2745250 Test Strips: Hardness, Total as CaCO3, 0-425 ppm by AquaPhoenix

Water hardness is caused almost entirely by calcium and magnesium ions. Other di- and trivalent metals have a similar effect, but usually are not present in high enough concentration in potable waters to cause problems. Hardness increases soap consumption in laundries and causes scale in boilers. Contains 50 tests.
