Something does not add up. The pH looks to be much lower than 6.8, that is very suspect. If the TA test turned pink with R0008, the TA is zero. Your fill water is nearly vinegar.

They are confusing alkaline water with the alkalinity we care about in pools, which is bicarbonate alkalinity.
If those tests are correct, that water is not fit to drink or use as a potable water.
I'm just saying that's what I test. Been drinking this well water for 25 years. Taste great. Like bottled water. Pool been going strong for 14 years with using same water

There is an issue with the testing. Check the reagent you are using for the pH test.
