Bleach Test Strips – Is Your Water Contaminated?

Our FAC Low-Range Test Strips are designed to accurately measure the free available chlorine levels in water, specifically in the range of 0-25ppm. These test strips are essential for ensuring that water is properly disinfected and safe for use in various applications such as swimming pools, spas, and drinking water.

Bleach, which is commonly used as a disinfectant to kill bacteria and other harmful microorganisms, can leave behind residue in water if not properly diluted or neutralized. This residue can react with other compounds in the water to form potentially toxic byproducts such as chloramines and trihalomethanes. These byproducts can pose serious health risks if consumed or inhaled, leading to issues such as respiratory problems, skin irritation, and even cancer in the long term.

Regularly testing the free available chlorine levels in water using our FAC Low-Range Test Strips can help prevent the buildup of harmful chlorine byproducts and ensure that water remains safe for use. By monitoring and maintaining proper chlorine levels, you can protect yourself and others from the potential hazards associated with bleach residue in water.
