Atlanta's municipal water contains moderate levels of calcium and magnesium, which accumulate as white mineral deposits on faucet aerators, inside cartridges, and around drain openings. These deposits restrict water flow and create uneven spray patterns that many homeowners mistake for low water pressure. The chlorine and chloramine used in treatment can also degrade rubber O-rings and washers faster than in untreated well water systems. During summer months when water usage spikes across the metro area, pressure fluctuations stress fixture connections and accelerate wear on valve seats. Regular aerator cleaning and periodic cartridge inspection help manage these issues.
