Hi all, I'm putting together some info on water treatment and I was hoping to find a hard water profile to use as a sample case. Do any of you have a recent water profile for the Leixlip area (or surrounding regions) that you'd be willing to share? It doesn't matter if it's just a snapshot in time. I'd rather have an accurate snapshot than one that averages the readings out over time. Your help would be appreciated! Peter
Here is one from the old ICB site from

Thanks Oblivious! That report won't work though. It gives ranges not specific readings :-X
Yeah it was a bit board, the generic print from the coco
mmmh Porterhouse are in the area, if they use the sample supple they might share their report
Good idea!
I had my tap water tested in England
