Product information

Test kit for measuring pH, chlorine and alkalinity

The 3-in-1 test strip kit for swimming pools It is used to measure the chlorine, pH and alkalinity levels in water.

Measuring these three parameters is essential for keeping the pool water in perfect condition. When the pH, chlorine or alkalinity levels fall outside the recommended ranges, they can be harmful to swimmers and to the various components of the pool system.

Quick and easy to use – 3-in-1 swimming pool test kit

It’s very easy to use:

  1. Collect a water sample from as deep a point as possible.
  2. Insert a strip into the sample.
  3. Please wait a few seconds for the results to appear.
  4. Compare the colours on the strip with the colour chart on the back of the pack.

This comparison provides a quick overview of the water’s pH, chlorine and alkalinity levels.

Recommended values

The ideal values are between:

  • Chlorine: between 0.6 and 1.5.
  • pH: between 7.4 and 7.6.
  • Alkalinity: between 125 and 150 ppm.

Keeping these parameters within the recommended levels helps to maintain the water’s balance and ensure it remains in good condition.

The importance of the chlorine level

Excessive chlorine levels in the water can cause poisoning and irritation to the skin and eyes.

Conversely, a chlorine level below the recommended level can cause the pool water to turn green, due to the proliferation of bacteria and algae colonies.

The importance of pH levels – 3-in-1 swimming pool test kit

A high pH is an alkaline pH. It can cause the water to become cloudy and spoil, as well as reducing the effectiveness of chlorine by more than 50 %.

A low pH is an acidic pH and can corrode pool components, regardless of the material they are made from.

The importance of alkalinity

High alkalinity can cause:

  • Imbalances in the pH level.
  • Difficulty in controlling it.
  • Turbidity in the water.

Low alkalinity can lead to:

  • Imbalances in the pH level.
  • Difficulty in controlling it.
  • Corrosion.
  • Eye irritation.
  • Appearance of green water.

Regular monitoring of alkalinity helps to keep the pH stable and ensure the pool water is properly maintained.
