Test method
Maintaining your pool or spa water doesn’t require a degree in chemistry. Test strips can, and do, provide accurate test results faster and easier than any other method. As with any test kit, there are several factors that can be controlled to ensure the validity of the test results.
Below are some guidelines for using test strips to obtain accurate water analysis results.
-
Follow the instructions that came with the kit.
Sounds simple, right? However, there have been many cases where a user has inadvertently used the instructions that came with another manufacturer’s strips or used the instructions from an older kit. Most inaccurate test results occur when individuals fail to follow the instructions or follow the wrong instructions! Test strips are continually improving and becoming more accurate, and you should never assume that the instructions on one container will apply to strips from another container. Additionally, not all manufacturers’ test strips are created equal, so it is essential to read and follow the instructions on each container.
-
Store test strips in a low humidity environment at room temperature. .
Test strips will be most effective for a long period of time if they are stored properly. Proper storage will give you confidence in your results until the product reaches its expiration date.
-
Keep lid tightly closed between uses. .
This will prevent moisture from getting into the vial of unused strips. It is important that moisture does not get into the test strips until you use them in your pool or spa.
-
Keep wet fingers out of the bottle .
The test strips won’t know the difference between the water on your fingers and the water in your pool or spa! So make sure the only water your test strips are reacting with is the water in the pool or spa you intend to measure.
-
Do not use expired test strips .
Most test strip containers will display an expiration date somewhere on the container. Always be aware of this date when using or purchasing test strips. Regardless of how the container was stored or handled, test strips have a set expiration date and should not be used after the product has expired. Using test strips after this date will likely result in inaccurate results, so replace any vials that have expired.
Test strips are among the easiest and quickest methods for testing water. By following the guidelines above, you can also ensure that your test strips provide an accurate method for measuring the properties of your pool or spa water, resulting in a clean and healthy pool or spa.
