I may be dead wrong here, but in my experience, well water has extremely low hardness in my area and often gives a very purple reading on a fresh fill.

Typical well water readings here:
TDS - 600 - 1800
sanitizer - 0
TA - 400- 1200
CH- 0-70

pH - 8.0+

Before you try to compensate for this unknown reading, I also suggest you get it tested.

I was thinking Purple was showing a high reading but I guess it could be showing a low reading.





Thanks Stuart. The one in South Easton isn't far at all.
