Around Portland
Portland Water Bureau, which supplies Portland, reports hardness of bull Run supply about 7-11 ppm (roughly 0.5 grain per gallon, soft); groundwater supply about 80 ppm (about 5 grains per gallon, 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.
