Drop tester for alkalinity in pool and hot tub120 total alkalinity determinations
The water alkalinity drop tester allows approximately 120 determinations of the total alkalinity of the water in the pool or hot tub. This way you monitor the carbonate balance, which helps the water keep a stable pH level.
Water alkalinity drop tester – description
The alkalinity drop tester is a convenient way to check whether the water is in carbonate balance. At an acceptable alkalinity level, the water can balance its pH naturally, while at too low a value the pH is not stable and fluctuates often.
Alkalinity can decrease when the water is heated and when disinfectants are used. That is why it is good to monitor total alkalinity regularly: this pool tester gives you a clear value by which you choose the right product.
Description
This tester allows for approximately 120 determinations of the total alkalinity of the pool water. Alkalinity is also called “carbonate balance.” This means that if the pool water has an acceptable level of alkalinity and is therefore in “carbonate balance,” the water can naturally balance its pH level.
Due to the use of, for example, water heating and disinfectants, the alkalinity of the water can decrease and therefore the pH can fluctuate. If the total alkalinity value is too low, the pH is not stable and there are very frequent fluctuations. Conversely, with high total alkalinity, the pH level will tend to return to the original higher pH.
The alkalinity value must be in the range of 80 – 120 mg/l. If the alkalinity value is lower than 80 mg/l, use Azuro Alkalita plus, and if it is higher than 120 mg/l, use Azuro pH minus. Follow the instructions of the drop tester or the labels of the products themselves.
Total alkalinity should be measured regularly (at least twice a week, more often at higher water temperatures).

Important! The text above is for information only! Read the instructions carefully before use!
Why choose the alkalinity drop tester
Alkalinity control is the foundation of stable pH.
120 measurements
One pack is enough for approximately 120 total alkalinity determinations.
Stable pH
With the right alkalinity, the water can balance the pH level by itself.
Clear what to add
Below 80 mg/l use Azuro Alkalita plus, and above 120 mg/l – Azuro pH minus.
For pools and hot tubs
The tester is designed for use in both swimming pools and hot tubs.
How to act depending on the result
The alkalinity drop test is used according to the instructions on the packaging, and the result determines the next step.
- Measure regularlyTotal alkalinity is measured at least twice a week, and more often at higher water temperatures.
- Aim for 80–120 mg/lThis is the range in which alkalinity should stay.
- Below 80 mg/lUse Azuro Alkalita plus to raise the alkalinity.
- Above 120 mg/lUse Azuro pH minus, following the product label.
Frequently asked questions – alkalinity drop tester
How many measurements are in the pack?
The drop alkalinity tester allows approximately 120 total alkalinity determinations.
What is water alkalinity?
Alkalinity is also called carbonate balance. At an acceptable level, the water is in carbonate equilibrium and can balance pH naturally.
What should the value be?
Alkalinity should be in the range of 80 to 120 mg/l.
What should I do if the alkalinity is low or high?
Below 80 mg/l use Azuro Alkalita plus, and above 120 mg/l – Azuro pH minus.
How often should I measure?
At least twice a week, and more often at higher water temperatures.
Is the tester for pools or for hot tubs?
This pool tester is designed for use in swimming pools and hot tubs.
