Saratoga Springs water

City of Saratoga Springs
Source: A blend of city ground water (Wells #2, #3, #4 and #6) and treated surface water piped in by the Central Utah Water Conservancy District, Utah Valley (per the 2024 CCR)..
The 2024 CCR does not publish a single hardness number, but the wide TDS range of 144 to 672 ppm reflects a mineral content that climbs to the hard end depending on source and season.

What stands out
Total dissolved solids vary by source
The 2024 report lists TDS at 144 to 672 ppm (mg/L) across the well and surface blend, against a 2000 ppm limit. The high end of that range is what drives scale and spotting in parts of the city.
Sodium and sulfate
Sodium ranged 7.1 to 61.7 ppm and sulfate 13.9 to 144.7 ppm, both within limits. The spread reflects mixing two very different sources, ground water and treated surface water.
No PFAS detected; lead non-detect
The city tested for 29 PFAS compounds and found no detections. Its 2024 lead sampling at 30 sites also found no lead detections, and all service lines were determined to be non-lead.

What helps
What we would do about it.
If you would like smoother-tasting drinking water and less scale from the harder source water, a drinking-water ionizer at the tap with a whole-home salt-free conditioner is a tidy, low-maintenance pairing. Visit The Well in Heber City for a free water test so you can see your own readings first.
