Here in Central Florida rain water supplements pool level 90% of the time where we only have to add muriatic acid and occasionally cya to bring it to 50 ppm. Liquid chlorine does the sanitizing. Recently a mini drought where had to use city water approximately 2 inches in a 10,000 gallon pool. Question is any additional precautions needed?

The only one that grabs my attention, IF the testing is accurate, is the slightly elevated copper. All the others are above my pay grade. Maybe @JoyfulNoise has more to offer?

I wouldn’t put too much stock in the copper number. 200ppb is pretty much the lowest end of most simple copper tests and it’s well below an actionable limit set by the EPA. So since it’s at the bottom of the test, they likely don’t try to go any further (costs more to do so) since there’s nothing required of them to remediate it. You can treat that number the same as zero for all intents and purposes.
