1. Do NOT test Calcium or Cyanuric acid daily -- there is no need to do so. With cyanuric acid, there is only enough reagent for 6 - 7 tests in the box, but CYA only changes as you replace water (lowers) or as you add cyanuric acid or use dichlor or trichlor.
2. You *can* use an OTO/phenol red kit for quick testing. I do, and so do many other experienced users.
3. Only test alkalinity frequently, if you have some reason to think it may be changing.
We want you to have, and to use, the K2006 . . . but not more than you need to do.
