To calculate this number you will need to know the system capacity, (for example, a 48k system has a 48,000 grain capacity) and the hardness of the water in grains per gallon (GPG). If your test shows hardness as parts per million (ppm) or milligrams per liter (mg/l) simply divide by 17.1 to get grains per gallon.
