Usage
These test strips are intended for residential and commercial swimming pools, hot tubs, and spa environments where maintaining proper water balance is essential for swimmer comfort, equipment longevity, and chemical efficiency. To use, simply dip a strip into the pool water for the recommended time, remove it, and insert it into the TruTest digital reader. The reader instantly displays the free‑chlorine level, pH, and alkalinity, allowing you to make informed adjustments to chemicals such as chlorine, pH increaser, or alkalinity balancer. The strips are also suitable for seasonal pool opening and closing, as well as routine weekly maintenance checks. Because the strips are designed for the TruTest reader only, they eliminate guesswork and reduce the chance of human error that can occur with visual comparison charts.

FAQ
How often should I test my pool water with these strips?
For optimal water quality, it is recommended to test at least twice a week during regular swimming season. If you are adjusting chemicals or after heavy pool usage, testing daily can help you maintain balanced water and prevent issues such as algae growth or equipment corrosion.
Can I use these strips with any other testing device?
No. The AquaChek TruTest Test Strips are formulated specifically for the TruTest digital reader. Using them with other devices may result in inaccurate readings because the color development and calibration are matched to the TruTest system.
What should I do if a strip shows an unexpected result?
First, ensure the strip was fully immersed for the correct amount of time and that the water sample was taken from a well‑circulated area of the pool. Rinse the strip with fresh water before retesting. If the result still seems off, compare it with a second strip from the same bottle. Persistent discrepancies may indicate a need to calibrate the digital reader or replace the strip bottle.
Are these strips safe for use around children?
Yes. The strips contain no hazardous chemicals and are packaged in a child‑resistant bottle. However, as with any pool chemical product, keep the bottle out of reach of children and follow the usage instructions to avoid accidental ingestion.
Do the strips expire?
While the strips are designed for a long shelf life, they do have an expiration date printed on the packaging. For best accuracy, use the strips before the printed date and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
