IMPORTANT!
Do NOT use this table to cross-match Taylor and PoolSolutions' reagents; use the cross-match table  instead. Also, the number of tests for the ALK test is assumes water with 150 ppm total alkalinity; for the CAL test, the assumption is 180ppm hardness.

READ THIS CAREFULLY, PLEASE!
Please note that the reagent that LIMITS the number of tests is in bold!

I know some of you will get confused if you don't read this note carefully. For example, the LIMITING reagent for the CAL (Calcium hardness) test is #1; the limit is approximately 30 tests. Once you've completed 30 tests, you will likely still have enough CAL#2 for 6 more tests . . . but since you'll be out of CAL #1, it won't do you any good.
