ATO systems work OK for kalk. There can be problems if evaporation rates change (like seasonally). You just have to test for alk and Ca.

Yes, your values are fine. If you want to raise alk and Ca, the easiest way to do that is with baking soda and CaCl respectively. Or if you are adding more kalk than the tank is consuming, those values will rise.
Ah you're right. My math is wrong

I'd probably go with ATO and Kalk since the ATO would benefit me either way without the Kalk or with Kalk.
