    Hi There, I dont see a use by date on bottle, (the one that is 2.5 ml per 2 litres or something) and I understand that if it gives a reading of less than 3 it is ok. It says the solution, I assume that is the made up in bottle but does not say the concentrate. I know you can test with litmus...

    Something wrong with regulator?

    Strange, that’s what I thought and was fine on other tank even when it was full? Could it be anything to do with the coupler/ valve inside the nut ... not sure what’s it’s called.
