February 19, 200917 yr Does anyone know the hardness of the tap water in Chiangmai? Neither searching this forum nor googling gave me an answer. Without know an exact number, I'd suggest that it's about in the middle of the scale. All our laundry soaps and bar soaps lathered up easily, and there was never any massive calcium carbonate buildup on garden pottery after the water evaporated, even over time, indicating that it wasn't too hard. On the other side, it never had that silky feel with shower soaps that really soft water usually gives. If you need to know the exact number, you can pick up a test kit at one of the chemical supply houses on Suthep Road.
