Safety Instructions Pertaining to a Risk of Fire, Electric
Shock, or Injury to Individuals
|
Warning:
When using this unit, basic precautions should always
be followed, including the following: |
|
 |
|
|
|
Read
and follow all instructions. |
 |
Danger:
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children or
infirmed individuals to use this unit unless they are
supervised at all times! |
- Use
this unit only for its intended use as described in this
manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
-
NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening.
- Do
not operate the unit without the UL listed safety guard
in place. The safety guard is located over the intake (suction
device of your unit). This guard reduces the potential
hazard
of hair or body entrapment under the water line. If your
safety guard should come loose, lost or damaged, contact
Watertech immediately and a replacement will be shipped
to you the same day. Keep hair and body away from
the suction guard when the pump/motor is running.
-
Anyone under the care of a physician, pregnant women, or
individuals in poor health, should consult their physician
BEFORE using this whirlpool.
-
The recommended length of a whirlpool bath is approximately
5-10 minutes. However, if you become nauseous,
dizzy, feel uncomfortable or develop a headache get
out of the
bath immediately and cool down. If symptoms persist
get medical attention at once and do not use the unit
again
until approved to do so by your physician.
-
Do not use this or any whirlpool bath or spa immediately
after eating or while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Electrical
Installation Instructions
1.
Warning: When using electrical products, basic precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
- Each
motor and heater require separate 115 VAC GROUND FAULT
CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI). The GFCI should be provided
by the installer and should be tested on a regular
basis to ensure safe operation of the unit.
- Pumps/motors
used are either 2HP - 8.5 AMP, 3HP - 10 AMP and 13.9
AMP
- Electric
heaters are 1.5 KW 13 AMP
2.
To test the GFCI:
3.
We install a pneumatic air switch which
is non-electric and operated by push button air plunger.
The switch provides
the convenience of turning your unit on or off while in the
water. This switch comes factory installed. We also offer
an optional electric switch.
4.
Caution: NEVER test your pump/motor when the tub is dry and water
is not at least 1" above your jets. Testing the motor when
the tub is dry could result in damage to the pump/motor with
the possibility of voiding any and all warranties.

All Instructions Before Installing!
Your
Watertech Whirlpool Bath has been tested at the Watertech
manufacturing facility in Johnson City, Tennessee,
USA. DO NOT
change
the pump/motor location after receiving your tub. Doing
so could result in system malfunctions and will
void
the warranty. |
Before
Installing
- Inspect
the tub carefully! Damage during shipping should be reported
to Watertech immediately at 1-800-289-8827. Do Not install
a damaged tub - doing so will void your warranty.
-
Factory defects or damage MUST be reported to Watertech
before the tub is installed. Damage after installation is
not warranteed.
-
NEVER lift your unit by the plumbing. Doing so could damage
the pipe system and create leakage.
-
Pre-test your tub BEFORE placing it in your bathroom. Your
Watertech Whirlpool Bath goes through rigorous testing
at
the factory but shipping and handling could damage
the unit or work the pipe system loose. Therefore,
after
receiving your tub and before moving the unit into your
bathroom to install, place the tub in an area where
water
spillage can occur (driveway or yard). Fill the tub with
water to about 2-3 inches
above the jets. Plug the motor into a GFCI outlet. While
the motor is running, check all pipes and fittings
for moisture
(the best way to do this is by taking a piece of Kleenex
tissue and rub it over all pipes and fittings. Any
moisture
means there is leakage at that fitting).
-
REMEMBER all local and state building codes MUST be met
when installing your unit. ALL electrical connections MUST
be made by a LICENSED ELECTRICIAN!

Operating
Instructions
- Your
tub is equipped with ADJUSTABLE JETS. To increase the
water pressure, turn the jet nozzle on each jet in a
counterclockwise direction. The water pressure can be
decreased by turning the nozzle clockwise. However, NEVER
cut off all the jets in your system -- doing so could
damage your pump/motor.
-
On-Off. Each Watertech Bath comes with a pneumatic air
switch. Push the button once to cut on and again to
cut off. No electrical current is used on this device
and it is totally safe.
-
If the pump does not start when the air switch
is pushed, the circuit breaker may have tripped to the
OFF position. Reset the circuit breaker, then turn
it on
again.
-
Although all Watertech Whirlpool Baths are 100% self draining,
you should periodically clean and disinfect the inner
walls
of the pipe system with dishwasher detergent (granular,
one cup), household bleach (one cup) or white vinegar
(one
cup). Just fill your tub with water over the jets and pour
one of the aforementioned products in the tub. Turn
the
system on and allow it to run for five minutes. Turn the
system off and let the solution soak for at least
20 minutes.
Drain the bath completely,
refill
with cold water, turn the system on and allow the water
to rinse the system, then drain.
By doing this periodically, your whirlpool system will
remain free of any soap or oil buildups. And remember,
with a Watertech whirlpool bath you CAN use bath oils,
bubble
baths and other bathing accessories because our tubs are
100% self draining and hold no water in the system after
you shut the system off and drain.
If
you have problems installing your unit, call Watertech at
1-800-289-8827 and we will be more than happy to guide
you through the process!
