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.
