THERMAL AIR
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS:
WARNING: When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the folowing:
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Connect only to a circuit protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. Grounding is
required. All electrical connections should be made by a licensed electrician. Installation of Hydro Systems bathtubs must meet
all applicable codes and regulations.
– 1 HP Blower - A dedicated 120v 20 amp GFCI protected electrical circuit is requirred for tubs with the standard 1 HP 120v Blower.
• Remote Mounting Blower – Due to the limited space between the inner and outer shell on all of The Maestro
Collection Freestanding tubs, the blower must be remote mounted. In addition to the air pipe there are two
electrical connections between the tub and the blower. Both connections and the air pipe exit through the bottom
end of the bath. It is always desirable to remote mount the air blower as close to the tub as possible to minimize loss
of heat. Pipe insulation may be used on the inlet air line to minimize heat loss.
• It is not recommended that the blower be mounted over 8 feet away from the tub. The supplied wiring
between the tub and the blower is approximately 10 feet long.
• Remote blower locations – There are several locations where the blower can be located. There must be a GFCI
electrical outlet within 2 feet of the blower. The blower is approximately 9.25 inches long and 8 inches in diameter
and 5” high. Substantial ventilation is required to keep the blower from overheating and to supply the large volume
of air being sent to the tub. Never wrap insulation around the blower as this will cause the equipment to fail. The
best location is directly below the tub in the floor joists. This location keeps the distance short and offers easy access
from below. If the room below has a finished ceiling, there are many fixtures such as HVAC return that can be used to
camouflage the access panel in the ceiling. Other possible locations include an adjacent closet, vanity or a same
level attic. Every home is different and there may be other desirable locations. Keep in mind that the blower must be
accessible for any future servicing.
• Remote Blower Kit – If the blower is not mounted directly adjacent to the tub, a remote blower kit will be required.
The kit consists of: extension pipe, couplings and cable. Please indicate the necessary length of pipe and cable
required.
FIXTURES
•
No Fixtures can be mounted on the tub deck. Floor and wall-mounted fixtures are required.
•
Wall-Mounted – The position of the tub and the reach of the spout are critical. Pay special attention to the spout
reach when choosing your fixtures. Be careful to ensure the spout will extend out far enough to clear the tub deck
and the falling water will not hit too high up the side wall of the tub and splash.
•
Floor-Mounted – Some freestanding fixtures must be anchored to the tub drain for stabilization.
