Instructions for Use

- Remove the test strip from the water and wait for 60 seconds.
- Compare the color of each pad on the test strip to the color chart provided on the product packaging. This will give you the levels of the seven different chemicals in your pool or spa water.
- Adjust your pool or spa chemicals as needed based on the test results.
Troubleshooting Tips
- If the colors on the test strip do not match any colors on the color chart, make sure you are using the strip within the recommended 60-second window after dipping it in the water sample.
- If you are having difficulty reading the colors, try viewing the test strip under natural daylight or a bright light source.
- Ensure the test strips are stored in a cool, dry place and the container is tightly sealed to prevent exposure to moisture or humidity, which can affect the accuracy of the test strips.
- If the test strips are consistently providing inaccurate results, consider purchasing a new container of test strips, as they may have expired or been compromised.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can these test strips be used for both pools and hot tubs?
- Yes, these test strips are designed to work with both pools and hot tubs, including above ground and inground pools, as well as inflatable spas.
- How often should I test my pool or spa water?
- It is recommended to test your pool or spa water at least once a week to ensure proper chemical balance. However, you may choose to test more frequently if you have a high bather load or after heavy rain or other environmental factors that could affect water chemistry.
- Do these test strips have an expiration date?
- While there is no specific expiration date for the test strips, they can lose accuracy over time, especially if not stored properly. It is recommended to replace your test strips every 1-2 years or if you suspect they are providing inaccurate results.
- Why do the test strips sometimes show a small amount of Bromine even though I am using Chlorine?
- While the test strips are designed to be accurate, there may be some slight variations in the readings. If you are confident that you are using Chlorine and not Bromine, you can disregard the small Bromine reading and focus on the other chemical levels.
