    Yeah, that is some pretty high chlorine! A pH test is inaccurate when chlorine is that high. With a K-2006, it should be accurate when the chlorine drops below 15ppm. Retest it when your chlorine drops.

    FYI for anybody else reading this thread, pH is not accurate when chlorine is above 5ppm for other kits.

    We haven't added any chlorine at all since Tuesday and every test we did (before we got the 2006 kit today) showed the level never lightened up at all. It's stayed consistently the same color since then. Anything we can do to drop chlorine levels quickly?
