- Healthy pH value of drinking water: A pH value of 7 means a substance is neutral. The lower value indicates acidity, and a higher value is a sign of alkalinity. To better understand the range in pH, take a look at these examples: apple juice 3, orange juice 3.5, coffee 5.5, milk 6.2, baking soda 8.5, soapy water 10, bleach 12.
- Which kind of water to choose: Consuming excessively acidic or alkaline water is unhealthy, warns the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Drinking water must have a pH value of 6.5-8.5 to fall within EPA standards.
- Function of TDS meter: NSF International stated a TDS meter is not necessary. However, it can certify whether there are some excessive contaminants like heavy metals.
- Very important tips: the water may be corrosive if the TDS level is very low. The corrosive waters may leak the toxic metals from the household plumbing.So, the initial recommendation would be to get your water tested and determine the general quality and chemistry of your water. Do this before consuming or installing your water treatment system.

Very accurate reading!
Before purchasing the PH and TDS testers I was using a liquid types tester that was a guessing game matching the color of water to the color chart. I needed accurate measurements because the quality of water I drink is of the highest importance. I do not trust tap water and most bottled waters are bad as well. I tested the TDS in my tap water and it was over 500 and I wanted to test it against my survival water filter that is supposed to take it to near zero minus calcium. After calibrating the tester, I found that my top of the line survival filter that you can run river water through and make it safe still had a TDS reading of over 300. My tap waters PH was just over 7 which is actually pretty good or considered PH neutral. I prefer higher alkaline water due to its health benefits so I like to add liquid drops to my water to raise the PH to around 8.5 or 9. I then decided to purchase a few of the most popular brands to see what they measured and I was blown away…some were lower than 6 which is acid and an acidic internal environment promotes disease. To verify the accuracy on the testers I looked up the numbers online for all of the brands I tested, and it was spot on. I travel a lot for my work and this will be going everywhere with me so I know what quality of water is going in my body.

Game changer
These meters are a game changer for my kombucha making! I’m easily able to test the starting pH and test again to know when the ideal time to stop first fermentation. The water quality tester is incredible too! Though I live in a town with supposedly near perfect drinking water, I still found there to be a too high ppm of contaminants thanks to the tester. I would highly recommend these even if you are just curious to know the pH or contaminant level of your drinking water.

Easy and accurate.
These little gadgets are perfect for making sure your drinking water is safe! I live in a rural area with hard water and have always been curious if the water softener was doing its job. By using these meters I am confident that my family is drinking, cooking and bathing with water that meets the EPA standards. I also use it on my pool which saves me from buying expensive test strips or messy chemicals.

Great value for the price!
This was my first time trying a TDS and PH digital meter or any products like this. For my pool, I typically use strips to test. I have been researching ph levels in water as of late. So far, it is quick to use and the results come very fast. Was very surprised at the different levels drinking water had. I am planning on using these to test my pool water as well. If it proves to be effective I would recommend to others.. Overall, for the price and quick results I would recommend to others.

Easy to use and valuable.
Works great and looks accurate. Testing water bottles multiple times and gave me same results. Testing tap water which I used for cooking, based on results started using bottled water for cooking. This product is more like Annual medical exam, good to test even when everything is good and know the flawless.

Work well, good combination
This is good combo,If you need to take home measurements or want to know when a water filter needs to be changed in your home it is a very good option. If you need to do lab tests or a formal investigation you may not have the necessary accuracy.

Two thumbs up
These work great. I’ve been using for a month. I check my hydroponic lettuce weekly and adjust when needed. I tested the ppm of my tap water and from my distiller. Tap cam out around 180 and distiller was 0. PH also worked great. For the money, I highly recommend.

Good product
These are great. Had them a few months no need to calibrate ph meter yet. Would buy again. Thank you. A product that last. I forgive you for the 1st ph meter leaking.

Easy to use
Love that they work well, and that the replacement order had both in the package unlike before. Easy to use
Amber Griffin
Cheap and works good
The calibration materials the provide are junk, wish they sent liquid like they use to.. Had to go buy liquid from the local shop. Great product for the cost ..
