ACCURATE: The most accurate copper test strips for low levels
EASY: Easier to use and lower cost than two-part drop tests
FAST: Reads copper level from 0.2 to 1ppm in seconds
USER FRIENDLY: Purple color makes it easier to see than the blue on most tests
GOOD VALUE: Use weekly to maintain 0.2 - 0.4ppm of copper in pools and hot tubs
Specially made for solar ionizers, pool ionizers, mineral systems, mineral cartridges, copper sulphate products and copper algaecides. Copper is great at the right level Copper is very effective at controlling algae in swimming pools and hot tubs. However, it is important to keep it in the correct range to make sure that it's concentrated enough to be effective, but not so high that it could cause staining. These test strips make it easy to read the copper level, without the time and cost of the more complicated tests that use drops. Quick and easy to use Compared to other copper test strips, the color and reading level is very easy to distinguish. Compared with copper drop tests, these are easier to use and faster to develop. Watch the Langlier Saturation Index (LSI) The Langlier Saturation Index (LSI) is a measure of the key water parameters that affect the comfort and safety of the water. It is made up of pH, alkalinity and calcium. A negative LSI makes the water corrosive and it will slowly eat away at pool surfaces and equipment. It is also uncomfortable on your skin. A positive LSI can cause dissolved minerals to precipitate which can lead to staining over time. Keeping copper in the correct range, along with the LSI, is important to get the most of your mineral pool over the long term. Please use our Water Chemistry Tests (part CBI-WCT-BOX) to maintain a neutral LSI and a low chlorine level.
