TDS & pH Meters

TDS and pH testing is very important when it comes to water quality. Test Assured has pH and TDS meters for sale. TDS stands for Total Dissolved Solids. These solids include the total amount of minerals, salts, metals, or mobile charged ions that could be dissolved in your water’s volume. A TDS meter will be able to test your water for how many milligrams (mg) per unit are present in its volume. The lower the amount of total dissolved solids your water has, the purer it is and the safer it is to drink. Water hardness is a common example of one of the factors affected by total dissolved solids in water. Water hardness is usually caused by the amounts of calcium and magnesium salts present in the water. While Test Assured offers water hardness test strips already to test for this specifically, the TDS meter offers a broader scale of results and analysis for your water even including temperature. The pH meter is another incredibly advantageous tool used for testing the acidity or basicness of your water. Water that is too basic involves anything of values 9 to 14 on the pH scale. If your water is too acidic it will fall in the 0 to 4 value range. However, it is ideal for your health and any water basin that your water’s pH has a value of 7. To ensure your water’s health, perform home water testing today and test the water coming from your faucet –or the water in your pools –using Test Assured’s TDS and pH meters.
