What This Digital Reader Does
The TruTest digital reader reads compatible AquaChek test strips and displays results on the screen. This can help users get clearer readings than visual color matching, especially when testing pool water regularly.
It should be used with the correct AquaChek TruTest strips only. Standard test strips from other brands or non-compatible strip types may not read properly in this meter.
Pool and Spa Testing Guidance
Use this meter as part of a regular water care routine. Testing can help you monitor sanitizer level, pH, and alkalinity so you know when water adjustments may be needed.
If your pool water chemistry needs salt cell care support, HTH pool salt salt cell saver may be reviewed separately as part of saltwater pool maintenance.
For broader saltwater pool care, the Natural Chemistry pool salt water maintenance kit may be useful to compare when planning ongoing pool maintenance.
How to Use the Test Strip Reader
Start with clean hands and fresh test strips. Dip the compatible strip according to the product instructions, place it into the reader as directed, and read the digital result within the recommended time window.
Do not reuse test strips. Keep the bottle closed when not in use, and store strips away from moisture, sunlight, and pool chemical fumes.
Water Balance and Adjustment Notes
If the meter shows pH that is too high, the SaltScapes saltwater pool care pH reducer may be a related product to review before making pH adjustments.
If you use a separate salt meter, the Hayward GLX-CAL-SOL 3200 PPM salt meter calibration solution can help support accurate salt meter readings when compatible with your device.
Maintenance and Storage
Keep the digital reader dry when it is not being used. Wipe the strip tray clean after testing and store the meter indoors in a safe, dry place.
If readings seem inconsistent, check that the strips are not expired, the meter is clean, the batteries are working, and the correct strip type is being used.
