Three Water Tests that are 100% Reliable, but not Precise
A prescription (or treatment) without proper diagnosis is malpractice. Eric explains three foolproof, 100% reliable tests that can help you rule out certain variables when troubleshooting your pool. They're not precise, and not meant to be.

Show Notes
00:00 - Intro
02:18 - Thermometers are reliable and accurate, but because they're not water tests, they're not included in our list of three tests in this episode.
04:19 - No test kit stays accurate and precise forever. All of them need to be maintained, used properly, calibrated and reagents need to be taken care of (and not expired).
05:13 - The White Bucket Test
07:43 - Our first white bucket test...green water out of the hose on a startup
10:23 - White bucket tests can be used to identify if there are metals in tap water too
13:47 - Melamine clouds with Cyanuric Acid (CYA)
15:20 - PR-10,000 clouds with phosphates of any kind (red cap test)
17:55 - Ruling out variables helps you narrow in on the cause of the problem
20:06 - Closing remarks. Thanks for listening!
