MagnaPool Test Strips 25pk | Magnesium Hardness Testing
Maintain perfect water chemistry in your MagnaPool system with these MagnaPool Magnesium Test Strips. Specifically calibrated to measure magnesium hardness levels, these strips deliver accurate results that traditional calcium-based test kits cannot provide. Essential for every MagnaPool owner who wants balanced, crystal-clear, and luxuriously soft water.
Why MagnaPool-specific strips? Traditional pool test kits cannot differentiate between calcium and magnesium, leading to inaccurate readings and improper chemical dosing. These strips are calibrated specifically for magnesium-based mineral pools.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use regular pool test strips for my MagnaPool?
A: No - standard pool test kits measure calcium hardness and cannot differentiate between calcium and magnesium. MagnaPool-specific strips are required for accurate magnesium hardness readings.
Q: How often should I test?
A: Test magnesium levels weekly during the swimming season and after heavy rain or pool refilling. Consistent monitoring prevents water quality issues before they start.
Q: What should my magnesium level be?
A: Refer to your MagnaPool system guidelines for the recommended magnesium hardness range. If you are unsure, contact us and we can advise.
Q: What do I do if my magnesium level is low?
A: Add MagnaPool minerals to bring levels back into the recommended range. Follow the dosing instructions on the mineral packaging for your pool volume.
