The Taylor R-0002-C DPD Reagent is a professional-grade testing reagent used to measure free and combined chlorine levels in swimming pool and spa water. This reagent is a critical component of Taylor DPD chlorine testing methods and is commonly used by pool service professionals, commercial facilities, and retail water testing stations.

Accurate chlorine testing is essential for maintaining safe, sanitized water. Chlorine levels that are too low can lead to algae growth and unsanitary conditions, while excessive chlorine can cause swimmer discomfort, surface damage, and equipment wear. The R-0002-C reagent reacts with chlorine in the water sample to produce a color change that allows for precise measurement when used with compatible Taylor test kits.

Using genuine Taylor reagents ensures reliable chemical reactions and consistent test results, which are critical for proper water balance decisions.


Why Accurate Chlorine Testing Matters

Chlorine is the primary sanitizer in most pools and spas.

Why this matters:

  • Confirms proper sanitizer levels for swimmer safety

  • Helps prevent algae growth and cloudy water

  • Avoids over-chlorination that can damage surfaces and equipment

  • Supports accurate chemical dosing and cost control

  • Ensures compliance with health and safety standards

Inaccurate testing can lead to unnecessary chemical use or persistent water quality problems.


Designed for Taylor DPD Test Methods

The Taylor R-0002-C reagent is formulated specifically for use in DPD chlorine test procedures. It works in conjunction with other Taylor reagents to measure free chlorine, combined chlorine, and total chlorine depending on the test method used.

Taylor reagents are manufactured under strict quality control standards to ensure accuracy and consistency. Using non-matching or expired reagents can lead to false readings and improper water treatment decisions.

For best results, reagents should be stored in a cool, dark environment and replaced according to Taylor’s recommended shelf life.


Ideal for Service, Commercial, and Retail Use

The R-0002-C reagent is widely used by:

  • Pool and spa service professionals

  • Commercial and public pool facilities

  • Health departments and inspectors

  • Retail water testing counters

Maintaining accurate chlorine readings helps ensure safe swimming conditions and reliable pool operation across residential and commercial environments.
