Kind water for every tap in your Cedar Rapids home.
Cedar Rapids lime-softens its water, taking it from about 15.8 grains at the plant to an average of 6.5 to 7 grains — here is what that means for your home, whether you need a softener at all, and what each option costs.
What’s really coming out of your tap?
Most homes deal with all three at once — and you can’t see any of them.
Chlorine & Chemicals
City water is chlorinated to kill bacteria — often more than a swimming pool. It irritates skin, eyes, and lungs, and leaves a taste and smell.

Cedar Rapids and the surrounding area.
Robins buys its water from Cedar Rapids, so it gets the same lime-softened supply, and so does Marion’s Glenbrook Cove neighborhood. The rest of Marion, plus Hiawatha, Ely and Fairfax, pump their own wells, and EPA treatment records list no softening for any of them.
