This looks like all the useful info. It is hard to use this without the specific calcium, magnesium and bicarbonate amounts unfortunately. It would be to your benefit to get a report from Ward Lab for your water.
 
+1 on Ward Labs. I got my report pretty quick and you can't beat the $16.50 cost. Even my state's EPA did not believe me when I told her I could get all that info for less than $20. They wanted more than $50 and it would have taken several tests (more paperwork, etc.)
