Negative
Result
When the test result shows Control Lines and Test Lines
on any of the LOW and HIGH LFDs, then the test is negative.
This means that there is no contamination or, if there is
contamination, it is at such a low level that it requires
no immediate action. Note the different strengths of the
"C" and "T" lines. This is normal. |

Low
Positive
When the test result shows Control Lines on all LFDs, plus a Test Line on the HIGH LFD, but no line on the LOW LFD, then the test is positive at the lower of two settings. This means that there is contamination present and it is at level that requires the application of biocide. |

High
Positive
