INTRODUCTION:
Whirlpool baths must be installed by trained personnel able to demonstrate to the
relevant authorities their knowledge and ability in the application of health and
safety regulations i.e. electricity and water supplies and waste water disposal. The
manufacturer provides training for technical assistance staff and therefore you are
advised to contact an authorised technical assistance centre for the purposes of
installation.
This symbol indicates important product instructions or important safety
information.
INSTALLATION:
IMPORTANT!
Before you start to assemble and install the product, carefully read through all the
instructions. Unpack the components and check that nothing is missing and that there
are no damaged or faulty components, remove the transparent protective film.
All components requiring maintenance (e.g. pump, electrical components, etc) must
remain accessible once final installation is complete.
Do not support the bath using the hoses during transport.
N.B.: This product is designed for installation on finished walls and floors.
Warranty claims must be produced with the purchase invoice and the product
assembling instructions.
The drawings and illustrations in this manual are provided for information purposes
only.
The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes and improvements without prior
notice.
INSTALLATION OF BATH WITH FRAME:
Follow the sequence of drawings given in this manual very carefully when installing a
bath with frame.
INSTALLATION OF ENCLOSED BATH:
Before building the enclosing walls, it is best to position the bath and make the required
connections. The wall can extend inwards under the lip of the bath by not more than
1.5 cm. The drain must be connected in such a way that the bath can be pulled out of
the enclosure for maintenance, when necessary. To facilitate this operation do NOT fix
enclosed type baths to the floor. In this case, fix the bath by applying silicone on all four
sides (see siliconing illustration on page 23).
Inspection panel required.
OPERATING TEST:
An operating test must be performed following installation. Check that the bath is
clean.
Fill the bath with water at an infeed temperature of 40°C (± 5°C) up to a level above
the highest nozzle to allow the system to function.Switch on the system and run it for
10 minutes. Switch OFF the whirlpool function but do not empty the bath and after 10
minutes check all the hoses, couplings, etc. for any leaks.
The test should be repeated following any adjustments or substitutions. Backflow of
water towards the mains water supply must be avoided to ensure conformity with EN
1717 when filling the bath. Therefore if the taps are fitted so that the water fills the bath
from above the top of the bath then the taps must be positioned (at least in terms of
height) in accordance with the diagrams shown from page 15.
If the system involving a combined water inlet and overflow outlet is used to fill the
bath, a water outlet spout consisting of a non-return valve (not supplied) must be fitted
between the combined tap water inlet point and the delivery system located on the
discharge column.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTING:
During use, small organic particles are deposited in the whirlpool pipes and if not
treated may lead to proliferation of bacteria in the system. For perfect hygiene, you
should treat the system with specific products available from our Service Centres (see
updated list on our site www.novellini.com under the heading "Service") or dealers
specialising in products for whirlpool baths. For temporary treatment you can use a
benzalkonium chloride based liquid disinfectant (e.g. Dettol). How to clean the bath.
You should also perform a specific treatment if the bath is left unused for long periods.
If the bath is used by more than one person consecutively, you are recommended to
disinfect after each cycle.
You should never use or take a bath in the water used for disinfecting.
The first time you disinfect, fill the disinfectant tank with a specific product
or Dettol. Tank capacity 1 litre.
HOW TO USE YOUR WHIRLPOOL BATH CORRECTLY:
The benefits of a whirlpool massage:
The swirling water of a whirlpool bath is naturally soothing and offers many therapeutic
benefits. In spas, hydrotherapy is used to stimulate blood circulation, relax muscles and
restore tone to the skin. Basically, it consists in injecting air into controlled jets of water
of varying intensity directed at the body. The jet of warm water and air bubbles against
the body dilates blood vessels and increases the flow of blood to the heart. In addition,
the continuous jet of water has a massaging effect on the muscles and dilates skin
pores, promoting the removal of toxins and helping to hydrate the surrounding tissue.
Hydromassage is widely used by sports people to relieve tired muscles after strenuous
physical activity, producing a pleasant sense of relaxation and well-being. The jet
nozzles can be adjusted to direct the jets at the parts of the body where you want
to concentrate the massaging action. The temperature of the bath water must never
exceed 45°C. The maximum benefits are obtained with a temperature of 36°-37°C.
ADJUSTING JET NOZZLES:
Turn the jet nozzles (C) as required. The nozzles can be turned in any direction. Make
sure that the nozzles are not clogged and are not directed upwards (otherwise water
will be splashed out of the tub when the system is switched on). Fill the tub until the
water is well over the level of the jet nozzles (see illustration). After getting into the
bath, the water level must be as shown in the illustration, otherwise the jets system
may not start. The system features a level sensor which prevents the jets from switching
on if there isn't enough water in the bath. When the jets system is on, do not use
foaming agents such as bubble baths, soap, etc.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING:
The bath is made of acrylic and must be cleaned using a liquid detergent and a soft cloth
or sponge. Use a good quality household liquid detergent. To prevent scale deposits,
wipe dry using a chammy leather or a soft lint-free cloth that removes stubborn
deposits without leaving traces. Limescale deposits may be removed using specific
detergent products. To restore shine to the acrylic surface polish with an ordinary wax
polish such as car wax.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, ALCOHOL OR ALCOHOL BASED PRODUCTS, ACETONE
OR OTHER SOLVENTS.
Warning: use of detergents other than those recommended may damage the bath
and/or the whirlpool equipment.
SURFACE SCRATCHES:
Small surface scratches can be removed using wet emery paper (grade 1000) and then
smoothing the surface with abrasive paste. Once the scratch has been removed, restore
surface shine using wax polish.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
In the event of a problem, perform the following checks before activating the warranty
or contacting qualified staff.
If the jet system does not start:
• If the circuit breaker has tripped, reset it and try switching on the jet system again.
• If the pump does not start when the water level is well above the nozzles.
• Check to ensure that the cut-out is turned on.
• Check if an alarm has been raised (see menu).
