Taylor R-0013-F Cyanuric Acid (Stabilizer) Reagent – 1 Quart Refill
The Taylor R-0013-F is a 1 quart (32 oz) refill bottle of Taylor’s Cyanuric Acid (CYA) Reagent used for measuring stabilizer levels in pool and spa water. This reagent is used in the classic Taylor turbidity (cloudiness) CYA test found in many professional and residential Taylor kits. Maintaining the correct CYA level helps protect chlorine from sunlight while avoiding over-stabilization that can reduce chlorine effectiveness.
Key Features
- Tests cyanuric acid (stabilizer) using the Taylor turbidity method
- Large 1 quart size for frequent testing, service techs, or seasonal stocking
- Made for use with Taylor test kits that include a CYA mixing bottle and view tube
- Helps dial in stabilizer levels for clearer water and more consistent sanitizing performance
What It’s Used For
- Chlorine pools & salt pools: CYA helps reduce chlorine loss to UV sunlight
- Troubleshooting: Confirms whether stabilizer is too low (rapid chlorine loss) or too high (chlorine becomes less effective)
- Routine maintenance: Useful when adding stabilizer, draining/refilling, or after heavy rain/backwashing

How the Test Works (Overview)
- Pool water is mixed with R-0013 reagent in the CYA mixing bottle.
- The mixture becomes cloudy in proportion to the cyanuric acid level.
- The sample is then poured into the view tube to determine the CYA reading per the kit’s markings.
Storage & Handling
- Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
- Avoid freezing and prolonged high heat exposure.
- Do not contaminate the bottle opening or cap with pool water or other reagents.

Maintenance Tips
- For best accuracy, perform the CYA test in consistent lighting and follow your kit instructions closely.
- Rinse the mixing bottle and view tube with fresh water after use and let them air-dry.
- If you add stabilizer, allow time for it to dissolve and circulate fully before retesting (follow the stabilizer product directions).
- Replace reagents that are old, heat-damaged, or have been stored improperly to keep results reliable.
