First Choice 7-Way Pool Test Strips provide a quick, reliable way to test the most critical pool water parameters in seconds—without liquid reagents, color wheels, or complicated kits. Each strip delivers clear readings for seven key water balance and sanitation factors, making routine testing simple for homeowners and service professionals alike.

Designed for consistent accuracy, these strips help you catch water issues early and make precise chemical adjustments before problems like algae, cloudy water, or corrosion develop.


What These Test Strips Measure

The First Choice 7-Way strips test for the most important pool chemistry values in one dip:

  • Total Chlorine

  • pH

  • Total Alkalinity

  • Calcium Hardness

  • Cyanuric Acid (Stabilizer)

  • Bromine (where applicable)

Results are visible in seconds using an easy-to-read color chart on the bottle.

  • Protects pool surfaces and equipment from scale or corrosion
