This is a Taylor Slide Comparator pH Test Kit with Cresol Red. The K-1011J Kit tests for pH using a slide comparator system and cresol red reagent.
Testing your swimming pool pH is one of the most important water chemical tests for water balance. When testing pH, what you are really measuring is how acidic or how alkaline the pool water is. If the water pH is too far one way or the other, you risk ending up with unbalanced swimming pool water.
A pool’s pH levels should be maintained between 7.2 and 7.6. To lower the pH, the most common dry product is Sodium Bisulfate. To raise the pH, Sodium Carbonate is normally used.
