Troubleshooting RO and tap water mixing calculations, water hardness calculator, and GH/KH parameter settings
Inaccurate calculations when mixing RO and tap water
Problem: Final parameters don't match calculated ones
Solution:
- Check that tap water parameters are up to date
- Ensure quality of RO water (TDS < 10)
- Account for seasonal changes in tap water composition
- Check test with calibration solution
"Testing water" option shows incorrect results
Reason: Current or target parameters entered incorrectly
Solution:
- Ensure accuracy of current GH/KH measurements
- Check that target values are realistic
- Use calibrated tests for initial measurements
Calculation doesn't work for non-standard water preparation schemes
Problem: System cannot process complex water source combinations
Solution:
- Use "Other" mode for complex schemes
- Break the task into simpler stages
- Calculate each mixture component step by step
