8.3 grains.
Genuinely moderate.
Saratoga Springs publishes 8.3 grains per gallon — 142 ppm — from Central Utah district water plus five city wells, and describes it as moderately hard. That is toward the soft end for this region. Treating it is still reasonable if you want spot-free glass and longer heater life, but the case is about preference rather than damage control.
