AquaChek Salt Test Strip Titrators for Pools - Salt Water Pool Test Strips for Sodium Chloride - Quick and Accurate Results - Professional Water Quality Testing Kit (10 Strips)

Work great. Helps confirm salt reading on pool equipment.

We saved for years to repair the pool that came with our house. This year we finally got it going and with all new equipment we decided to switch to salt water. I bought an $80 salt tester and it worked fine I also bought a $170 dollar tester that tested for much more than just salt. After figuring that I could just check the ph with strips and salt with these strips and it was much cheap I sent all the devices back and stuck with this. It gives an accurate reading compared to $80 tester so all is good. Being a new pool owner and knowing nothing about a salt water pool I so far have not had any trouble with algae or anything else. The water is clean and clear so leave it alone is my motto. In the past couple of months I've checked the salt and ph levels three or four times and all was good. We'll see how it goes next season.

Correct order, good price.

Having read the mixed reviews, I decided to give these a shot anyhow. What pushed me over the edge was hearing that a few pool "pros" use them to double-check readings, and have said they are fairly accurate. My tube was marked: LOT A3102 Use By 03/2015 **UPDATE: At the end, I have updated my review to include the revised cross-reference chart mine came with** The Good: * Quick/easy to use * Useful accuracy * Great to quickly check cell readings Mixed Feelings: * They have apparently revised their product at least once, if not more, and the cross-reference chart figures are different. This may have led to readout issues for some. Buy it or not?: * Yes, I would reccomend this to someone who wants to do a quick check on their salt level/cell readouts, without having to rush to the pool store. Keep these on hand. Follow the included instructions precisely, and I would suggest using 2-3 strips at once to ensure accuracy. Why I gave 4/5 stars: * Biggest thing is the price, the strips end up being close to $1/ea. The Instructions: The instructions in mine basically stated to put 1" of water in a cup, and put the strip in. Wait until the yellow horizontal string at the top entirely turned black (3-4 minutes, no longer than 12), and to immediately take a reading at that point, using the "peak" of the white etched portion as the reference point. The Details: First thing to note, the instructions which came with the product have a different chart than what they have on their website. My instructions have a cross-reference from 1 to 10, whereas what's on the website shows 1-7. The chart on the back of the tube matches the chart in my instructions. The figures are also different. I wonder if this has caused some issue with accuracy? I used the instructions which came with the tube, and followed them precisely. For accuracy, I tested these against a known-good digital readout. I decided to use 3 strips at once from the tube to determine variance. I put 1" of water in a container, and placed all 3 strips in simultaneously. Between 0-2 minutes, you could see the indicator being etched away, and the yellow strip at the top slowly fading black. At precisely 3:02, the strip went black all the way across, for all 3 strips. I pulled them out, and took a reading. The included chart indicated that my salt ppm was 3790. My digital readout showed 3800. All 3 strips indicated the exact same reference point. Air temperature was 91*F, water temperature was 89*F. That's a decent accuracy for me, and there was no variance between the 3 strips. The Chart: (this one differs from what they have on their website, and matched my digital readouts) 1.8 - 370 2.0 - 430 2.2 - 480 2.4 - 540 2.6 - 600 2.8 - 670 3.0 - 740 3.2 - 810 3.4 - 890 3.6 - 970 3.8 - 1060 4.0 - 1150 4.2 - 1250 4.4 - 1360 4.6 - 1470 4.8 - 1590 5.0 - 1720 5.2 - 1860 5.4 - 2010 5.6 - 2170 5.8 - 2350 6.0 - 2540 6.2 - 2750 6.4 - 2970 6.6 - 3220 6.8 - 3490 7.0 - 3790 7.2 - 4120 7.4 - 4490 7.6 - 4910 7.8 - 5370 8.0 - 5900 8.2 - 6510 8.4 - 7210

These work as expected.

Tenía mi piscina llena de algas y este producto la recupero en pocas horas.

I tested my saltwater swimming pool with an electronic tester, and the salt level seemed quite high. I wasn’t sure if this was accurate so I ordered the test strips. The test strip gave me the same results so I was very satisfied with that and will continue to use them.

These quantab test strips lack the accuracy I need for my pool. I've been having a lot of variance in my salt water chlorinator cell (from 0-3600), so I wanted to get a more accurate reading before adding salt, this was not the answer. Presumably I used to much water in my first couple samples, and(or) the temperature was so low that it affected the reading, in either case the Taylor Silver Nitrate test shows 4200 ppm (after 4 tests within 1-2 drop of each other, the Aquacheck showed between 1000 and 2500. If you have a salt water chlorinator, it will be infinitely more accurate than these, so just buy the Taylor salt water kit if you want to ck the chlorinator.

Ho speso soldi per una sonda elettrica, interfacciabile con Tuya/smart life. Dopo 1 mese, con il caldo, dava già valori sballati. Con queste strisce è semplicissimo controllare la salinità in maniera veloce e precisa.

I don't have a drop test to check the accuracy but they read higher after I added salt and the reading makes sense. If anything, my chlorinator is a bit on the whacky side. I may amend this review after I get a chemistry test to check these against. Handy to use after a big rain.

Bei der Kontrolle in Spanien durfte ich feststellen, dass das gleiche Produkt dort 10 € günstiger war!!!😡

Fácil de usar, producto tal y como lo describe el proveedor, las instrucciones te lian, así que lo ideal es que cojas un vaso de agua, sumerjas la tira un cm y si llega a 3000 la sal es ideal. Sólo te comprueba la salinidad.

Work great and are really easy to read.
