Water Softener & Plumbing Services
in MAGNA, UT
Magna’s water is a little different from the usual “super-hard Utah water” story because the local district actively treats and blends its supply. Magna Water District says drinking water comes from ten wells in two well fields, with additional water purchased from Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District, and the district uses an electrodialysis reversal facility to reduce total dissolved solids, arsenic, and perchlorate.
In its 2024 water-quality report, Magna Water District listed average hardness as calcium carbonate at 94.7 mg/L, with a range of 65.9 to 119 mg/L, while average total dissolved solids were 717 mg/L. That means Magna homes may deal less with extreme hardness than some Utah cities, but still run into mineral residue, spotting, taste issues, and wear on water-using equipment depending on the source blend and the home’s plumbing.
At Sharp Water Solutions, we help Magna homeowners figure out whether the better fix is a softener, whole-home filtration, reverse osmosis, plumbing repair, or a combination that fits the actual water coming into the house.

Magna water system
Magna Water District serves most of developed Magna and some surrounding areas, providing culinary water to 10,771 connections and 34,476 people, along with 1,444 secondary-water connections. The city’s water-planning document describes a system built around wells, wholesale imported water, secondary irrigation, reuse-water planning, and continued expansion to reduce treated culinary water used outdoors.
Magna’s infrastructure story also includes some real plumbing detail that matters to homeowners. In its lead-service inventory update, Magna Water District reported that it found no lead service lines, but it did identify 70 galvanized service lines that needed replacement under updated federal rules.
That’s a good reminder that even when the water meets standards, pipe materials and in-home plumbing conditions still affect how water performs at the tap.
Why Magna homeowners call us
Magna Water District says its drinking water meets or exceeds EPA, Utah Department of Environmental Quality, and Division of Drinking Water standards. Even so, the district’s own report shows meaningful mineral content, source blending, chlorine disinfection, and elevated total dissolved solids compared with ideal aesthetic targets, so homeowners can still notice water-quality annoyances day to day.
Magna also has a mature local system with secondary-water infrastructure and ongoing conservation upgrades, which means two homes in the same city may not need the exact same setup. A quick in-home water test is usually the easiest way to tell whether the better first move is softening, filtration, reverse osmosis, or plumbing work.
