The following is a list of steps that you can take to test you water for hardness:
If you live in a municipal area, contact your local water company.
If you live in a rural area, or some suburban areas, contact your local water company or a county extension agent.
Have your water tested by a laboratory.
You can have your household tap water tested for hardness, dissolved solids, iron, PH, and amount of corrosiveness by an independent, EPA certified laboratory.
Soft water is 0-3 grains.
Medium water is 3-7 grains.
Hard water is 7-12 grains.
Anything over 12 grains is extremely hard, and a water softener is recommended.
