HOW THE CHLORINE IS GENERATED

This product is specially designed for above ground pools. It will destroy the
bacteria, oxidize bather organics and control algae, which provide a safe, clean and
comfortable swimming pool.

ommon salt (sodium chloride) is made up of two elements, sodium and chloride.

C
During the installation of your Saltwater System, a measured quantity of salt is
dissolved in the pool water to make it slightly salty. The pool water flows through
the Saltwater System ’s electrolytic cell to produce chlorine. The chlorine dissolves
in the water and instantly starts destroying bacteria and algae. It also oxidizes all
other organic materials.

HOW COPPER IONS ARE GENERATED

Low voltage direct current is applied to the copper electrode, and copper ions are
generated and dissolved instantly in the water. Copper is an effective algaecide,
which will prevent algae from growing in the pool.

SETUP INSTRUCTION

IMPORTANT

The Saltwater System requires a separate filter pump [700~4000 gph

•
(2650~15140 lph)] to drive the water and function properly.

• The Saltwater System must be installed as the last piece of pool
equipment in the water return line to the pool as displayed in Drawing
#1. This location extends the life of the titanium plates.

1. Assemble the above-ground-pool (AGP) and its filter pump according to their

installation instructions.

2. Take the Saltwater System and its accessories out of the packaging.

3. Place the Saltwater System in line after the filter pump.

4. Connect the connector hose (8) to the Saltwater System inlet.

Connecting the system to pump and pool with 1-1/4” (32mm)
connections/hoses:

The saltwater system features 1-1/2” (38mm) connections. It is accordingly
supplied with adaptors A (1) and B (9) for connecting to the small 1-1/4”
(32mm) diameter connections/hoses. Install as follows:
