Taylor’s Residential Series™ is designed for spa and pool owners who have low bather loads and test their water between visits from a service technician or trips to their pool supplies store. This series uses the same quality reagents as Taylor’s kits for professional analysts. Buyers have a choice of three progressively more sophisticated models: the Basic™, the Trouble-Shooter™, and the i-CARE™, as described below.
Every kit in the Residential Series is available in our classic case—the solid blue, injection-molded plastic kit which is so durable it can be refilled season after season. Select kits are also available in a see-through, thermoformed plastic case we’ve dubbed “the clamshell.” This packaging allows retail shoppers to see all its contents without opening the kit … and leaving a messy shelf behind. Clamshell cases will last through a swim season. Tabs on every case make them easy to hang from hooks, and Basic and Trouble-Shooter kits in the classic case can be displayed on the counter in their colorful shipping/display carton. Residential Series features include .75 oz. reagents color-coded to instructions; sanitizer values for both chlorine and bromine testing (calibrated to work with Taylor pH reagents R-0014, R-0015, and R-0016); five sets of printed-color standards encased in plastic for longevity; and molded fill lines to ensure the correct sample size. Instructions are written in clear, nontechnical terms and printed on waterproof paper that resists fading and tearing. The flip side of the instruction card has dosage charts for translating test results into treatment. Homeowners using the i-CARE kit can go to watertesting.taylortechnologies.com, enter their test results, and get treatment recommendations for balancing their pool water by using Taylor’s online Water Analysis program.
