I am a bigger fan of drop tests for water testing, but there is a lot we built into the Xpress Flex lab and the test strips. One of the biggest items you will appreciate is that the lab/program requires you enter the "lot code" of the test strips. This serves 2 main purposes: 1) You cannot use...

You do not need to get the full kit. You could just modify your current kit with the new instruction, 5096. You could buy that through TFTestKits or on our website, whichever is easier for you.

That's what I get for working late! We were challenged by a chemical supplier to modify our kits to read lower CYA levels. The changes we made allow reading down to 5 ppm of CYA. You do need to dilute to read higher levels. I am so sorry for the error!

HermanTX - you are very observant! I made a mistake - you could test down to 5 ppm using our kit. Ooops! My bad!

The damage at the BioLab trichlor plant in Louisiana will cause some tightening in the sanitizer market and increased pricing for your chlorine products. The TFP people are ahead of the curve using FAS DPD to more-accurately measure chlorine, and combined chlorine, levels. This helps you control...

You can trust the reagents you get from TFTestKits! They are great customers of Taylor and order regularly, so their reagents are fresh. You do need to make sure you use the pH indicator R-0004 for the larger volume sample size in Taylor's professional kit comparators and the R-0014 reagent for...

Please check out the updated instructions to the K-1720 CYA test from Taylor: Visual Determination, Cyanuric Acid, Turbidimetric, 0-500 ppm. These instructions allow you to test from 20-100 ppm and then down to 0-15 ppm. The update instructions are the 5096. We are very interested in you...

My friends at TFP are the best supporters of the FAS DPD test. Now, more than ever, people will want to know more precisely what their chlorine levels are. To me, FAS DPD beats color-matching, hands down. I do not do well reading pink colors. Besides making reading Free Chlorine more exact, FAS...

I am Chris Golden, the Director of Sales for Taylor Technologies. I've been testing and treating waters since 1989. I've been with Taylor since 2007, Please let me know if I could help in any way. Be well!

Hi Daniel, We offer a chlorine bleach test kit (K-1579) 1 drop = 10 or 100 ppm; 1 drop = 0.05 or 0.5%. Sounds like this may be what you're looking for...

Hi! Part R-0872 is the FAS-DPD titrating reagent for bromine. (FAS-DPD Titrating Reagent (for bromine)). Instructions for use with DPD powder are as follows: 1. Rinse and fill sample tube to desired mark with water to be tested. NOTE: For 1 drop = 0.5 ppm, use 25 mL sample. For 1...

As with all testing, lighting is critical to obtain the best possible match. We advise that when testing outdoors, have the Sun hit your back or shoulders. Never face the Sun – doing that will alter your test results as the UV light will interfere. The same holds true for the CYA test. Have your...

Your reagent expired over 1 1/2 years ago, please get a fresh R-0004.

what is the lot # and expiration date for the r-0004? Do you have the temperature of water sample, chlorine, TA, CH and CYA readings? Will get back to you with what's happening once we get that info.

The process of color-matching is an interesting phenomenon. The options can often be broken down to color-matching, electronic meters, and, finally, colorimeters. As you move from left to right on that list you, generally, improve results but also incur higher costs. Color-matching: Let’s...

@griffths - The SpeedStir seen in Leslie’s, as well as any retail store using our labs, is a commercial version and only included with our testing labs. @GinaLovesSummer The part 9265 is available from our distributors and has a list price of $46.25. You may find it for less from our distributors.

@JoeSelf :D awesome thank you! @GinaLovesSummer awe love to hear it, thank you! can't wait to hear what you think!

@borjis :thumleft:

@funinthesun awesome thank you!!!! @Philo oh wow, thanks for the suggestion - I'll bring it up to the team here and see what we can do about that for the future. You're welcome, thanks for being a customer :)

Hi Philo - call us for a replacement :)

Chris, the K-2006 and the TF100 have different pH comparators, so the phenol red reagents are different concentrations. The R-0004 (in the K-2006) and R-0014 (in the K-1000) phenol red reagents are not interchangeable. As far as the costs for the reagent, there are a lot of online options. Just...

Thank you for using Taylor test kits for your testing. The source of the problem may be the temperature of the water. High temperatures may be causing the conditions you are seeing. Please allow your sample to cool down to about 80oF before testing, and remember to collect your sample from about...

Taylor now sells test kits as individual units. Part number K-2006-6 was the old way of ordering 6 units of K-2006. It could be that Walmart took the number from InTheSwim that bought the 6 units from us directly or through a distributor. If you have any questions, we are here to help: 800-TEST KIT.

Rivermobster – Correct, Taylor does not sell chemicals nor profits from their use. The app is intended to help people make confident decisions on their chemistry adjustments. The app allows for wet chemistry tests (like using the K-2006) or test strips. The recommendation of treating water...

Thank you JoyfulNoise, we couldn’t have said it better ourselves!

When you see anything that concerns you with a Taylor test, like getting a lower CYA level than expected, please call our help desk (800-TEST KIT) to discuss your findings with a qualified representative. Many factors go into getting correct test results (sample size, testing technique, reagent...

We offer the M-2000 Colorimeter which can be found here - http://www.taylortechnologies.com/products_kitinfo.asp?&MarketID=-1&KitID=2599 however, it may not be cost effective. The CYA Reagent Pack can be purchased with this to take the human error out of the CYA test. If you’re looking for...

We appreciate your comments regarding the R-7065 CYA Standard and the results you obtained. Standard solutions are designed to read a specific value. In your case, the R-7065 is designed to read 50 ppm CYA. Because the CYA test, a turbidimetric test, is in itself a subjective test, you can get...
