Using test strips all levels show fine except water hardness which used to be fine also. The color in strip is like a light orange which is not even on the chart. Is that high or low hardness? And how to fix? Very novice so easy on me!
Welcome to TFP.
We do not endorse the use of test strips for the very reason you have asked the question. Test strips provide a guessimate and not specific data. If you are serious about taking care of a pool then please consider purchasing a proper test kit that will provide specific data. Test Kits Compared
Welcome to TFP! The link Herman provided illustrates some good comparisons between teh TF-100 and Taylor K-2006C test kits. Be sure to have one of those in your pool supply closet.
