It covers free and total chlorine, bromine, pH, acid demand and total alkalinity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the numbers cover\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChlorine reads from 0.5 to 5 ppm as both free and total, so you can see how much sanitizer is still available and how much has already combined. Bromine runs 1 to 10 ppm. pH reads 6.8 to 8.2, the range a pool is actually kept in, and the acid demand test turns a high pH reading into an actual dose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy DPD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDPD separates free chlorine from total chlorine. That difference is what tells you whether the water needs more sanitizer or needs shocking, and it is the reason service techs carry a DPD kit rather than strips alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it stops\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the Trouble-Shooter, not a full service kit. It does not include cyanuric acid or calcium hardness.
