Test Kit Recommendation - Less Tests Than TF-100

[Blue Horse]

My TF-100 has gone expired last year, with a lot chemicals left since I don't test that often.

What will be a good test kit to purchase, with similar test items but lesser quantity?

Thanks,
Julius

I think once you shop around you will find the TF-100 is the best value even with wasted reagent. You will pay more for less with other tests kits. Price out the Taylor K-2006 or 2006C.

You can order a TF-100 refill set from tftestkits.net - no need to order a complete test kit every year.
And try to test more frequently and consistently.

I don't necessarily use all the reagents yearly, but order a refill pretty much each spring. Cheap insurance to keep my pool trouble free.

Just get the refills you need. TFtestkits sells them, so does Leslies, so does Amazon. You don't need new hardware or another case, just drops. They're all Taylor reagents. So just match the numbering.

OK, I will order a complete set of refill from TFtestkits then, because my reagents actually expired 3.5 years ago (embarrassed...)

Hey no worries my TF-100 refills just arrived last night and I too waited over two years.
Question for anyone: how do you keep your TF-100 hardware clean now going on a few seasons? Safe to use soap and water to rinse them out once in awhile? Or just rinse with tap?
Thanks,
Jake

Use bleach on the vials. Should clean the up.
