    If your chlorine is really high, you may be bleaching out the strip. Order the Taylor K-2006 but in the meantime, go and pick up a cheap OTO kit (the one with the red and yellow drops) someplace. Test with that and report back. Do this ASAP because if your pH is truly low, it is critical to raise it. Low pH can damage equipment and liners. Also, when you report back, tell us more specifics about type and size of pool you have.
