Start by Ruling Out Simple Causes Using Local Water Data

Check Tap Water Hardness Awareness

Water hardness from calcium and magnesium can affect skin dryness. U.S. Geological Survey data for Navajo County aquifer 220NAVJ shows calcium plus magnesium between 1.23 and 163.0 mg/L across 14 wells sampled from 2010 to 2019. Knowing these regional figures helps frame whether hardness might contribute to dry skin at home.

Consider Household Water Testing

While area data provide a regional range, only a specific test of your water determines your exact hardness level. Starting with a basic hardness test kit or professional water analysis clarifies the need for more advanced treatment.

Exclude Other Common Home Factors

Besides water quality, dry skin may stem from indoor humidity, soaps, or health conditions. Rule these out first to confirm water as the primary factor before selecting treatment equipment.

How Public Aquifer Sampling Differs from Private Well Testing

Regional Sampling Shows Broad Trends, Not Specific Wells

The USGS data represent a sampling of wells 554 to 3737 feet deep across Navajo County’s aquifer 220NAVJ. These findings illustrate what can occur in the area but do not specify the composition of any individual well or tap water.

No Federal Limits Were Exceeded in the Sampled Wells

All reported hardness readings stayed well below thresholds associated with safety concerns. This confirms that while hardness is detectable, it is not a federal safety violation in this region.

Match Treatment Capacity to Your Household’s Daily Water Use

Consider Number of Occupants and Water Consumption Patterns

A larger household or higher daily water use requires a treatment system sized accordingly to maintain comfortable skin feel consistently. Calculating average daily water demand guides treatment selection.

Account for Peak Usage Times

Some households experience spikes in water use that call for equipment capable of handling short bursts without performance loss, helping prevent skin dryness from untreated water.

Recognizing Differences in Water Feel After Using the Pentair Dry, Itchy Skin System

Noticeably Softer Water Sensation

Once equipped with the Pentair Dry, Itchy Skin System, water tends to feel less harsh to skin and hair, contributing to improved skin hydration and comfort.

Reduced Mineral Effects That May Cause Dryness

The system modifies calcium and magnesium presence, reducing their potential to dry the skin, noticeable in daily bathing and washing.

Understand the Scope and Significance of the Regional USGS Sampling

Sample Size and Depth

The data encompass 40 hardness measurements from 14 separate wells sampled over nearly a decade, providing a robust overview of typical water quality conditions in the Navajo County aquifer.

Limitations of Regional Data

These figures reflect general groundwater conditions but cannot substitute for testing of your household water source to determine individual treatment needs precisely.

How the Pentair System Addresses Hardness-Related Dry Skin

Altering Calcium and Magnesium Interaction

The Pentair Dry, Itchy Skin System works by changing how hardness minerals interact with water and skin, mitigating dryness without removing all minerals.

Maintaining Balanced Water Chemistry

This approach helps keep water from feeling harsh while avoiding excessive stripping that can cause other skin issues or plumbing impacts.

In Closing

The U.S. Geological Survey’s sampling of Navajo County aquifer 220NAVJ wells shows a range of calcium and magnesium hardness typical for the area but does not define any individual household’s water. For accurate treatment selection to address dry skin, test your water alongside considering these regional values.

Where this information comes from

Source: USGS groundwater sampling. Sampled 2019-08-23. These figures describe groundwater sampled in this area. They are not a test of any individual private well - only a test of that well can establish its own water.

On record: U.S. Geological Survey sampling of Hardness, Ca, Mg in the 220NAVJ aquifer (Navajo County): 40 results from 14 wells, median 2.935 mg/L, range 1.23-163.0 mg/L; none above any federal threshold
