Plumber in Goodyear, AZ. The City Tells You to Set Softeners at 14 to 20 Grains.
Most Goodyear jobs get done the day you call, and you approve the price before anybody starts. That matters in a city where nearly four out of five houses went up in 2000 or later and the building has not stopped since. A house finished in 2007 is not a new house anymore, and neither is the original equipment inside it.

Plumbing in Goodyear: What Shapes the Work
About 77 percent of what comes out of a Goodyear tap started in the Colorado River. It travels through the Central Arizona Project canal and then through five miles of pipe to a treatment plant the city finished in 2021. The other 23 percent comes up out of the ground from Goodyear's own wells. The city runs both ends of that system right up to your meter. Everything past the meter belongs to the house, and that is the side we work on.
One Goodyear neighborhood has been under construction since 1988, and that changes what is underneath the houses in it. Estrella had its grand opening in June 1988, finished its first homes in 1989, and is still going. A development group paid 212.5 million dollars for 18,000 more acres of it in 2021. PebbleCreek is the other end of that story. It started in 1993, ran to about 6,100 homes, and it is done. Two master plans in one city, one still building and one finished. The age of the pipe in your house depends on which one you live in and when your street went in.
If you are shopping for a water softener in Goodyear, the number you want is not in the city's report. The number Goodyear does publish for its water is sodium: 139 parts per million on average, with samples running from 86 to 300. Hardness is not in the report at all. The closest the city comes is a line telling residents to set a softener between 14 and 20 grains per gallon for the best water efficiency. That is guidance for a dial. It is not a reading from a tap, and sizing equipment off the wrong number is guessing at the salt and at the bill.
