It plumbs into the line and attaches to the bonding wire, and it ships with 4 feet of #8 copper bonding wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat galvanic corrosion does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDissimilar metals sitting in the same body of water set up a small current, and the least noble metal in that circuit is the one that gets eaten. Left alone, that is the heater, the light housings and the rails. A zinc anode is deliberately the least noble metal in the loop, so the current attacks the zinc instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it is installed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe anode goes inline on a 2 inch run, slip on both ends, and the anode is attached to the bonding wire so it covers every bonded metal part in the system. This part is sold for new installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpect to replace it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn anode is a wear part by design. It is doing its job when it is wasting away, so it should be inspected on a schedule and changed once it is spent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pool Tool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627739558100,"sku":"PTE-45-1003","price":107.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_449d576b-4cc6-4b23-9cb4-517b4416dc07.png?v=1788727588","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/2-tee-zinc-anode","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
