Test Kit Questions


pride

Recommended Posts

Ive got a JBL PRO Aquatest kit which tests everything but I have no idea on its shelf life. Would anyone know how long the test bottle solutions last? 

I did manage to find on the box on the back a “conservation 03.2021” which i assume could mean expiry but wouldnt think all the tests in the kit would expire at the same time.

Ive had it for about 4 years.

What kits are other people using or recommend? Refills seem difficult to get hold of for the JBL kit or quite expensive.

There is no indication I can find on the shelf life for these systems.  I have seen posts saying you should replace every 12 months but no detail or data to back up the recommendation.  I use my LFS.  Test my water with my kit, note the results then take a water sample to my LFS.   If their results match mine I figure the home kit is still accurate.
