Water in Memphis is Slightly Hard
According to our proprietary data, the average total water hardness in Memphis is 3.2 grains per gallon (gpg), which falls in the moderately hard range. This means there’s a fair amount of calcium and magnesium in the water here — two minerals that can build up over time and leave behind residue in your pipes, appliances, and fixtures. This buildup can make things less efficient and even shorten the life of your home’s systems if left unchecked.

Memphis, TN water sources
Memphis residents have faced significant water challenges in recent years, highlighting the importance of reliable water solutions for homeowners. In January, Memphis Light Gas and Water issued a boil-water advisory affecting more than 600,000 people for five days due to freezing temperatures that caused pipes to break. Additionally, parts of Germantown experienced water outages for several days in July 2023 after diesel fuel leaked into one of the city’s underground reservoirs.
These incidents demonstrate how quickly water access can be disrupted, leaving residents without safe drinking water, cooking water, or water for basic household needs like bathing and cleaning. While Memphis was recognized in a 2023 EPA study as having the cleanest drinking water among 70 large cities surveyed, the recent infrastructure failures and contamination events show that even high-quality municipal water systems can face unexpected challenges that impact homeowners’ daily lives.
