My title is probably a lie and someone else will probably ask another sizing question. Sorry, but here's my problem:
I apparently have really hard water that's drying out my kid's skin. I tested it with a Hach5B and found I have 25gpg of hardness. Now I need help selecting a system and I was thinking the Fleck 5600sxt-80K capacity. There's 2 people + a baby, 1.75 bath, the sprinkler system is tied to the main water line (4 hose spigots and sprinkler line comes off of each one), I tested about 10gpm (both at a hose spigot and bathtub), I get water from the city, and the last bill showed we used about 164 gpd (sprinklers are broken and lawn hasn't been getting watered at all).
Is the Fleck 5600SXT-80K sufficient for my needs? What else do I need to test for? Should I buy TDS meter? Test for Iron? What else do I need to know before I make a purchase?
