It was designed for chlorine testing in swimming pool and spa water. When replacing an older test kit or individual testing components, confirm that the replacement testing method and reagents are designed to work together.

Testing & Storage Guidance
  • Collect the water sample according to the applicable testing instructions.
  • Use only compatible testing reagents and components.
  • Follow the specified sample volume and reagent quantities for the testing method being used.
  • Compare test results according to the applicable kit instructions.
  • Keep testing chemicals properly sealed when not in use.
  • Store reagents in accordance with their manufacturer storage instructions and replace expired or compromised reagents.
