Taylor kit

[Rayman]

Do you replace the whole kit or just the bottles?  These are Canadian figures so take that into account, an entire new kit at my dealer is $23.99 and if I want to replace the Taylor brand chems it is $8.99 + $8.99 + $5.99 = $23.97.  

Doesn't sound like thay want you to buy them seperate!

Although I don't know how much Taylor sells the chems/kits in Canada, those prices sound like the big bottles.

If you go to Doc's site you'll see that the large bottles are about $7 US and the small about $3 US. I tend to keep my testing chems in a cool, dark place (basement steps) and they last a while longer than the 1 year IMO.

I bought the larger size since I also own a pool and test PH and chlorine during the summer months as well.

Quite honestly, I don't test all the parameters that often, calcium every fill for the tub and in the pool once or twice a season; I test Alkalinity very infrequently and I also only test the CYA in the pool. If I did do all these tests all the time I probably would just buy a whole new kit every time I needed a bunch of reagents and add a small set of reagents for chlorine and PH.

Don't you think it's funny that the cost of the kit is the same as the refills? I do.

I would suggest that those are the large bottles. The small refill sizes you are using will be much less. Usually less than 3 bucks.

The taylor kit in question only has 3 reagents  R01 R02 & R14 for ph  which is a little dif than R04 and the test vials are smaller.  

Ray your dealer should be able to refill the R01-2 but you would have to get a new R14
