Description
CMP Compact Pool Defender Sacrificial Zinc Anode
The zinc CMP Compact Pool Defender Sacrificial Zinc Anode is attached to the bonding wire to help defend against electrolysis in swimming pools. Zinc Anodes help to protect metal corrosion such as handrails, lights, equipment components, etc. due to electrolysis issues. This is especially common in pools with salt chlorine generators.
An electrical current can be generated in a pool from multiple sources, even when the pool is not running. This current must be controlled to meet new building codes and to prevent corrosive damage to metal pool components. This is a key step in building a quality modern pool. Pool Defender™ products are a simple way to guard the entire pool.
Electrical currents present in the pool are enhanced in saltwater, causing corrosive damage to metal pool parts even when the pump is off.
The zinc anode provides an easier path for electrical current, protecting expensive metal pool components.
Simply and easily replace the inexpensive zinc anode after about half has eroded.

Product shape is much better than the older model that cracked due to the screw in the top.
