11.4 average.
4.7 to 27.1 underneath it.
Murray publishes an average of 11.4 grains per gallon — 194 mg/L — across 19 deep wells and eight springs. The useful detail is in the range behind that average: individual sources run from 4.7 all the way to 27.1 grains. Your reading depends on which of those is feeding your line.

- 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.

Murray's 11.4 grain average comes from 19 deep wells and 8 springs whose individual readings run from 4.7 to 27.1. Two Murray homes on different sources are not getting the same water, which is why the average is a starting point rather than an answer.
