So, I test my RODI for nitrates, phosphates, copper, iron, and TDS ever so often.... I've been noticing my DKH creeping up recently, so I tested my RODI...

16 dkh.

My source water... is 16 dkh.

I have no idea how long it's been like that.

This is why we cant have nice things

Straight from the Rockford Water department...

What Is the Hardness of My Water?

In Rockford, the water is very hard. When you purchase a water softener, it is helpful to know what the hardness levels are in your neighborhood.
If you live west of the Rock River, the hardness is 18 – 20 grains per gallon.
If you live east of the Rock River, and West of Fairview Blvd, the hardness is 21-25 grains per gallon.
If you live east of Fairview Blvd. to the City limits, the hardness is 17-19 grains per gallon.

I'm in the 18-20 grains category...

18 grains is 308.477074019 PPM.

or 17.246 DKH.

That is crazy.
My water's hardness is around 2 dKH and the TDS is usually 35.

EDIT: Just for fun, though, the PO4 is 2ppm ;Woot
