I switched from the test strips to a test kit-the Poolmaster premier deluxe five way kit.
is it possible that the more expensive kit that our service person uses is that much better?
I ask because after having our hot tub for six months in our vacation rental, every time I come I get a high pH reading & low alkalinity reading ( similar to what our tap water is ), but he seems to think it's fine , based on his readings apparently. If my readings are off , I don't want to be blaming him for not doing his job properly with the chemicals. This is the 2nd person we've had in just 6 months and I do know he's certified-took the class.
