Las Vegas Valley homeowners choosing or adjusting water treatment
Worth noticing
Its source table distinguishes well-dependent systems, listing Searchlight at 3–23 grains per gallon and Blue Diamond at 23–24.

Field notes

The source table breaks out water systems by utility and, in some cases, by well or service area rather than treating the valley as uniform. The calculator’s task choices include buying a first softener, replacing one, setting an existing unit, choosing salt-free treatment, or seeking better-tasting drinking water. The page says its figures come from utility reports and were checked against the original documents.
