Water softener installation in Cedarburg, WI
21–24 grains per gallon · Cedarburg’s published figure
Cedarburg’s utility answers the hardness question on its own website, in grains, and tells you the supply is not softened. That is the whole brief for a system here, handed over before anyone knocks on your door.

Where Cedarburg gets its water
Cedarburg is served by Cedarburg Light and Water. The supply is deep groundwater wells, and the utility states plainly that it is not softened.
Cedarburg Light and Water publishes the range itself, and says the supply is NOT softened.
The utility publishes it in as many words: the hardness in Cedarburg’s water supply is approximately 21 to 24 grains, the public water supply is not softened, and the water comes from deep groundwater wells and is high in minerals. There is no ambiguity to resolve here and no averaging to do.

What Cedarburg homes usually need
- Free quote by phone
- Installed by a licensed WI plumber
- Softeners retested to zero
$3,950 installed for the ZeroGrain One: softener, activated carbon and the reverse-osmosis drinking tap. Installation by an independent licensed Wisconsin plumbing contractor is in that number, not added to it, and the date is set once the equipment is in hand and approved for use in Wisconsin (SPS 384). What a softener costs explains what the $3,950 includes. Swapping out an old unit is replacing a softener; the drinking tap is reverse osmosis installation.

Questions
Cedarburg water questions
Anything that is not here, ask it on the call.
Softening removes hardness minerals. It is not a health or safety treatment and we do not market it as one. On a private well, Wisconsin’s state-certified lab tests for bacteria and nitrates are a separate matter and not something we sell.
Very hard water through an older house
Cedarburg’s housing stock runs old, and old plumbing plus very hard water is the combination where scale shows up first in the water heater and the fixtures. The install location follows the main line, so knowing where your shutoff and heater are makes the call faster.
Sizing at this hardness is arithmetic, not opinion
Measured hardness, iron, household size and peak flow set the capacity. Miss in either direction and it costs you: oversized wastes salt and rinse water forever, undersized runs out of capacity between regenerations and puts hard water back at the tap at the worst part of the day.
How does the quote work in Cedarburg?
We start from the number, not from a catalog: what Cedarburg publishes, and what your house needs. One short call puts the two together, at no charge. If the numbers justify softening we size it from them; if they point away from softening, the call says so plainly. On install day the plumber reads hardness, iron, chlorine and TDS at your tap before anything is connected, and on a softener install retests hardness at the end so you watch it read zero.
