Product details

The Pentair R151276 is the #1200 specialty test kit for total water hardness. It reads a single parameter, and it reads it clearly, which is why it is a common addition to a service kit that already covers chlorine and pH.

What is in the kit

You get a test vial and two solutions, packed together in a compact plastic box. The instructions are written to be followed at the pool edge, so no meter or laboratory glassware is involved.

Why hardness matters

Hardness is one of the numbers that make up balanced water. Left unchecked at either extreme it works against the pool, and a reading you trust is the first step to correcting it. Keeping the water in balance is what makes a pool comfortable to swim in and keeps the surfaces and equipment from paying for it.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What does this kit test?
Total water hardness only. It is a single parameter specialty kit rather than a full range test kit.
What comes in the box?
A test vial and two solutions, packed in a compact plastic box.
Do I still need a regular test kit?
Yes. Hardness is one part of water balance, so most owners run this alongside a kit or strips that read chlorine, pH and alkalinity.
Is it hard to use?
No. The kit is designed to be run at the pool with the printed instructions, no meter or extra gear needed.
