What ranges and optimum levels does it show for Free Chlorine, Total Chlorine, Bromine, Total Hardness, Total Alkalinity, pH and Cyanuric Acid?

Total Hardness 0-1000 ppm (250-500 OK), Total Chlorine 0-10 ppm (1-5 OK 5 Ideal), Total Bromine 0-20 ppm (2-10 OK 5 Ideal), Free Chlorine 0-20 ppm (1-3 Pool OK, 3-5 Spa OK), pH 6.2-8.4 (7.2-7.8 OK), Total Alkalinity 0-240 ppm (80-120 OK), Cyanuric Acid 0-300 ppm (30-100 OK 30-50 Ideal)

The TDS meter checks for dissolved ionic solids. Charge matter little. Positive or negative pH would give similar results. ie a pH of 9 would probably yield a similar TDS value as a pH of 5.

Yes you should add cyanuric acid. Otherwise your chlorine will be depleted. But your salt & cyanuric acid do not evaporate so once you get the levels right, they should be maintenance free.

low ph range from 6.0 to 7.6 and the high ph is from 7.4 to 8.8. most ideal range is 6.8 to 7.8, i think. that is usually the range for most fish. Hope this helps you. :)

I don't know the ph, and the product is better than other brand of victamin c, recommded to try on sensitive skin and problem skin, have a try, I am still continues using these range for more than 2 years. Good to try��

I'm not sure, it tests chlorine, ph, and alkalinity. If that's all you need for a salt pool, the yes.

100% pure magnesium chloride brine. It's a solution of magnesium chloride in pure water mined from deep within the earth at the site of the Zechstein Seabed in the Netherlands. The 64 fl. oz. bottle is very cost effective, as compared to other brands.Marian Adams, R.N., Alternative Health Consultant

The kit does NOT include testing materials for CYA. It's been my experience that unless you are doing a lot of water replacement in your pool (due to a leak, heavy usage, or maybe really significant evaporation) the CYA won't change that much over time. Once you get it to the level you want, then it will tend to stay there, at least for awhile. Trichlor tabs do add CYA to your pool and if you use them then your CYA level will creep up over time, eventually to a level that negates the chlorine effectiveness. Most pool shops will test (for free....) your CYA level if you take in a sample. There are inexpensive strips you can buy that include, as one of their tests, CYA ("Stabilizer"). For your average pool owner that doesn't want to get too deep into self testing, using the pool store's service along with the strips is probably good enough to keep track of your CYA levels. Or, you can invest in a better testing kit, like the Taylor K-2006 and have everything you need to test for chlorine, pH, Total Alkalinity, CYA, calcium, etc. A worthwhile expenditure in my opinion. Amazon has a good price on that kit.

Yes, they have ranges given for optimum spa chemical levels as well as pool, and say they do bromine as well as chlorine, although I've never tried to use with bromine.

You might try a TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) meter. It isn't a perfect reading of colloidal particles, but, it may give you better idea.

Great name! Thanks for the question. The ph range is from 6.0-10(in the red) - end padThis test kit is nice and easy, tests for Bacteria, lead, pesticide, nitrates and PH. I have been testing evrey 2-3 months since I am in PA along the fracking belt and recently my township has converted to Philadelphia public water, no more well water. All the best!

Each card has four test areas for Ph, Clorine etc. Each test area changes color and on the bottle there are 6 omparison colors for each of the four. The colors indicate OK, high, low very low. The bottle does not specifically advise the quantity of chemicals to add since that will depend upon the size of the pool. They are cheap enough that you can add less than normal and test again after the pump has circulated for a couple of hours. My local pool company indicated to me that the strips are quite accurate.

Jessica, (LOVE YOUR NAME), I was reading more about your question and found this :: The ionizer removes some but not all of the acid-forming minerals from the alkaline water, depending upon the pH level you select. For example, at a pH of 9.0 about a third of the harmful added fluorides are removed. The same applies to the other acid-forming minerals.

It tests pH up to 8.8, Ammonia up to 8.0 ppm, Nitrite up to 5.0 ppm, and Nitrate up to 160ppm. Those are the only things you can test with this kit.

I don't know. I only used it to remove chlorine. You would have to ask the manufacturer.

Not exactly sure what your question is but there is a total of 5 tests. Ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, low ph, and high ph. Everything is in the box that you need. Great product easy to use.

the calibrated range of the ph.7 and ph4.0 buffers is .5 degrees accrurate...I have used this equipment for years and find it to be great...have not used the 10.1 buffer solution in food processes...but will tell you this equipment is very reliable...
