Benchmarking a possibly-expired test kit

[FormerBromineUser]

Ugh. That kit has a history of short longevity; it will last two seasons if you stored it inside in a dark area over the winter. That's said with no guarantees.

It is also missing several key tests: the FAS-DPD test for FC/CC and the CYA test.

I am sorry to tell you that to manage your pool properly, even with fresh reagents for the 1004, that kit is just not enough.

I suggest the 2006C, but it is hard to get in Canada. Some people have friends in the states who will buy it and then ship it north.... Right now it is on Amazon for $55-60 usd in the USA. Check your Canada Amazon.

I am sorry I don't have better news.
