Anchorage Water & Wastewater Utility (AWWU), which supplies Anchorage, reports hardness of 83-130 mg/L total hardness (ppm as CaCO3), moderately hard. 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.
