Before installing the 

MineralPURE 

unit, the copper level should be tested. There may be readings of copper sulfate in the 

water from leached copper piping or from a copper based algaecide. Correct the problem by either locating the copper pipe 
(usually next to a water heater) and balancing the pH, or eliminating any algaecides completely. Shock the pool with an 
extra heavy dose of chlorine to get rid of the algaecides. 

 

If using the Copper/Silver electrode CLE-42 or CLE-44, the table below will allow you to lookup the calculated silver 
content in your water based upon measured copper levels.

When all of the above steps have been completed, it is time to start up the 
system. Open all valves and turn the power on. Check for water leaks and 
all electrical connections for proper and firm connections. Remove the clear 
protective sheet from the control unit. When starting the system, the 
Clearwater Enviro Technologies, Inc. logo should first appear, followed by 
a three-digit number. To get better acquainted with the unit, turn the 
control knob counter-clockwise till the unit reads “OFF”. 

 

Once you have obtained the desired reading, the setting will most likely remain at that value the entire season, or close 
to it. The trick is getting the desired reading quickly. 

 

By turning the control knob clockwise, the unit will read a three-digit number. These are actually 

milliamp (mA) 

readouts 

and go from 

005 

to 

600 

in 5 mA increments. If the readout does not go all the way to 600, chances are the TDS 

level is not over 300 or so. Do not cause any alarm or add salt to the pool unless you are

 not able to obtain the desired 

ion level (more in this section to follow).
