DESCRIPTION

With a simple dip test you can know your pool or spas total water balance in only 15 seconds, without the need for complex chemical reactions, or to take a bottle into a pushy pool shop. With these strips you will easily see your pool or spas FREE CHLORINE, pH, CYANURIC ACID and TOTAL ALKALINITY like a pro.

CYANURIC ACID

This is the amount of Stabiliser or "Sun Screen" present in your Pool or Spa. Having the proper level slows down the rate that sunlight breaks down FREE CHLORINE in your pool or Spa, too Low and your FREE CHLORINE will dissipate quickly, meaning you use more and it costs more, too much and the FREE CHLORINE will be "caught up" in the CYANURIC ACID and can't sanitise properly.

FREE CHLORINE

This is your pool or Spas primary sanitizer and must be maintained between 1-3 ppm. In this range your FREE CHLORINE will “eat up” contaminates, keeping your water clean and safe.

PH

This is the measure of your Pool or Spas Acidity or Alkalinity and should be kept between 7.2 and 7.8 for comfort, and to ensure that your Chlorine sanitizes effectively. 

TOTAL ALKALINITY

Total Alkalinity is a measure of the substances in your Pool or Spa that resists changes in your pools pH. Keeping these levels correct prevent sudden changes to your pools pH, and reduces the chance of scale build up on the pool surfaces.
