Don't try to get a K2006 locally; you might end up with a K2005, and that is NOT what you need.

Locally, there are only two useful options: (a) a cheap OTO / phenol red kit OR (b) the HTH 6-way (not: 5-way) kit made by Taylor and sold in some Walmarts. If you can't get (b), get (a).

I'm sure somewhere, somebody sells the Taylor K2006, but we've never encountered that happening after years of recommending that kit: most pool dealers don't want to sell a kit that replaces them! The test kit page linked in my blue signature block has links to the K2006 on Amazon.

Adding 4 gallons of "super shock" isn't a disaster on an in-ground pool: if your pool is well and truly slimed, and over 20,000 gallons, it may not even have an effect.
