City of Phoenix Water Services Department, which supplies Phoenix, reports hardness of 187-278 ppm (about 10.9-16.2 grains per gallon) total hardness in the distribution system, per the city's report; hard water that can cause scaling. Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
