USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
HUMIDITY
WARNING: Avoid high humidity levels in your home.
Mold, mildew, fungi and bacteria which may be
harmful to health thrive in areas with continued high
humidity levels; therefore, every precaution should be
taken to make sure your plumbing fixtures, including
bathtubs, hydrotherapy baths or showers do not
become a source of high humidity due to improper
installations or leaks.
To avoid having your plumbing fi xtures become a source of
unwanted humidity, please make sure the following steps
are taken prior to installation.
1. Make sure the area where the bathtub or shower is
installed is well vented and allows enough ventila
tion and air circulation to dry the bathroom
environment within a short time after taking a bath
or
shower.
2. If your bath or shower unit is tiled-in, use units with
an integral tile fl ange or make sure a tile fl ange kit
or similar mechanical barriers is installed to prevent
shower spray, splash or overfl ow to leak behind the
bathtub.
3. Make sure the plumber properly tests your hydro
therapy bath before it is roughed in to make sure
there are no leaks and it is installed with proper
access to bath equipment.
4. Make sure that all the plumbing and fi xtures in
the bathroom are in good working order and have
no
leaks.
5. Do not use carpeting or other material or furniture
which can hold moisture in your bathroom.
6. Use disinfectant to clean any bathroom surfaces
which are regularly exposed to moisture.
7. Clean and disinfect humidifi er and dehumidifi ers as
recommended by the manufacturer. Replace the
air
fi lter on the HVAC unit once a month.
8. Clean moldy surfaces as soon as any mold
appears by using a detergent/soapy solution and
appropriate household cleaner. Always use gloves
during cleaning. Dispose of any sponges or rags
used to clean mold.
CLEANING
With minimum care, your acrylic-surfaced bath will retain
its high-luster fi nish for many years. For regular cleaning
use Jason Bath Cleaner or a mild NON-ABRASIVE liquid
detergent solution (i.e. glass cleaner) and a soft, wet
cloth or sponge. Do not run the hydrotherapy system with
foaming cleaners or soaps. Rinse the bath thoroughly after
cleaning.
SURFACE MAINTENANCE
Area with minor scratches or dull surfaces can be restored
by applying commercially available plastic polish (i.e.
Novus Plastic Polish No. 2, available at your Jason dealer),
followed by an application of acrylic paste wax. Buff the
surface with a clean soft cloth. Do not use sandpaper,
steel wool or abrasive rubbing compounds.
If scratches are too deep to rub out, or if the damage pen-
etrates the acrylic surface, consult your dealer for recom-
mendations on surface repair.
AIR HEATER AND AIR TEMPERATURE
The air heater incorporated into the air blower is designed
to preheat the incoming air to body temperature, not to
heat the bath water. The air heater automatically comes
on when the air blower is activated. Even though all air
baths provide preheated air, occasionally some people
with sensitive skin might experience a cold air sensation.
This sensation is caused by the swiftly moving heated air
bubbles blowing on the wet skin. This phenomenon can be
related to the use of a fan for cooling on a hot day. While
the ambient temperature does not change, the moving air
makes you feel cooler. Avoiding this cold air sensation is
among the reasons Jason avoids placing air jets directly
beneath the body. If you experience a cool air sensation,
which is most noticeable during the fi rst few minutes of
an air bath, simply move your body slightly away from the
closest jets.
FLUSHING / SANITIZING
Upon start-up and not to exceed 90 days, your bath and
plumbing system should be fl ushed. To do so, close the
drain and fi ll the bath with warm water to at least two (2)
inches [5.1cm] above the highest jet. Pour in Jason Bath
System Cleaner and follow the directions on the bottle. DO
NOT use bleach or other chlorinated cleansers directly on
the metal trim.
REPAIR
Refer all plumbing or electrical repair to a qualifi ed ser-
vice technician. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE
PROBLEM. This can result in danger of electrical shock or
damage to the unit and will VOID THE WARRANTY. Re-
member, when contacting your dealer or service represen-
tative; always have your serial number, proof of purchase
and model number. This will ensure a quick response on
warranty items. The serial number can be found on the
front page of this manual or on the small card adhered to
the underside of the bath just above the equipment.
ALL WARRANTY REPAIRS MUST BE AUTHORIZED BY
THE MANUFACTURER BEFORE WORK IS STARTED.
