The AquaChek® Advantage
The AquaChek Advantage stems from manufacturing products that are easy to use while still delivering high quality results all supported by the expertise of an industry leader in water analysis, Hach. As part of the Hach family of brands, we are supported by 85 years of expertise from a global leader in water analysis. Since Hach’s founding in 1933, we’ve led the industry in developing innovative solutions to help customers manage their water more efficiently and accurately.
Test strips have long been the go-to testing method for pool and spa owners—and for good reason. The dry chemistries used in these strips are as reliable as those in liquid reagents and tablets, without all of the complicated testing steps; just dip and read. Additionally, with AquaChek’s history of innovation—from being the first to introduce test strips to the pool and spa market to being the first to introduce digital color matching technology for consumers—we have become the premier choice for consumers, retailers, and service professionals alike.
You want your customers to have a great experience maintaining and enjoying their pool or spa. Provide them an accurate and easy way with AquaChek, the world’s leading brand of pool and spa test strips. Less time spent testing and guessing means more time enjoying and relaxing.
Chlorine 4-in-1
Designed for customers who use Chlorine in their pool or spa, Yellow 4-in-1 is the go-to product for testing the most critical parameters to keep a clean and balanced pool and protect equipment and surfaces.
Bromine 4-in-1
Ideal for use with Bromine sanitizers used in pools and spas kept at higher water temperatures. Red 4-in-1 includes a test for Total Hardness since warmer water temperatures increase the potential for scale build-up.
Chlorine 4-in-1 + Shock
Chlorine 4-in-1 + ShockChek test kit helps prevent time consuming and costly cloudy water and algae eventsso Pool & Spa owners can spend more time enjoying their pool or spa and less time maintaining it.
Test results simply indicate whether “yes” the pool or spa needs to be shocked or that the water is “okay.”

MPS 3-in-1
AquaChek Orange 3-in-1 test strips are ideal for customers who use Monopersulfate, a non-chlorine based oxidizer used in mineral purification systems.
Peroxide 3-in-1
Peroxide is an alternative oxidizer which is ideal for shocking a biguanide based pool or a chlorine pool when elevated chlorine levels are not desirable as a shocking treatment.
Copper 3-in-1
Copper 3-in-1 test strips are designed for use with mineral purification or copper ionization systems. Maintaining proper levels of copper will help ensure that bacteria and other contaminants are eliminated.
AQUACHEK® SALT TEST KIT
Complete Testing for Salt Systems
The AquaChek Salt Test Kit was developed specifically due to the number of times we heard Salt pool owners asking if they should be testing for other chemistries besides salt. The answer is absolutely. Saltwater pool owners still need to shock their pool, so they need to test Chlorine levels to make sure the system is producing enough sanitizer necessary to maintain water in a safe, healthy and algae-free condition.
The Salt Test Kit provides the most commonly used tests conveniently packaged together in one kit – includes a 10 ct. bottle of AquaChek White Salt
Titrators and a 25 ct. bottle of AquaChek Yellow 4-in-1 Test Strips. Tests for:

Regular testing of pool and spa water is important to maintaining proper balance for crystal-clear water, prevent damage to equipment and surfaces, protect swimmers from potentially harmful microorganisms and ensure swimmer comfort.
Swimming pools: At least 2x a week
When the pool is not in regular use, test a minimum of twice a week. Run the pump for one hour before testing. When the swimmer-load increases, testing more often is necessary to make sure that the water is in balance. Also test more frequently after environmental changes (when it rains, when leaves get in the pool, or when your dog goes for a swim). These conditions will deplete the sanitizer level and alter other parameters of the water balance more rapidly.
Spas: Before and after each use
Imbalances can occur quickly in spas. If chlorine or bromine has been added recently, make sure it has mixed thoroughly with the water before testing.
Remember, it’s easier to make slight adjustments to water balance on a regular basis rather than having to restore water that is outside the safe parameters.
Silver 7-in-1
AquaChek Silver 7-in-1 is our most comprehensive test strip. Trusted by service professionals, this test strip tests for seven key parameters in seconds.
Pro® 5-in-1
Pro 5-in-1 focuses on the most critical parameters that need to be tested on a regular basis. Popular with service professionals, this can be paired with Pro II for testing parameters that require less frequent testing.
Pro II 4-in-1
A complementary product to be used with AquaChek Pro 5-in-1, this test strip is a troubleshooter for parameters that are tested less frequently.

Salt Titrators
AquaChek White Salt Titrators measure salt levels from 400 to 7,000 ppm (sodium chloride), in just minutes. Each lot of titrators is specially calibrated for improved accuracy and precision.
Prevent/Troubleshoot Algae Problems by Testing for Phosphates
One-Minute Phosphate
Even low levels of phosphate can lead to algae in your pool or spa. This test uses powder pillows and vials, which offer increased sensitivity at the lower ranges and are less susceptible to damage by heat and humidity.
High Range Phosphate
This quick and easy test is ideal for use when phosphate levels are high. This will help you determine which phosphate treatment removal methods are appropriate for your pool.
Sodium Bromide
Sodium Bromide titrators allow you to measure sodium bromide with greater precision than dip-and-read test strips, simplifying water testing for systems using bromide generators. The titrators yield accurate results in 3-5 minutes.
Copper
Copper is another common water contaminate that can cause staining, water discoloration, and particle build up on metal fixtures and plumbing. Avoid these problems by detecting up to 3 ppm with AquaChek Copper test strips.
Iron Kit
Maintaining proper total iron levels can prevent corrosion and rusting and help ensure the longevity of pool and spa fixtures. Kit includes a reagent powder pillow, sample vial, and test strips to ensure accurate results.
Sodium Chloride 400 – 7,000 ppm (mg/L) Phosphate 0 – 1,000 ppb

Borate
Borate works as a buffer to help control pH, aid in algae prevention, and contribute to water clarity and a softer feel of the water. Use this test to make sure borate levels are in range.
High Range Chlorine
The High Range Chlorine test strip is useful for determining when chlorine is in excess of 10 to 20 ppm in pools and hot tubs. It can also be used in applications where sterilization and disinfection is required, measuring up to 600 ppm.
Total Hardness
Prevent corrosive and scale-forming water by testing for total hardness. The AquaChek Total Hardness test strip measures calcium and magnesium, the two minerals that primarily make up hardness in water.
Total Dissolved Solids
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is the measure of everything that has dissolved in the water over time. High TDS contributes to cloudy water, which makes it difficult to balance chemicals and can lead to increased chlorine usage.
Cyanuric Acid
This is a stand-alone specialty test for cyanuric acid (stabilizer). An ideal level of cyanuric acid will make chlorine more stable when exposed to UV rays.
Nitrate/Nitrite
High nitrate levels promote bacteria growth and will increase chlorine demand. This specialty product for pool professionals gives results for nitrate/ nitrite levels in less than a minute.
