Taylor Hardness Test Kit

Calcium hardness levels directly impact your pool's longevity. If levels are too low, the water becomes aggressive and can leach calcium from pool surfaces and equipment; if they are too high, you risk scaling and cloudy water.

Titration kits like this one are significantly more accurate than test strips because they rely on a color-change reaction rather than color matching. By counting the drops until the color shifts, you get a precise, quantitative measurement rather than an estimate.

This kit is designed to measure total hardness, which includes both calcium and magnesium. Because calcium and magnesium behave similarly in pool water chemistry, measuring total hardness is the standard and effective way to manage your water balance.

The kit includes 2-ounce reagent bottles, which provide enough solution for multiple tests throughout the season. To ensure accuracy, store the bottles in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

No, this is a complete kit. It includes the necessary titration reagents, a testing vial, and clear instructions, so you have everything you need to start testing your water immediately.
