Vineyard, Utah Water Hardness & Water Softener Guide
Vineyard has very hard water at about 20 grains per gallon — here is what that means for your home and how to fix it.
Where Vineyard’s water comes from
Vineyard’s water comes primarily from Wells and Central Utah Project. 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 Vineyard 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.
What CASA recommends in Vineyard
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.
