So after a previous thread I posted about RODI Units, I wanted to test the Chlorine in my water and found these old Tetra 6in1 Test Strips that I got a month or two ago off someone who had them left over with other stuff.
Testing from RO Reservoir (Brute can)
My results seem...strange?
-Nitrate + Nitrite are normal
-Total Hardness GH is like 75-150 (which I'm hearing for RO water should be 0? What does this result mean then?)
-Chlorine looks either 0 or at most 0.5 (surprising...also, this does NOT measure Chloramines right? How do I measure that?)
-ALK is like 80-120 (is that good or bad?)
-pH is towards the bottom like 6.2
(See below I'll attach pics, hard to get a good pic and a reference I found online cause the reference on my bottle was missing lol)
