I own this kit and the ez touch pool photometer. I use the taylor for Chlorine, PH, Alkalinity. For the Ez photometer. I use that to test for phosphates, CYA, Calcium hardness,.
Why did you not trust the Taylor Kit when it's reading for CYA was 30-40? I have the same Test Kit. I almost always get a CYA reading of 60. But when I go to stores to Test, the Reading is about 113. I would think that the Taylor test was accurate. What are your thoughts? Thanks. Great Video! One other thing, you never mentioned what you thought Alkalinity & Calcium Hardness should be. I have a Gunite Pool. Thanks again.
I have a kit with a powder yellow not a liquid first so I’m confused. Also the water turns pink first with the powder not with the orange/yellow liquid. ?????
For the first test of chlorine, you use the small comparator rather than the large as it states in the directions. You didn't know how much water was in there, so how could you do accurate math?
Dave Van Meter He found the pool to have 60 PPM of alkalinity; that’s where he left off. Now you know you need to raise your alkalinity by approximately 40 PPM to get in your ideal range of 80-100 PPM. Taylor has a chart to tell you how to do that.

Reagent 1 :5drops mix
Reagent 2: 5drops mix. Ideal levels are 2.0 to 3.0
Right side PH : 5 drops PH ideal levels are 7.4 to 7.6
Thank you so much! This was much easier than reading their instructions!
Great video. This video is for the Taylor Kit. If you have to adjust read the label on the chemical needed.

Great vid, thanks!

This helped so much thank you
+Bri Andoll I’m glad to have provided some help.
How often do you do this test?
Weekly

You have a different test kit (better). Read the directions under the lid of the test kit box. Also, read the little booklet lots of information.

Where could i buy the kit? Price?
Thanks
You never tested Cyanuric acid what the hell are you talking about...
You're not explaining how to read the treat kit.
Thanks!
Hi, any one can help me if how to lower the bromine of the pool?
It will lower over time. Just don't add any more and in the next couple days it will lower
I need something I can just put in the water, link it to my phone and have it send me reports on the water chemistry smh..
Taylor is not accurate imo. Maybe it's the dye they use who knows.
The CYA was in the proper range and yet the Taylor kit couldn’t detect any?!? That’s worthless
Yea, that’s why we use electronic test kits now. They were not around when we shot this video.
Thanks for watching.
TA test and explanation made no sense what so ever
