Poolmaster’s Complete 5-Way Pool Water Testing Kit is crafted for DIY pool and spa owners who want clarity when assessing water chemistry.

What’s included and how it helps

The kit covers solutions 1 through 5, with a note about solution 2 Phenol Red. The 5-Way system is designed for accurate readings in most residential pools and spas. The included 1-ounce bottles and 1/2-ounce bottles are arranged for easy use and transport, so you can take the kit poolside or keep it in storage.

Note for kit variations: solution #2 Phenol Red is used with the 5-Way kit, while Phenol Red is used with 2- or 3-Way kits. The included kit aligns with the 5-Way design and includes the necessary Phenol Red for readings.

How to use the kit
