    Protect your SWG investment and get a test kit. It's the only way to figure out what you need to do to your water.

    Hey, I just got a summer job at a pool store and I think I can test water pretty darn well!
    A GOOD drop based kit is a NECESSITY if you want to take care of your pool yourself and a good idea if you pay someone else to take care of it so you can be sure they are doing it right. It will be the best money you ever invested in your pool!
    Not to sound like a commercial but I do have to add that the kit that Ben sells on the sister website http://www.poolsolutions.com is probably the best "bang for your buck" that you are going to find! It should handle just about everything you will need for routine maintenance. (for a SWG get the PS-234S; to get the equivalent tests from Taylor you would spend over $125 plus shipping, have to get 3 different kits, get some duplicaton of tests in the process, get some tests you will probably never need, and get much small amounts of reagents and have to buy refills before the pool season is over!)
