ELECtRICAL CONNECtIONS

A separate circuit, which must be protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), is required. Install a duplex outlet
to the studwall underneath the bathtub, at least 4 inches (102
mm) above the floor or according to local building and electrical
codes. The duplex outlet is not provided.
DANgER: Risk of electric shock. Connect only to a circuit
protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.

RELOCAtINg thE BLOWER MOtOR

The 800W units come with a fused control box. For
convenience and/or accessibility, the blower motor (and fused
control box on 800W units) can be installed in a remote location.
IMPORtANt: Normally the Ozone equipment is connected to
the Blower equipment. Because the Ozone equipment should be
kept with the air bath, you need to provide a dedicated GFCI at
15 A for the Ozone equipment.
NOtE: The blower motor (and fused control box on 800W units)
must be relocated as a unit.
A separate circuit, which must be protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), is required in the remote location.
Electrical connections should be performed by a licensed
electrician. The remote location must be service accessible.
The total length of the air pipe must not require more than 15'
(4.57 m) of piping and 6 directional changes. Pipe diameter
must be 1-1/2" (38 mm) or larger. Choose a space as close
to the bath as possible so the system works as efficiently as
possible. This space must be at least 30 cubic feet (2.79 m 2 )
and the blower must be mounted at least 2" (50.8 mm) above
the floor and 2" (50.8 mm) minimum away from any wall. The
blower must not be installed in an attic area.
NOtE: Do not remove the inverted U and check valve, see
figures below. Do not glue piping to the blower. Blower is
attached to the piping via a screw. Glue the air pipe and let set
overnight before attaching the blower with screw.
NOtE: Installing the Blower in a remote location will reduce
system efficiency.
CAUtION: It is imperative to let the glued blower air pipe set
overnight as there may be fumes from the glue that could be
ignited if not allowed to dissipate.
Provide adequate ventilation in the remote location for cooling
the motor and to supply sufficient air for the blower. The intake
of the blower must not be blocked, restricted or have any debris
around it that can potentially be sucked into blower. Insulation on
the air pipe length can reduce heat loss.
NOtE: Relocated blower requires a service access for the
control box and blower.
