Mastering Pool Water Testing @ Home

  • The results from pool water testing using strips typically fall within the safe range, ensuring the chlorine and total chlorine levels are suitable for safe swimming. However, it's important to monitor other factors as well, such as the pH level
  • Introduction

    With the restrictions due to Covid-19, it’s challenging to have pool water tested at a store. But worry not! You can easily ensure the safety of your pool water at home using test strips.

    Testing with Test Strips

    Open the standard pack of test strips and dip it in the pool water for 3-4 seconds. Swish it around and pull it out to get the results. It’s simple yet effective.

    Understanding the Results

    Most pool water test results are within range, but it’s crucial to pay attention to chlorine and total chlorine levels. If the pH level seems high, consider adding pH down to balance it.

    Proper Addition of Stabilizer

    Adding stabilizer directly into the skimmer basket is the correct method because it dissolves slowly and prevents it from sitting on the pool liner, ensuring cleanliness.

    Adding Chemicals Effectively

    When adding chemicals, do it in front of a jet to disperse them effectively. This also helps in rushing the chemicals once added, ensuring uniform distribution in the pool.
