eXact iDip Professional Test Kit
The eXact iDip®
Professional Test Kit is one of the most underrated Photometer/Digital Test Kits
on the market today. The concept is a bit complicated and I can see why most
pool pros and homeowners pass on it. After using it and testing the kit I can say
it is extremely easy to use and very accurate. So accurate that it is EPA
approved for the Free and Total Chlorine Tests. The Professional Test Kit would
be perfect for Commercial Pool use as well as Residential Pool use.
Let me try to take
the mystery out of the eXact iDip Kits. It is a photometer that reads the color
released on the pre-measured test strip. Other photometers use reagents or
pills but the concept is the same. The photometer will read the light spectrum
and give you a digital readout of the test factor you are doing at that moment.
The eXact iDip is very accurate when done correctly.
It also links via Bluetooth
with the downloadable app and you do all the testing from the app on your phone
or device. The test results can be saved and also emailed to yourself or your customer.
The one negative and the aspect that leads to confusion is that only the
Chlorine, Alkalinity and pH test comes free included in the app. Additional test parameters will need to be purchased
and downloaded in-app at $4.99 each or as a bundle (Pool Bundle) for $8.99.
This is a onetime purchase so if you want to test for the CYA or Calcium Hardness you would need to purchase those test parameters for the app. There
are over 40 test parameters available.
Once
you purchase the test parameter for say, Copper, you would then need to order
the Copper test strips. Now the eXact iDip
can test for Copper going forward as long as you have the test strips. Once the
test parameter is purchased you have unlimited use of it. Should the test parameters
all be free? I think that would help sell the product but it is the decision of
the parent company Industrial Test Systems and not mine. You would purchase the
test parameters and test strips that you need and truthfully you don’t need all
40 plus. Besides Copper, I would suggest Iron, Phosphates, and Nitrates give yourself
a well-rounded tester.
The
pH+ is a pretty nice digital water tester. It can do pH, Conductivity, TDS,
Salinity and water temperature. If you purchase the optional ORP probe you can
swap out the pH probe and also record the ORP. It is a very versatile and
accurate digital tester and together with the eXact iDip it makes the Pro-Test
Kit a real winner. The number of test factors that these two testers can do
will take your water testing to a new level.
The coolest feature is that with the reading from the iDip and pH+ the app will
give you the Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) reading by extracting the results
from the test factors recorded from your water sample. This is a great way to
check to see if the water is corrosive or scale forming. This alone makes this
test kit by far the most comprehensive one on the market today.
