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,
therapy baths, or showers do not become a source of high humidity
due to improper installation or leaks.
To avoid having your plumbing fixtures 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 ventilation 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 flange or make sure a tile flange kit or a similar
mechanical barrier is installed to prevent shower spray,
splash, or overflow from leaking behind the bathtub.
3. Make sure the plumber properly tests your 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 fixtures in the bathroom
are in good working order and have no leaks.
5. Do not use carpeting or other materials 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 humidifier and dehumidifiers as
recommended by the manufacturer. Replace the air filter
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 finish 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 air system with foaming cleaners
or soaps. Rinse the bath thoroughly after cleaning.
SURfACE MAINTENANCE
Areas 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
penetrates the acrylic surface, consult your dealer for
recommendations 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 turns on when
the air blower is activated.
Even though all AirMasseur
®
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 first
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 AirMasseur
®
bath and plumbing system should be flushed. Follow the
Sani-Design™ Cleaning instructions provided with the
bath.
REPAIR
Refer all plumbing or electrical repair to a qualified service
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.
Remember, when contacting your dealer or service
representative; always have your serial number, proof
of purchase, and model number. This will insure 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 back of the bath just above the blower.
