Water heaters in St. Petersburg
In a 1969-median city, many water heaters are on a third or fourth cycle, often in 1950s garages or utility rooms. We do not treat the Pinellas County system’s 2024 average hardness of 210 ppm as a St.
Petersburg-only number. A failed tank is still an emergency, including after storm outages in 2024.

American Community Survey 2020–2024 estimates put the median year built at 1969, with 141,508 housing units. About 14% were built in 2000 or later, and about 37% were built before 1960.
Do you publish a water-hardness number for St. Petersburg?
Pinellas County’s 2024 Consumer Confidence Report lists an average total hardness of 210 ppm for the county system (range 168–252 ppm). That is the county system, not a St. Petersburg-only figure, so city pages mention it only as nearby official context, not as a city-wide number. If you need the current finished-water data, use the official utility Consumer Confidence Report.
Who issues the permit in St. Petersburg?
