This is last years water report...I see lots of interesting items on here, however, the Turbidity/Alkalinity levels are confusing me. It really doesn't say what ppm the calcium carbonate or lime levels are just what %total turbidty is of the total content of the water. Besides I'm not totally sure how to read that crap. My water comes from the Overholser reservoir, in one row it says monthly lowest 91.9% and the row below it says Highest single reading 0.83? I think the city hires people just to make these terrible charts to confuse people.
In any case it looks like I have pretty hard water, but don't really know to what extent. Any help with this chart would help. Also the NTU thing is throwing me off the chart says to the right its a measure of calcium carbonate/lime but how is that? NTUs just are measure of stuff in the water that makes it hazy..that means anything which is scary.
