Provo says
moderately hard.
Provo publishes 10 to 15 grains per gallon from springs and deep wells, and describes it as moderately hard. By the USGS scale the upper half of that range is very hard, so the label undersells it a little. Five grains of spread is also enough to change what you should buy.

- 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.

Provo's own description is moderately hard, but the published 10 to 15 grain range straddles the USGS line between hard and very hard. The bottom of that range and the top call for different equipment.
