Why does it seem like on this report Ca and Mg have doubled since the numbers we posted for Bru'in water? I remember you saying you have a family member that works right at the plant so I know these numbers are good, just curious in our differences.

I honestly don't have a answer. I will ask my dad the next time I see him. He did say that there is quite a bit a variance based on time of year and weather conditions. I'll get back to you .

I think there's a unit conversion going on. The water report is "as CaCO3", but the Bru'n Water sheet uses straight ppm. There is a section at the bottom of the Water Report Input tab that will do that for you.

For example, Ca at 61 ppm as CaCO3 translates to 24.5 ppm (straight).

That explains it. I forgot about the units. So that is still in line with previous numbers.
