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 comes on when 

the air blower is activated. Even though all air 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 bath and 

plumbing system should be flushed. To do so, close the 

drain and fill the bath with warm water to at least two (2) 

inches [5.1 cm] above the highest jet. Pour in Jason Bath 

System Cleaner and follow the directions on the bottle. DO 

NOT use bleach or other chlorinated cleansers directly on 

the metal trim.

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 ensure 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 equipment.

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, hydrotherapy baths, or showers do not 

become a source of high humidity due to improper 

installations 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 to leak behind the bathtub.

3.  Make sure the plumber properly tests your 

hydrotherapy 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 hydrotherapy system with 

foaming cleaners or soaps. Rinse the bath thoroughly  

after cleaning.
