Mapleton, Utah Water Hardness & Water Softener Guide
Mapleton has very hard water at about 19 grains per gallon — here is what that means for your home and how to fix it.
Where Mapleton’s water comes from
Mapleton’s water comes primarily from Springs and wells. As that water moves through Utah’s mineral-rich geology it picks up calcium and magnesium — the minerals that make water hard and leave scale behind.
Is 19 grains per gallon hard?
Yes. Water above 7 gpg is considered hard, so Mapleton at 19 gpg is very hard — among the hardest water in the country. Hard water shortens the life of water heaters and appliances, spots dishes and glass, clogs fixtures, and dries skin and hair.
What CASA recommends in Mapleton
Your water is hard – a properly sized water softener is strongly recommended. For drinking and cooking, pair it with a reverse-osmosis system, and add whole-home carbon filtration to remove chlorine taste and odor at every tap.
