SECTION 1.0 VALUE AND SAVINGS OF COPPER IONIZATION PROGRAM
Welcome--
You have purchased a chemical free water treatment system that eliminates the need for
chlorine, a system that is state of the art. We are committed to make servicing your pool and
swimming more pleasurable, less time consuming, and more economical to maintain. As a
bonus, you’ll find a chlorine-free pool healthier for you, your family and friends.
Before installing the Ionizer, read these instructions from cover to cover. Write down
any questions you have. If, after reading the entire booklet, you still have questions; PLEASE
CALL US –TOLL FREE. You will be glad you did.
A. Benefits of Adding Copper to Your Lifestyle
The following lists the health benefits mentioned in the article in the February 1989
issue of Better Nutrition Magazine written by contributing Editor Frank Murry.
1. Nerves will fray without copper.
2. Copper strengthens blood vessel walls.
3. Copper is important to energy metabolism.
4. Copper shares anti-inflammatory powers with zinc, which is important in healing.
5. Taste perception may be influenced by copper.
6. Copper helps prevent anemia, bone and skeletal defects, a degeneration of the nervous
system, defects in the color and structure of hair, reproductive problems and abnormal
cardiovascular problems.
7. Copper is the key mineral of collagen and elastin which are essential for tendons and
blood vessels. A diet totally devoid of copper would cause hemorrhaging severe enough
to end life.
8. Women who are deficient in copper and iron are more likely to have problems with
sleeping.
9. Copper is a potent antiulcer agent.
10. Without copper, skin becomes fragile, will break easily, and heal slowly.
11. Without copper, bones can fracture
12. Without copper, blood vessels can leak or burst.
13. Copper deficiency can elevate blood pressure.
14. Copper is important to the functionality of the immune system
15. Copper is necessary to convert beta carotene to vitamin A.
5
16. A copper-deficient diet may cause defective transport of vitamin A from liver to blood.
17. Copper also may play an important role in cancer prevention.
18. Copper is one of the more important antioxidants in the blood stream.
19. Copper in the form of ceruloplasmin keeps iron from rusting within the blood.
B. Copper Ionization is the only way to have healthy water in your pool.
C. You will save 80-85% on your water care expenditures and 80-85% on your water care
time. No more chlorine, shock, algaecides, or stabilizer!
D. Pool liners, paint, vinyl, and plaster last three to five times longer, saving thousands of
dollars.
E. Copper ions are non-irritating to skin and will not burn your eyes.
F. Copper ions are many times more effective, faster acting, and longer lasting than chlorine
in killing algae and bacteria.
SECTION 2.0 ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS AND INSTALLATION
The copper electrode is the only part of the system that has to be installed. It is installed after
the pool filter and before the pool heater (if you have a heater).

2.1 Installation of the Electrode
2.1.1 1.5” Plumbing
You will need to use a 2” to 1.5” reducer bushing (not provided). Take a hacksaw and
cut approximately 10 inches out of the pipe after the filter. The electrode can be installed
horizontally or vertically. Take the male half of each male union, clean them and then cement
them on the bushing/reducer provided (Figure 3). Then, clean and cement the above assembly
component onto to the remaining pipe ends after your pool filter (Figure 4). Slide in the
electrode and hand tighten the female union to the male union.

2.1.2 2” Plumbing
Take a hacksaw and cut approximately 9.5 inches out of the pipe after the filter (11.5
inches for the commercial double electrode). The electrode can be installed horizontally or
vertically. Take the male half of each union and clean and cement them on the remaining
pipe ends. Slide in the electrode and hand tighten the female union to the male union.
2.2 Connecting the Electronics Unit to the Electrode
Locate the male spades found at each side of the electrode (Page 8; Figure 3). Connect
the female plug located at the end of the wire from the electronics unit and it to the male spade
located on the electrode (Figure 4). Attach the unconnected wire for the electronics unit to the
other side of the electrode (Figure 5). It does not matter which wire plugs into which side of
the electrode. The polarity will alternate the current between the two copper bars on the
electrode. Figure 6 illustrates the proper connection for the electronics unit to the electrode.

Question: How does copper get into my pool/spa?
Answer: Your Intec Ionizer will apply a current to the copper electrode and ionize the water. The electrode
will slowly release these copper ions into the water stream. The ions are extremely small and can not be seen
even with a powerful microscope. The ions are so small that they can easily pass though the cell membrane of
algae or bacteria and disrupt their enzyme structure and kill them.

2.3 Electronic System Overview and Specifications
Your new pool ionization system has gone through two separate inspections: (a) by
manufacturing, and then, (b) by the shipping department. If you notice any defects on your
system, please contact our Quality Assurance Department immediately.
Your unit is powered by 110-220 volts (50-60 hertz) and can be plugged into any
standard electrical socket. New modern pool system controller have auxiliary plugs/ports that
can be programmed to the ionizer turn on and off. Copper ions remain active for a long period
of time and you should not have to run the system continuously. These control units may also
be plugged into a timer (available at hardware stores) for maintaining a copper residual. The
use of an extension cord will not affect this system.
If the unit will be connected to an automated controller, please refer to the instruction
manual of that unit and these can be connected to an auxiliary port. Manyof the modern control
panels will even allow for remote access and ability to manipulate run-time programs.
The electronic controllers must be mounted upright on a wall and preferably at a
location underneath the eve of the roof. At no time, should the controller be left laying on a
surface facing upwards. By doing so, the controller could be inundated with water and
void warranties.
