By using a water softener, you can remove all this limescale from your tap water!

Every year, 34.71 kilograms of limescale ends up in your water

If your average water consumption is 150 m³ per year, your water softener processes 150 m annually³ x 231.4 grams = 34.71 kilograms of limescale removed from your water! This is how you prevent that annoying limescale build-up that spoils the look of your shower, blocks your coffee machine and shower head, and reduces the efficiency of your hot-water pipes.

Soft water in Zierikzee

The water hardness in Zierikzee is around 13 dH. This means that the water in Zierikzee is fairly soft. In southern Europe, for example, water hardness levels of 50 dH are not uncommon. Nevertheless, even this relatively soft water can cause limescale and other adverse effects. Soft water is water that is free of or has had the calcium removed from it. As soft water does not occur naturally in the Netherlands, a water softener is a good solution for adverse effects of limescale to get rid of.

Water hardness in the rest of the country

The Water hardness in the Netherlands varies considerably: it ranges from just over 2 dH to as much as 15 dH. This is because water is sometimes sourced from low-calcium sources, such as surface water (rivers, streams) or water from the dunes. The water extracted from these sources generally has a low, natural hardness. However, in the Netherlands, groundwater is usually used. This almost always results in much higher water hardness because this water is found in calcium-rich soil layers. This is caused by the remains of shellfish that lived here thousands of years ago – when the Netherlands was still under water.
