I got the first two reports off my water treatment website, the second one I got when I contacted them and was wondering if I should ask for a more in depth report

So you will need the following:

Ca = 33.7 mg/l
Mg= 11 mg/l
Na = ?
Bicarb (HCO3) = ?
Carbonate (CO3) = ?
SO4 = ? --- they may only have SO4-S which can be converted
Cl = ?
NO3 = 4.8 mg/l --- nitrate may be provided as NO3-N and should be converted

Total Alkalinity= 118 mg/l as CACO3
Hardness = 151 mg/l

Make sense? You are missing some key cations and anions.
 
Yea I just downloaded bru'n water so was going to just write down everything I have blank and see if they can help with what I need. thanks for the help I just found the bru'n water a few mins ago, or I wouldn't of even had to ask lol oh well. Thanks again
 
Or do they have a secondary report I could ask for that is more in depth or would just asking for the specifics that I need be easier

Just call or email and ask for the specific values you need. They can do the conversions if need be and it'll be easier for them and probably more reliable.
I just called my local treatment plant and the engineer there was very helpful and gave me the latest info, yearly averages, highs and lows.
 
Looks like I will have to send out they don't test for everything I attached what they sent me back, no carbonate or bicarbonate no potassium no fluoride. Any one tell me the best way to test my water with out much cash involved? the cheaper the better to keep the wife happy
