REMOTE MOUNTING OF AIR BLOwER

The Jason AirMasseur

®

 system has been factory installed 

following E.T.L. guidelines. During installation, if remote 
mounting of the blower and its control box is desired, follow 
these procedures.
Note:  Do not remote mount the blower and control box more 
than 15 feet [457 cm] away from the air inlet of the bath. 
Choose a location as close as possible to the bath to assure 
maximum efficiency.

1. 

Determine layout.

  The installer is to determine the layout 

of the piping, exact remote mount location, and service 
access before beginning any work.  

–  Use 1.5” [38 mm] ABS or PVC plastic tubing. 

–  Locate  the  control  box  with  the  blower  in  an  area 

accessible for servicing.  

–  To insure proper functioning of the system, avoid remote 

mounting in a location which requires more than six 
(6) piping direction changes. A 90° direction change 
should be made up of two 45° elbows for maximum 
efficiency.
