  • How much EDTA is needed to make 700 TDS hard water soft?

    Water hardness is 700 TDS where i live. To make this hard water soft, how much EDTA is needed in a solution with pH~8 in ppm?

    Can’t answer that question but there are EDTA methods for determining hardness - perhaps execute with reverse intent.

    I have TDS meter. Isn’t that accurate to determine water hardness?
