Test Kit Calibration
Prepare your test kit for shipping by removing all tools and test fittings that may be stored with your test kit, we will not need them to perform our tests. We will need your test gauge and hoses. Open all needle and bleed valves to drain water from your test kit prior to packing it; leave the valves open for shipping. If you have an electronic model, make sure the unit is turned off and include the charging adapters with your kit. If your test kit has a carrying case please place the test gauge inside for shipping, it will help protect it during the shipping process. Print and complete the online Test Kit Accuracy Check Request form (hyperlink here) and place it with your test kit.
Packaging for ShipmentIf you will be shipping your test kit, we recommend a box that has a minimum of 6 inches around the kit for impact resistant packing material. It is important to use a quality packing box and packing materials to keep your kit safe during transit.
