input on kalkwasser

If your adding via ato your required additions are 100% dependant on evaporation rates.

2 tsp per gallon is the point of saturation. If additions are made via ato you must determine your systems requirments versus your rate of evaporation.

My sytem requires 1/2 tsp per gallon during warmer months, and I must increase the amount needed as evaporation declines during the colder months.

Dosing through ato however may not be a perfect fit for your needs based upon the fluctuations you see with evaporation rates. If you are not constantly making adjustment to compensate then your levels will rise and fall sorta defeating the purpose.

If your wanting to set it up on scheduled additions your probably better off with two part.
Additons of saturated kalk can be used via this method but obviously additions must be kept on par with ph levels. PH will be the determining factor on wether you can even dose, the strength of the dose and how often you will need to dose to meet your tanks needs and wether or not you are able to meet that need while keeping ph in check, and or if your tanks rewuirments are greater then the limitation of Kalks saturation point. Depending on the needs of your system and the amount of additions you can also start to compete with your top off.

^ I think anyways lol. my stored information quickly degrades. Lol. I suggest you research further until it all makes sense to you before you decide to do anything.
