What Indianapolis Owners Should Know
Citizens Energy Group (Citizens Water), which supplies Indianapolis, reports hardness of averages about 320 mg/L as CaCO3, about 19 grains per gallon (very hard); varies by treatment plant source. Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
