    You're welcome! If you're going to get a proper test kit in the US, get the Taylor K-2006 or K-2006C, or the Leslie's FAS-DPD Chlorine Service Test Kit. But you'll have to get them online and have them sent to a US location. Stores don't sell them that I know of. There's some issue with getting these kits north of the border, but I'm not sure what it is.

    The problem with such pool store numbers is a lot of them test with...strips and then plug the results in the computer.

    Neither Leslie's nor pinch a penny (the big pool store chains down here) carry the K-2006 kits. Pinch a penny carries most of the chems individually but not the R-0871 needed for FAS-DPD testing. I just ordered a few things from "Amato Industries" via amazon.com and it took four days to get here with standard shipping. You shouldn't have a problem getting an order to your destination with a two week window.

    The only way to get the K-2006/2006C is online. Leslies CAN get the R-0871 and FAS-DPD powder on order. The Leslies FAS-DPD Chlorine Service Test Kit is only available on their web site. It IS the K-2006, re-badged and stuck into a Leslies box, with all Taylor re-agents.
