Industrial Test Systems Pool Borate Test Strips — 50 Count Made in USA, Fast Dip-and-Read Accuracy

These USA-made test strips offer pool professionals and home owners a simple, fast way to monitor borate (boron) concentration from 0 to 100 ppm. Unlike wet-chemistry kits that require mixing reagents or handling hazardous materials, the Pool Check borate strips deliver readable results in minutes with a durable color chart printed on the bottle for immediate comparison.

How quickly can I get an accurate borate reading?

You can obtain a reliable approximate borate concentration in under a minute using the single-dip method and matching the strip to the bottle chart. Each strip is manufactured under quality controls to ensure consistent color response across the 0–100 ppm detection range.

• Dip for a few seconds and remove to develop color
• Compare immediately to the printed color chart on the bottle
• Detection levels: 0, 10, 25, 50, 100 ppm (mg/L)

What makes these strips safe and easy compared to other borate tests?

Pool Check borate strips eliminate the need to mix or store liquid reagents, so you avoid handling hazardous chemicals and storing MSDS materials. The straightforward dip-and-read process makes them accessible to non-technical users while still meeting expectations for field and poolside testing.

• No reagents or chemical mixing required
• Single-strip handling reduces spill risk and waste
• Clear, user-friendly color chart printed on the bottle

How precise and reliable are the readings for pool maintenance?

These test strips are produced in ITS’s U.S. facility with Good Manufacturing Practices and are quality-checked throughout production. While strips provide practical, on-site results, they are best used for routine monitoring and quick checks; confirm critical readings with lab methods when absolute precision is required.

• Manufactured under reproducible, traceable quality controls
• Standards prepared with calibrated equipment and reference methods
• Ideal for regular checks and troubleshooting borate levels

How should I store and use the bottle of 50 strips for best results?

Keep the bottle tightly closed, stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity to preserve strip sensitivity. Use strips before the expiration date and avoid touching the reagent pads to maintain accuracy.

• Store upright, sealed, at room temperature away from moisture
• Avoid contaminating pads with fingers or dirty surfaces
• Use one strip per test; discard used strips—do not reuse
