Product details
The Taylor K-1766 is a drop test kit for measuring chloride, the salt content of pool water. It is the test you use to confirm that a salt chlorinated pool is sitting in the range its chlorine generator wants.
How it is used
You take a measured sample, add the reagent a drop at a time while swirling, and count drops until the color changes. The count converts to a salt reading. It takes a couple of minutes and it does not need calibration, batteries or a meter.
Why test salt separately
Most salt systems show a salt number on the panel, but that figure comes from the cell and can drift as the cell ages or scales. Rain, splash out and fresh fill water all move the real level. Checking with reagents gives you an independent answer before you decide whether to add salt or leave it alone.
