Hi Gang,
I promise to bring closure to my post by posting the after 50% water change Test Result.
I actually would expect the Chloride level to be lower than 556 PPM because initially it was 757 PPM.
If I changed my water by 50%, I should be getting 378 PPM and not 556 :grrrr:
The new water supposedly mountain water, does mountain water contain Chloride ?
True to what ChemGeek said, I should have send the "new" water for testing too........
Anyway some progress were made as per test but some actually went up in value
Turbidity improved from 1.68 to 1.32 ( I hope my staff uses a clean bottle. I was hoping better than 1.32, even though I totally have no reference how beautiful water clarity 1 NTU is.......... )
REDUCED - Color was 13.5 , now 11.5
REDUCED - Ammonia was 0.071 , now 0.048
REDUCED - Fluoride was 1.32, now 0.354
REDUCED - NO3 ( Nitrate ) was 5.54 , now 4.26
REDUCED - NO2 ( Nitrate ???? ) was 0.064 , now 0.031
REDUCED - Na ( Natrium ?? ) was 72.65 , now 57.62
REDUCED - TDS was 2070 , now 1215
INCREASED
The Iron was <0.01 now it is 0.083. So I think ChemGeek was accurate to suspect my new water has more iron than my old water based on the brownish color during super chlorination.............Dang you are GOOD my man !!! I should call you ChemGOD instead
Can I be getting iron from the rust of the steel water truck's tank ?
INCREASED
SO4 (Sulfate ) was 49.89 , now 83.54 .......me no understand this.
INCREASED - How Come ?????
CaCO3 ......was 136, now 186....
ChemGeek need to explain what all this means, me chemistry dummy
