North Salt Lake water
North Salt Lake operates its own municipal water system and buys the rest from Weber Basin. Its most recent Consumer Confidence Report states the drinking water meets federal and state requirements with no violations. The supply is mineral-rich, which is common for groundwater along this stretch of the Wasatch Front.

City of North Salt Lake Water Department
Source: About 60% from the city's own deep wells and pump stations, with the remaining 40% purchased from the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District..
The North Salt Lake report does not publish a hardness number, but its total dissolved solids of 888 to 980 mg/L and sodium and sulfate readings are consistent with the mineral-rich groundwater typical of the area.
What stands out
Where it comes from
The city produces roughly 60% of its culinary water at its own pump stations and deep wells, and purchases the other 40% from the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District, per the city's water department.
Dissolved minerals (TDS)
The report lists total dissolved solids from 888 to 980 mg/L, within the 1000 mg/L limit. That is on the higher side for the region and reflects the mineral content of the local groundwater.
What was measured
Reported figures include sulfate at 73.7 to 108 mg/L, sodium at 127 to 131 mg/L, nitrate at 3.17 to 3.55 mg/L (limit 10), arsenic at 0.0006 to 0.0007 mg/L (limit 0.01), and a lead 90th percentile of 0.0068 mg/L within the 0.015 action level. Every contaminant showed no violation.

What helps
What we would do about it.
Because North Salt Lake water carries higher dissolved minerals, a drinking-water ionizer at the sink gives you cleaner, better tasting alkaline water, while a whole-home salt-free conditioner helps reduce scale buildup on fixtures and appliances.
