Why Henderson's water matters for price

The City of Henderson's 2026 Water Quality Report (2025 data) says its water is typically 304 ppm, or 18 grains per gallon, which it calls "very hard," and suggests setting softeners between 16 and 19 gpg. (Source: City of Henderson 2026 Water Quality Report) Harder water and bigger households need more softening capacity, which drives price (HomeGuide).

Henderson's 2026 report gives one typical figure (304 ppm, 18 gpg) with no range or breakdown by neighborhood. Your tap may read differently, so ask installers to test before they size a system.

Will a water softener make my drinking water taste better?

Not necessarily. A softener trades hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium for other substances, often sodium, so it targets scale rather than taste. For drinking water, an under-sink reverse osmosis system is the usual choice, and TDS reduction is a required claim for RO systems certified to NSF/ANSI 58.
