Pleasant Grove, Utah Water Hardness & Water Softener Guide
Pleasant Grove has very hard water at about 20 grains per gallon — here is what that means for your home and how to fix it.
Where Pleasant Grove’s water comes from
Pleasant Grove’s water comes primarily from Canyon 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 20 grains per gallon hard?
Yes. Water above 7 gpg is considered hard, so Pleasant Grove at 20 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.
