Three Water Tests that are 100% Reliable, but not Precise

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!
