Not bad quality as in “unsafe to drink,” but bad as in “lots of dissolved minerals.” Running off the mountains down to the front range allows the water to pick up lots of minerals that make it taste good, but those minerals can wreak havoc on the moving parts of a dishwasher. I’ve had mineral deposit issues causing lots of scaling in my house, so I recently installed a Nuvo H20 citric acid water conditioner. Hopefully my faucet heads will stop crusting over.

If you make the investment in a new dishwasher, investing in a water conditioner might be a good choice as well.
