Electrical:
The unit MUST be connected to a circuit protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
provided and installed by a licensed electrician and tested periodically (refer to instructions
provided by GFCI manufacturer). Operating the pumps without first filling the bath to above the
jets can cause permanent damage to your equipment. Push the GFCI “test” button into “reset”
mode. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flow or a device
malfunction, indicating the possibility of electrical shock. If this occurs, turn OFF the power and do
not use the bathtub until the source of the problem has been identified and corrected.
NOTE:
One (1) 120V GFCI 20AMP breaker/dedicated line to plug in a single connection.
Water Test:
It is important to test that the Microbubble Therapy System is functioning properly before final in-
wall installation to avoid unnecessary repairs or removal.
A.
Place the tub on a completely flat surface in an area where it may be drained after testing.
B.
Using a clean rag and warm water wipe down seal to insure it is free of debris.
C.
Seal the drains (this can be done with tape) and fill the tub to at least three inches above the highest jet,
or to the bottom of the grab bar if no jets are present.
D.
Allow the water to stand in tub for 30 minutes and then inspect all plumbing and seals for leaks.
E.
Using appropriately rated three-prong extension cords, all plugged in to separate outlets, operate all
electrical components if applicable for another 30 minutes and inspect for leaks again.
