Ok. On my Taylor K2006 test kit, my results were as follows:
FC .5ppm
Br 1ppm
TC .5ppm
ph 7.2
TA-5 drops til red was 5, so that is 50 ppm's if i multiply 5x10.
My Dad gave me this kit and I do not have a little clear bottle to complete the CYA test. Does the sample usually change colors? The video from Taylor looked cloudy but clear. If anyone has suggestions on another way to perform this test please let me know tips. If not, I will purchase a bottle this weekend. I am missing the instruction manual to my kit along with that little bottle. My kit does not have the cylindar that you fill up with sample water attached. It is seperate. When getting my samples, I filled the pool water up to the 25ml mark on all tests. The cl and br looked light pink in the cylindar, but when i poured it into the actual chart to compare next to the colors, it looked clear. Again, in the cylindar, it was at the .5 color level when placed next to the chart.
I did not use the test strips this time since they apparently give false readings. Based on this, I am thinking my Br , TC and FC levels are low. When I subracted the TC .5 from the FC .5 it equals 0. Please let me know what needs to be done next. Thanks for your help.
