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 to leak 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 NONABRASIVE 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.
