New year resolution - understand my water profile. Below is the Ward Labs water report as of Jan 11, 2017. My next step is to learn to use Bru'n Water (supporter version). In the meantime, any and all opinions of the water appreciated!

Below are the results of my input. First I noticed that the Cation/Anion Difference is 0.15, higher than the 0.1 thresh for "good agreement," but within the 0.50 questionable thresh. I then looked at the some of the calculated results and compared to those on the water report. Differences are below:

Item Reported/Calculated
TDS 225/268 19% difference
Cations 3.8/3.85 1.3% difference
Anions 3.7/3.71 almost spot on
Total Hardness 147/146 almost spot on

Any idea why TDS is so far off? Anything to be concerned about?
