How hard is the water in Owensville?
Clermont County Water Resources does not publish a finished-water hardness figure, so we test on site rather than quote a number nobody has measured.
- Hardness
- Not published by the utility
- Source
- Three plants feeding one shared system: wells in the Little Miami River valley aquifer, wells in the Ohio River valley aquifer, and Harsha Lake
- Treatment
- Only one of the three plants softens. The MGS plant at Miamiville is an ion exchange softening plant, while the PUB plant removes iron and manganese and the Bob McEwen plant is conventional surface treatment with granular activated carbon.
- Worth knowing
- All three Clermont County plants pump into one shared system, so the hardness at your tap depends on which plant is feeding your address that day. A county average would be a guess. Owensville sits in Stonelick Township, toward the eastern edge of the county system. We test on site.
Source: Clermont County Water Resources, Water Supply Division, 2025 reporting year. Hardness bands follow the Water Quality Association scale: soft under 3.5 grains, moderate 3.5 to 7, hard 7 to 10.5, very hard above 10.5.
