Check / calibrate your new meter -n- pray it's wrong . Or you need to buy a Reverse Osmosis System .

Didn't it come w/ any instructions ?
Most need 4.0 - 7.0 calibration soloution . Most are adj. using a lil tiny eyeglass screwdriver . What kind is it ? Got a pic. ?

Are you in the city or counrty , City water , Well water ?
I got a 8 oz. bottle of each 4.0 - 7.0 for like 12.00 online .
If your in the city - Usually once a yr in your junk mail - by law they have to give you a breakdown of everything your water contains on average . Total ppm and percentages of each element / compund in the sample . Call your Dept. of public works , or city hall= it should be on public record .
