6. FILLING AND EMPTYING THE SPA
Never use the air blower circuit to fill the spa.
The bath can be connected to the water and sewage systems
permanently or the bath can be filled and drained by means of flexible
hoses disconnected after each operation. The flexible hose set of the
bath includes a T-pipe with a 1/2” coupling for filling of the bath through
the hydro-massage jets. The fixed piping system includes release valves
located near the skimmer-filter; at the outlets of which fixed or removable
hose connection with the sewage system should be provided.
It is recommended that the bath is permanently connected to the
sewage system due to the risk of water overflowing through the
emergency overflow system.
7. VENTILATION
The possible high temperature of the water in the spa (approximately
39 ºC) leads to steam condensation.
The spa room must have adequate ventilation. If it does not, it is
recommended that you install a dehumidifier to keep the air humidity
at a constant temperature and prevent steam from condensing on the
ceiling and on the floor.
For the correct maintenance of the wood, the relative air humidity in the
room must be kept below 65% when the spa is not being used.
During use and due to the evaporation caused by the hydromassage
and the movement of the water, this value normally reaches 90 or 95%.
The air humidity can be kept constant by the use of fans controlled
by hygrostats or dehumidifiers adapted to the size of the room. Your
installer or distributor can offer you advice on this. If the room has air
conditioning, the condenser is not necessary. If the spa is outdoors or
in an open space, these apparatuses are not necessary.
