Is Stansbury Park hard water?
At 380 ppm (22.22 gpg), Stansbury Park sits in the very hard band — above about 10.5 grains per gallon is very hard on the USGS scale. Scale shows up first inside the water heater, then on fixtures and glass. See the hardness scale.
What Stansbury Park’s hardness means in practice
Sizing is arithmetic once you have a number. At 22.2 grains per gallon — the published figure — a household using the EPA average of more than 300 gallons a day sends roughly 6,666 grains of hardness through its plumbing every day. Over a year that is about 348 pounds of scale-forming calcium and magnesium passing through the water heater and the fixtures.
Against that load a 32,000-grain softener would regenerate roughly every 4.8 days and a 48,000-grain unit about every 7.2 days. Those are first estimates off the figure Stansbury Park publishes, not a quote: your own use, any iron in the water, and whether you want softened water at the kitchen tap all move the answer, which is why we measure at your tap before sizing anything.
What CASA recommends in Stansbury Park
Stansbury Park’s figure is high enough that scale is a maintenance cost rather than a nuisance, so a properly sized softener comes first. Reverse osmosis and whole-home carbon handle taste and chlorine separately.
