Imo you missed the informative bits in the water analysis. Calcium, sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, sulfate, magnesium. They should all be in that analysis. cn

Calcium, sodium, magnesium and bicarbonate are missing, and these are usually the headliners in a water report. I'm puzzled.
What this means is,that, without those numbers, I can't comment on whether or not water quality was a factor. Sorry. cn
