Why The Pool Doctor Recommends Test Strips
Maintaining safe water quality depends on the accuracy of water analysis. Today great strides have been made which now make test strips accurate and the preferred water testing method. We use test strips and have found them much easier to use, and more economical than the liquid test kits.

Accuracy equal to our $2500 in house water lab. Amazing Technology!
