Hello! br>br>At Bartovation, we take pride in providing some of the world's most cost-effective tests. This is our most affordable chlorine test for restaurants and food preparation areas!
The entire dipped section of the strip is supposed to change color. If you only see a small line at the top of the strip where you dipped it, your chlorine level is much higher than the strip was designed to test, as this strip was only designed to test diluted bleach in the range of 0-100. It's not for testing undiluted bleach or chlorine (because high levels of chlorine bleach out color changes, causing them to disappear from the strip). When your solution reaches the testing range, all of the strips you dip will turn a different color. If you need to test a higher level of chlorine than this strip can handle, please contact us and I'll be happy to assist you in finding a product that is better suited to your needs! - - - - - - - - - - - - - Scott

Selected User Reviews For USA Made Restaurant Sanitizer Chlorine Bleach Test Paper, 10-200 ppm [100 Paper Test Strips]
I wanted to check the potency of some chlorine bleach jugs that had been sitting around for a while. The area where the Bartovation test strip was submerged turned white, and the edge of the saturated area changed color when I dipped it into the chlorine. Another reviewer had mentioned this, and I was concerned that I'd gotten a "bad batch" as well. I then reread the instructions, which state unequivocally that the strips should not be used in undiluted bleach. (Grasshopper, there's nothing like following the directions. ) ) So I gave it another shot, this time using a diluted bleach solution, and voila! Perfection in every way. Here's the full scoop on which solutions will and won't work with these strips: br>br>IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT This strip was created specifically for testing chlorine sanitizers in three-part sinks in restaurants. It can be used to test anything with a 10-digit number. 200 PPM. It will not work to test tap water, pool water, undiluted bleach, or anything else that contains Quaternary Ammonia as an active ingredient.
However, they were a success! It took a couple of tries for them to become accustomed to them. I had anticipated them being a little thicker, similar to my pool test kit. However, they are made of very thin paper, and the vile is quite small. However, I need to bleach my well water and well components, as well as test many of the house's water lines. These strips were extremely helpful in determining whether or not I had enough bleach in my system. Take note of the following: These test strips range in size from ten to twenty-five centimeters. I needed a different strip because my well had 200 PPM of chlorine, so I needed to make sure there was no Bleach left in it.
It's strange to review test strips, but I'm going to do it anyway for one reason. Despite the fact that they appear to work perfectly and change color when dipped in water, getting just one out of the small vial is quite difficult. In fact, I had to purchase this tube after the previous one was discarded, resulting in the waste of all the strips. It's nearly impossible to get just one out of the tiny vial, and if your hands are wet, you'll end up wetting the rest, which will cause them to stick together. Plus, once they've been wet, I'm not sure if they'll react properly afterwards. So I'll keep buying them, but I'm hoping the company comes up with a better dispenser.
Although you get 100 strips for a low price, they are extremely thin and difficult to remove from the vial. Yes, they work and you get a lot of them, but the flimsiness drove me to buy another set (from the same seller, because I didn't have an issue with the brand, just the specific product). I finally decided to purchase the "Active Chlorine/Bleach Test Strips, 0-100" Bartovation's "2000 ppm, Designed for Daycares and Senior Homes for Sanitizing and Disinfecting [Vial of 100 Strips]" is described as "2000 ppm, Designed for Daycares and Senior Homes for Sanitizing and Disinfecting [Vial of 100 Strips]". Those were much more appealing to me.
The test strips we were given don't work, or at least don't work correctly. The area where the strip was submerged turns white, and the edge of the saturated area changes color when you dip it in the chlorine solution as directed. We've reached the end of Amazon's return period, so we'll be contacting the manufacturer to resolve the problem.
When you get the test strips, they don't work. I got some from next door and put them in my water to see if they were safe. Make sure you don't throw your money away.
It's total nonsense. I used three different types of sanitized water to test these twice. Capsules, bleach, and liquid sanitizer are all good options. No reading at all, so I went to a nearby restaurant and got the same result. I requested a replacement and received it, only to be charged again.
This product appeals to me because the test strips are contained in a watertight tube. The main competitor's product comes in a two-part dispenser that falls apart easily if dropped; with Bartovation testing strips, you don't have to worry about that. I ordered two of these and will order more in the future.
