Welcome to our forum.
The Taylor test kit will show Free Chlorine (FC) and Total Chlorine (TC) where the Walmart will only show total. If you keep up on the water care, it doesn't really matter. It only becomes a problem when the combined chlorine (CC) is too high.The other things that the Taylor 2005 kit will do is test the alkalinity, calcium, PH and stablizer level. I don't know if the Walmart kit will do all those tests.
Don’t let our American industry be crippled by supporting Wal-mart! Demand better service and support then pay what’s fair from a professional in the industry. Every time you buy from Wal-Mart you cripple American jobs and support industry growth in china.Sorry to go off on a tangent but this is a huge sore spot for me……
