Store strips in original container with cap tightly sealed. Keep in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and chemical storage areas. Avoid exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures.

Professional Testing Guidelines

Ideal total chlorine levels should be maintained between 1-3 ppm for pools and 3-5 ppm for spas
