ECONOMY POOL SUNSHINE IONIZER MODEL SPE

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for purchasing the Economy Sunshine Ionizer.  Carefully and completely read these instructions before
installing.  Note: This model may also be installed in a spa.

1.  Before installing the Sunshine Ionizer the pool should be clean, sanitized, pH balanced, free of algae, and the 

filter cleaned.

2.  Turn off the power to the pool equipment.
3.  Install the cell after the filter.  If this is not possible then before the filter is OK.  See FIG. 1.  The electrode cell 

must be at the bottom or side so that no air will be trapped in the cell.  The black line on the cell must always be
inline with the water flow.  See FIG. 2.  Cut a 2 ¾” section of pipe out where the electrode cell will be installed 
if your existing pipe is 2” PVC.  Cut a 3 ½” section out if your existing pipe if it is 1 ½” PVC.  Glue the1½” x 
2” bushings into the 2” tee using PVC glue if your existing pipe is 1½”.  Do not use the bushings if your 
existing pipe is 2” PVC.  Glue the tee in place using PVC glue making sure it is installed so no air will be 
trapped in the cell.  See FIG. 3.  If you are not sure how to install the cell you should have a swimming pool 
contractor do it for you.

4.  Plug the power supply into a 120-volt AC outlet in a dry location that has power only when the pool filter pump

is running.  If you do not have an outlet that is on only when the pump is on you will need one installed.

5.  For 240 volt operation the switch on the back of the power supply must be switched to 240 volts and plugged 

into a 240 volt power source.

6.  The power supply in for indoor use only.  To use outdoors use a weatherproof outlet cover over the power 

supply, available at most hardware stores.
