MicroSilk Unit

The  MicroSilk  generates  oxygen  rich  microbubbles  that  fill 
the bath. MicroSilk units provided on Jason baths are factory 
tested when assembled and again retested after installation 
on the bath.

MicroSilk Suction Fitting

 

The MicroSilk suction fitting is designed to provide a 
safe water return to the pump.  The suction fitting has an 
internal filter screen and an external suction cover pre-filter 
made from Lycra® material.  The suction cover pre-filter 
is designed to allow for easy cleaning.  If the pre-filter 
becomes soiled or dirty, it should be removed and cleaned 
with soap and water.  Periodically the internal filter screen 
should be removed and cleaned with soap and water.  The 
suction cover can be removed by unscrewing the single 
Philips head screw in the center of the suction cover (See 
the 

USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

 section of this 

owner’s manual for cleaning instructions).  This will keep the 
system running properly.  

 

Never operate the system without the pre-filter, internal 

filter screen and suction cover installed.

Filling and Draining

 

Close the drain and fill the bath with water at least two (2) 
inches (50mm) above the jets. The inlet temperature should 
not exceed 40°C (104°F) as this could damage the acrylic 
surface. When bath is in use, turn the unit Off before draining 
the water. The bath unit and its plumbing are designed to 
drain after each use whether used as a hydrotherapy bath, 
soaking bath, or just taking a shower.

NOTE:

 

If the unit fails to operate, check the breaker 

panel to insure that the circuit breaker is on. Check 

the GFCI by testing and resetting it. Also check the 

water level in the bath; it must be above the water 

level sensor located on the sidewall of the bath for the 

pump to operate. If the unit still fails to operate, refer 

to the Trouble Shooting Guide section on page 15 of 

this manual. If the unit still fails to operate and is out of 

warranty, contact an authorized service technician for 

repair. If the unit is within the warranty period, contact 

JASON Technical Services at 800-255-5766. DO NOT
