Water hardness is caused by the presence of positively charged metallic ions, most commonly calcium and magnesium.
Water becomes hard when it comes into contact with limestone and other rocks that contain calcium compounds. For example, rainwater that flows over rocks on its way to a reservoir can pick up calcium and magnesium ions.
