Water hardness in the Netherlands

We are increasingly asked what the hardness of tap water is in certain municipalities. To answer this question, we have listed the hardness of tap water in all municipalities in the Netherlands in alphabetical order. The hardness of tap water is different in every municipality because the tap water is extracted from different areas in the Netherlands.

From 6 °D we speak of hard water.

Water hardness in the Netherlands differs per region

The Dutch water companies use different water sources. The amount of minerals varies per source. The hardness therefore also varies per region. The Water Supply Decree (which determines the standards that Dutch water companies must adhere to) describes both a minimum and a maximum standard for the hardness of tap water. This should be between 5.6°D and 14°D.
