DIY Hard Water Test

If you’re not sure whether your home has hard or soft water and want to find out quickly, you can do an easy hard water test at home. Fill a clean, empty bottle (with a lid or cap) with tap water up to one-third full. Add one to three drops of liquid dish soap. Put the lid or cap on the bottle and shake it thoroughly for five seconds. Look at the contents of the bottle. If there are lots of bubbles, your water is likely soft. If there aren’t many bubbles and/or the water looks cloudy, your water is likely hard.
