Sydney's tap water is considered to be soft. "Hardness" in water refers to the mineral content, primarily calcium and magnesium ions. Soft water contains fewer of these ions, while hard water has a higher concentration.
Sydney's water supply primarily comes from surface water sources, such as dams and reservoirs. The treatment processes employed are designed to maintain a lower mineral content, resulting in relatively soft water. This makes the water gentle on the skin, hair, and household appliances.
The exact hardness of water can vary slightly based on the specific area within Sydney and the treatment processes in use. If you need precise and up-to-date information about water hardness in a particular area of Sydney, you can contact the local water utility or relevant authorities for detailed data and assessments.
