Magna is the softest
water on this map.
Magna reports 96.8 mg/L as calcium carbonate — about 5.7 grains per gallon — from ten wells across two well fields plus supplemental Jordan Valley district water. That is the softest published figure of any city we serve, and it changes the advice: at this level a whole-home softener is often not the right purchase, and we will tell you so rather than sell you one.

- Hardness scaleThe USGS classifies water above 180 mg/L as calcium carbonate (about 10.5 grains per gallon) as very hard, 121 to 180 mg/L as hard, and 61 to 120 mg/L as moderately hard. USGS
We publish the utility's own figures and link them so you can check us. Your tap is still what counts — hardness moves with the source and the season — so we measure before we size anything.
