    <span style=”-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);”> I’m just curious if my tap water is usable. obviously I’d leave it out so the chlorine evaporates, but other than that?</span>

    Any idea how much sodium and bicarbonates are in the water?

    I do not, my test kit didn’t tast for that. I was looking into testers they are a little out of my price range.

    Sorry for the delayed response. So looks like it’s an average of about 12ppm of sodium. You said your overall PPM is 100-200, so if it’s 100 then 12% of that is sodium. If 200 then 6% of that is sodium.

    I’m no expert when it comes to water testing so I’d like to refer you to the Soil Doctor, Bryant Mason. He’s be able to give you much more insight than I can. Here’s his website: https://www.soildoctorconsulting.com/
