Why testing Alkalinity is important

Testing alkalinity is essential for maintaining stable water quality and ensuring optimal performance in any water system. Alkalinity, determines how resistant it is to pH changes.

• Low Alkalinity: Causes pH swings, corrosion, and water instability, making processes less reliable.
• High Alkalinity: Leads to scaling, cloudy water, and reduced effectiveness of disinfectants.

Regular alkalinity testing is essential for aquarium, food, beverage, drinking water, aquaculture, hydroponics, pools & spas, and industrial water systems. Accurate measurements help prevent equipment damage, support healthy aquatic life, and ensure safe, high-quality water for food and beverage production.
