Taylor R-0013-C-12 Cyanuric Acid Reagent – 2 oz Bottle
Part # R-0013-C-12 — a reagent solution used in pool and spa test kits to measure cyanuric acid (stabilizer) levels. This chemical helps determine whether your pool’s cyanuric acid concentration is within the proper range to protect sanitizer from sunlight degradation.
Key Features
- Specifically formulated to test cyanuric acid (CYA) levels using compatible Taylor test kits.
- 2-ounce size — suitable for multiple tests.
- Provides accurate, reliable results that help maintain proper water chemistry and chlorine stability.
- Useful for routine pool and spa maintenance, especially during seasonal changes or after heavy use.
Typical Applications
Used any time you need to check or monitor cyanuric acid levels. Particularly useful after partial water replacement, heavy rainfall, chemical additions, or when stabilizer levels are suspected to be low or high.
Usage & Testing Notes
Use according to instructions of a compatible pool test kit. Collect a water sample, add the reagent per kit directions, allow reaction time, then compare against color standards to determine CYA concentration. Replace reagent annually or when suspected to be expired to ensure test accuracy.
Why Choose This Reagent?
The R-0013-C-12 bottle lets you reliably test stabilizer levels to ensure proper chlorine protection against sunlight. Keeping CYA in range helps maintain effective sanitization while avoiding over-stabilization that can interfere with chlorine activity.
Maintenance Tips
- Store reagent upright, tightly capped, out of direct sunlight and at stable room temperature to preserve accuracy.
- Discard and replace reagent if bottle is older than about a year or if discoloration occurs.
- Keep spare reagent on hand — testing CYA regularly helps prevent water chemistry issues and ensures safe pool operation.
