Hard water and South Jordan homes

85% of homes here heat with gas (85%, above the Utah figure of 79%), and scale settles as sediment in gas tanks, which then rumble and wear out early.

68% of homes were built in 2000 or later, and many newer homes in hard-water areas have a pre-plumbed softener loop that makes installation simpler. Your water utility's annual report gives the exact hardness.

In Utah: Cold winters freeze exposed pipes and sprinkler lines, which must be blown out each fall.
