Official utility context
Local water report — aesthetic focus
Brunswick addresses may be served by Cleveland Water or Medina County Northwest with Avon Lake–treated water. Confirm the provider on your water bill, then use the matching utility report.
If Cleveland Water serves the address, reported hardness is 105–130 mg/L as CaCO₃, average 117 mg/L (~6.8 gpg). Medina Northwest / Avon Lake reports often omit hardness, so Softstone will not invent a number; the free in-home visit measures it at your tap.
Cleveland Water plant averages are roughly 1.09–1.20 ppm; Avon Lake reports roughly 1.42 ppm (about 1.30–1.54). These numbers provide taste-and-odor context only.
- Confirm your supplier at the address (Cleveland Water vs Medina County Northwest / Avon Lake–treated)
- On Cleveland Water: hardness ~105–130 mg/L as CaCO₃ (~6.8 gpg average) and chlorine ~1.09–1.20 ppm
- Medina Northwest / Avon Lake: hardness is often not listed in the CCR — Softstone measures hardness at your tap during the free test
- Avon Lake chlorine residual is roughly 1.42 ppm (about 1.30–1.54) — taste/odor preference only
- Common notices include mineral spotting, scale, and chlorine taste or odor
Public utility reports describe the municipal system. Softstone’s free visit tests hardness and discusses taste/odor at your tap. This is not a health diagnosis.
