Water Softener Installation in Grapevine, TX
Grapevine is supplied by City of Grapevine, which draws surface water. That one fact does more to predict whether a softener is worth it here than anything a salesperson will ask you on the phone.
The short version
The supplier for Grapevine is City of Grapevine, drawing surface water. Surface water has had far less contact with rock, so it is more often soft enough to leave alone. Whether a softener is worth installing turns on the hardness figure that supplier publishes each year, not on anything assessed over the telephone.

What to do with thatGet your hardness figure
Before anyone visits, pull the hardness figure out of the annual report City of Grapevine publishes. It settles most of the question on its own. The units differ on purpose-built confusion: mg/L on the report, grains per gallon on the equipment.
Put it through the sizing calculation and you will know what to accept and what to refuse. If your fixtures also stain orange, iron has to be settled first — oxidized iron clogs softener resin.
