Title: water analyzer
Post by: coolbreeze on March 13, 2009, 03:20:39 pm

anyone have any thoughts on
ColorQ PRO 7
Hand-Held
Water Analyzer
can be had for $125
it would be nice to not have to look at colors any more
this would be  all numbers
http://www.askalanaquestion.com/electronic_testing_meters_store.htm

this one is much better but $1095

my Hot Springs dealer said he could order one  for $500 to $600
he said search the web

do the lower end ones around $100 do they preform enough to as good or better than the strips and not as good as a dealer store computer one
anyone  
thanks

I have been using the AquaChek Tru-Test Digital water tester for almost a year and really like it.  The AquaChek uses strips, but the readings are very accurate when I compare it with my Taylor Test Kit.  The readings are in digital form on the tester so I don't have to figure out what shade anything is anymore.

Here is a link for the unit I bought.  http://www.rhtubs.com/store/test-kits.htm#but

Here is the manufacturer's link:  http://www.aquachek.com/servicepro.asp

It comes with 25 test strips and costs about $60 bucks.  I just replaced the original batteries which lasted just under a year.  I would definately buy it again.
