Hi All -
I have been reading the site for a while, and certainly understand how important proper testing can be. I am about 1/2 way through my in-ground, gunite, SWG build and want to make sure I get off to a good start. My PB provided a basic Pentair 4-way (Amazon.com : Pentair R151186 78HR All in One 4 Way pH and Chlorine Test Kit : Swimming Pool Liquid Test Kits : Garden & Outdoor). It certainly appears this is going to be insufficient to get the proper information on my water. My question is whether there is an ancillary test I can buy to supplement what the Pentair kit offers, of do I just need to pull the trigger on the TF-100? Also, regardless of the answer to that question, will I need any additional test related to salt, since my pool with use a SWG for sanitation? I do not often see folks talking about salt testing on the forum, but the TFT site offers a separate salt test and an add-on. Any help and thoughts would be appreciated!
Thanks!
