New Here...Have Green Clear Water

[CarlD]

OK,
It's easy to convert your K-2005 to a K-2006--but you have hunt up the K-1515-A or -C which is the FAS-DPD Chlorine test as a stand-alone single-test kit. Using that, instead of the DPD chlorine test in the K-2005, you'll have the same tests as the K-2006. The K-1515-A is about $26 from Taylor itself and the -C (which has more reagents) is quite a bit more--but is available at Amatoind.com for about $40. Considering the K-2006 is only about $48 from Amato Ind., it doesn't seem like much of a bargain.

Unfortunately, with the DPD kit, I don't believe you can dilute the sample the way you can with the OTO test to double, triple or quadruple the range of the scale on the test cell.

I have my K1515 kit coming tomorrow to add to my K 2005.

But meanwhile, I did do the "shot glass method", and I am above 20 ppm for cl. And my pool is getting better. Will add more bleach tonight and then test, then test in the morning to see if I lost any.

I also, brushed the sides really well this morning.

I feel like there is a sparkling pool at the end of this tunnel.

Thank you all for your help!

You're on the right track! Sparkling pool just around the corner!

Just a quick update...

My pool has NEVER looked so nice. Thank you so much for all your advice. My kids think that I am an absolute genius.

I have been telling everyone I know about the BBB method. Keep up the great work!

Happy swimming!
