Stucco-trim irrigation systems routinely throw water onto adjacent glass. At 300+ mg/L hardness and 115°F evaporative load, each pass deposits a measurable mineral ring. Untreated for a season, this etches.
Chandler runs at 320 mg/L (CaCO₃) on City of Chandler Water Quality a mixed surface-and-groundwater blend — extremely hard, meaning municipal water deposits mineral residue on every exposed pane, accelerates long-term etching, and cannot be the last thing that touches the glass — most cleaners at this level run a deionized rinse.
