I have heard of Taylor test kits before, and was planning on buying one for chlorine, PH, stabilizer, etc. Do you know of one that also includes a salt test?
You should get a TF-100 test kit which will give you *accurate* readings for FC, CC, pH, TA, CH, CYA. Then for the salt aspect you need the separate K-1766 Salt test kit.
Bot are available thru www.tftestkits.net
There are *no* better testers are the market than those two. Both use Taylor reagents (the standard reagent manufacturer for pool kits).

This salt test kit (k1766) is extremely accurate. Get it.
Get one of the test kits recommended here. You will save the money for the kit a hundred times over.

I emailed Taylor Technologies and told them what I was needing. A test kit that would work best for me to keep my salt pool in optimal condition. The representative emailed back, and recommended the K-2005. It seems to have everything I need. Does anyone know about this kit?

To follow TFP methods you need either a TF-100 or K2006c and a K1766 (salt test kit).
The TF-100 has more of the reagents we use and is a better value - over the K2006c. Both kits use Taylor reagents.

What is the advantage of having 2 test kits, rather than the one K-2005?

K-2005 is lacking the FAS/DPD chlorine test or the salt test. The K-2005 is not adequate for TFPC Methods.

The K2005 doesn’t have the better more precise chlorine test. The K2006C has “ commercial” sized 2 oz reagents instead of the .75 oz in the K2006. I have seen a K2006 with salt included as well.

I have the Taylor K2006 and the K1766. I wish I had read more and ordered the K2006C with the larger bottles. The K2006 with salt test wasn’t available at that time.

This is what the manufacture is telling me the K-2005-SALT test kit will measure. Does't this include everything that I need?
Complete™ kit for Chlorine/Bromine, pH, Alkalinity, Hardness, CYA, Salt (DPD) (.75 oz bottles)

Do you know the difference between K-2005-SALT, K2006, and the K2006C?

No, it lacks the FAS/DPD Chlorine test. The K2006 includes a chlorine test, the FAS-DPD that has a color change to indicate chlorine level rather than the color matching test. The FAS-DPD has a very high test range so it can be used when higher Cl levels are needed such as with the SLAM Process. And iot lets you test for CCs.
You can buy the FAS/DPD CL test separately ...

K-2006 has the FAS/DPD Chlorine test. K-2006C has larger quantities of reagents. See Test Kits Compared
Can i just whine that its a waste of time shopping around when we've told you the kit that you need? And the places that you can buy it?
The 2006 kit contains a chlorine tester that goes up to 50ppm and provides both FC and CC, and you end with an exact number value..the 2005 kit does not have that, and the only way to test that kit for chlorine (only TF, not FC/CC) is via color matching and is subjective.

YippeeSkippy, can I just whine back at you. It is a waste of my time to read comments from rude people, so please do not ever reply back to me again.
