bringing harvey water into every home
WHAT IF THERE WAS A WAY TO KEEP SURFACES CLEAN, MAKE APPLIANCES LAST
LONGER AND SOOTHE DRY SKIN, ALL WHILE SAVING MONEY?

We use water on a daily basis and the average
home with two people living in it will use 276
litres of it per day. The water that runs through
your home is vital to the maintenance of a property
and can have an impact on everything from your
family’s skin, to boiler efficiency.

manageable hair. When having a bath, shower
and washing up you will notice more bubbles.
Not only is this a better washing experience,
but over time you will actually spend less money
on cleaning products. You simply won’t need
as many.

All of this is determined by the area you live in,
did you know you live in a hard water area?
Rainwater is ‘soft’, but when it flows underground
through limestone and chalk it picks up minerals.
Hard water then enters your home.

Softened water can help soothe your skin, also
reducing the amount of chemical products you
need to use.

The effects of hard water include scale blocking
pipes, clogging the boiler and marking shower
screens and taps. Scum clings to your hair and
skin, meaning you require products to get rid of
the residue.

Harvey Bowden founded the business in 1988
after he moved to Surrey, a hard water area, from
soft water area Cornwall. He noticed stains on
surfaces, a rise in cleaning products, all the
expenses associated with it and less efficient
appliances. His favourite benefit of softened water
is “the pure joy of clean water and the occasional
wallow in a deep bath with real soap bubbles,
which is wonderful”.

Have you ever been on holiday and enjoyed
the way your skin and hair felt? That’s the soft
water experience.
Bring holiday water home with a water softener.
Softened water lathers better with products,
which is why you are left with softer, more

Harvey Water

As well as differences with your skin and hair,
you will notice changes around your home too.
Appliances, such as your boiler and washing
machine, would have built up cm's worth of scale

over the years. The introduction of softened water
will start to descale them so they work more
efficiently and last longer. Limescale will disappear
from your surfaces too, so you can spend less
time cleaning and more time with family, or your
feet up with a cup of tea! Softened water makes
a better cup of tea too.
About the Harvey Softener
The product you see today has been tested and
adapted to be at the forefront of innovation. It
has been developed in the local factory in Old
Woking, Surrey to fit perfectly into the UK home,
under the kitchen sink.
With such a dedicated team of softener experts,
the employees know the product inside out.
Harvey’s vision of having softened water in every
home grows closer; “every home in the UK would
benefit from a Harvey Water Softener, if it makes
sense for one person, then it makes sense for
everybody. Water is used everyday and softened
water does every job better than hard water."
