Mortar is required when the subfloor is not smooth and
8.
level; when additional sound insulation is desired; or when
the bath is installed in a drop-in application. In alcove
installations, a bed of mortar may also be recommended
to aid in leveling the bath.
NOTe: Do not use a sand bed
to install or level the bath.
Secure the bottom of all equipment mounts so that it
9.
is level with the bottom of the bath.
Position the bath
in the area of intended installation and cut the equipment
support strap(s) to allow the equipment to rest firmly on the
floor. We recommend securing the equipment mounts to
the floor with removable fasteners for ease of servicing.
protect the acrylic bath surface from damage during
10.
installation with a suitable material, i.e., cardboard
and/or plastic film.
The acrylic surface of this bath has
been provided with a protective film which helps protect the
bath during shipment and installation. Additional protection
may also be required to protect the acrylic surface during
installation. If the bath is tiled in, remove the necessary
portion of the film when installing the tile.

The Jason AirMasseur system has been factory installed fol-
lowing E.T.L. Guidelines. During installation, if remote mounting
of the blower is desired or required, the following procedures
should be followed.
NOTe:
Do not remote mount the blower more than 15
feet (457cm) away from the air inlet of the bath. Choose
a location as close as possible to the bath to assure
maximum efficiency.
The installer must determine the layout of the piping; exact
1.
remote mount location; and service access before begin-
ning any work. Use 1.5” (38mm) ABS or PVC plastic tub-
ing. Locate the blower in an area accessible for servicing.
NOTe: A 15 foot extension replacement cable set can
be purchased from your Jason supplier, if needed. To
insure proper functioning of the system, avoid remote
mounting in a location which requires more than six
(6) piping direction changes. A 90° direction change
should be made up of two 45° elbows for maximum
efficiency.
If the blower has been factory installed, disconnect the
2.
blower from the air bath plumbing by removing the two
(2) screws on the check valve outlet and disconnect the
short piece of flex pipe between the check valve and the
elbow by removing the two (2) screws in the elbow. (Omit
this step on baths where the blower is not factory installed
and remote mounting is required.)
Install the blower in the remote location. The remote mount
3.
locations’ ambient air temperature should remain at ap-
proximately 22°C (72°F) for optimum air heating.
Make sure the blower is well ventilated. The blower mount
4.
should be attached firmly to the floor. Piping between the
remote blower location and the bath can be insulated us-
ing a minimum of 1/2” (13mm) thick insulation. Attach new
piping to the elbow of the existing piping.

NOTe: The bath is designed for indoor use only. The
electrical equipment must not be exposed to direct
or indirect water or moisture contact. The electrical
equipment must also be protected from dust and other
airborne debris before, during, and after installation.
electrical Service:
1.
A licensed electrician must provide
the “dedicated” electrical service protected by a GFCI.
The location of the GFCI must be at least five (5) feet
(152 cm) away from the inside surface of the bath,
accessible for regular testing. Use copper conductors only.
DANGeR — RISK OF eleCTRIC ShOCK: Connect
only to a circuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). In the unlikely occurrence of
a current imbalance in the power conductors,
the GFCI will interrupt the power to the bath.
