Local Notes for Edina
City of Edina Public Works, Utility Division, which supplies Edina, reports hardness of about 17-20 grains per gallon (hard); the city suggests setting softeners to 3-4 grains. The small Morningside area is served by Minneapolis water, which the city says does not need softening. 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.

Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
