Ph or Alkalinity...which should i fix first

[CarlD]

Leslie's on-line sells their FAS-DPD Service Test Kit--it's the same as the Taylor 2006

The least expensive Taylor K-2006 kit I've seen online is here. A kit in a similar spirit of Ben's kit in that it has more logical quantities of reagents and has 36% more volume of tests (so is comparably priced to the K-2006 kit above) is the TF100 from tftestkits.com here. The TF100 has somewhat different contents as described here. They are both excellent kits.

Best 64 bucks you'll ever spend.

Shelf life of kits? I am approaching the second year with the kit I bought from Ben. I would assume that the chemicals do go bad (Especially the dpd powder). Should I dump the whole kit and look at Trouble Free or Leslies? Thanks!

If you've kept the reagents in a cool, dry area, then you can use them for several seasons. If your dpd powder isn't black and in clumps, it's usually still good, too. I have a bottle of the calcium reagents that is from my original PS233 kit, and they are still measuring accurately, when compared with new reagents.
