How to Create a Kh+ Remineralizer to Increase Carbonate Hardness?

This guide will show how to create a Kh+ remineralizer to regulate only the carbonate hardness indicator.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Open the Remineralizers Section

  1. In the Samomes main menu, select the "Remineralizers" section

  1. In the "Reagents" field, select from the dropdown list:
    • Potassium carbonate - K2CO3

Important: Water (H2O) is not selected automatically, since most remineralizers are made as dry powder.

Step 3: Enter Desired Kh Indicator

  1. In the Kh field, enter the value "1".

  1. The system will automatically calculate the required mass of potassium carbonate: ~0.25 g

Thus, when adding 0.25g of potassium carbonate to 10 L of water, carbonate hardness will increase by 1.

Step 4: Save the Remineralizer

  1. Enter a name, for example: "Kh+".
  2. Add a description: "Remineralizer for increasing carbonate hardness".
  3. Click "SAVE".

Practical Recommendations

  • Mixing: In home conditions it's difficult to evenly mix powders, so separate dosing is often used
  • Storage: Store dry reagents in airtight containers
  • Control: Periodically check water TDS to control dosing correctness
