I ordered a master freshwater testing kit last week and I expect it to be delivered some time this week, however, the weather is turning frigid, and I was wondering if the chemicals were to freeze, would the test still be reliable?

Hmmm.. that's a good question! Maybe try the API website and send them a question. They're pretty good about getting right back to you.

Thanks for the tip Freshy. I called them and they said there would be no problem; just let the liquids thaw at room temp prior to use.
that is a relief.

Cool! (no pun intended..LOL)

Just remember to shake the HECK out of nitrate bottle #2 before you use it and to shake your completed nitrate test-tube per the instructions.

I also asked this question on the Amazon website where I purchased the kit. I got one person saying yes it would still be reliable , and 2 people said NO it would not be. I have no idea who to believe now!

If you talked directly to API, that's who I'd believe.
