What equiptment is needed to check the PH level on a system with glyco in it. How do you do it, and how often should be done? Thanks for your input and help.

Plain old...
litmus paper from any chemistry supply company will do the trick. 7.0 or slightly above I believe is the correct PH.0 -
stick meter
These battery operated stick meters are handy if you do a lot of testing. This Hach was purchased at Graingers. The red refractometer is a good tool for glycol testing PG or EG.
Or one of these solar test kits. It has the ph, glycol tester, point and shoot temperature, and a bunch of other cool tools for glycol and solar testing and maintenance.

Very Impressive Equipment
Thanks for the pictures. I will look into purchasing this equipment. How often should a test be made on a system?
