TDS test shows water quality with a single measurement
WaterWorks water test strips provide an easy and quick way to measure the amount of total solubilities (TDS) in water. Too high a concentration can cause turbidity, metallic taste, limescale deposits and reduce the effectiveness of water purifiers such as chlorine. The pH balance of the water can also suffer without you noticing.
What does TDS stand for?
Total Dissolved Solids covers all small particles that are dissolved in water – such as salts, minerals, metals and organic compounds. Even if the water looks clear, its content may differ from that of clean drinking water.
| Value (ppm) | Water quality |
|---|---|
| under 50 | Very clean |
| 50-150 | Good |
| 150-300 | Suitable for drinking water |
| 300-500 | Acceptable |
| 500-1000 | At the border |
| over 1000 | Not recommended for drinking |
When is a water test useful?
Monitoring the TDS value is important if you use water purifiers, aquariums or coffee machines, or if you are concerned about the taste, appearance or functionality of the water. Water test strips help to easily monitor water quality at home or in a work environment.
