Spa Bath Installation Guide
Location
First check that there will be adequate pump access before proceeding with installation. A minimum of
300mm square unobstructed clearance is needed if pump servicing or removal is necessary. If sufficient
room is not made available the equipment
warranty
will be nullified. When the bath is located in the correct
position and the bottom of the bath is
fully supported
by the floor and is sitting level, fix bath in place,
connect the waste outlet and fit taps.
Electrical
In the interests of safety, we advise that a qualified electrician connects the pump, in accordance with
relevant electrical standards.
The pumps supplied are suitable for connection to a nominal
240V 50HZ power supply
and are equipped
with a lead and three-pin plug.
This product must be installed so that it can be turned off
independently
of the on/off air switch and/or touch
pad (a standard on/off power point provides this).
Installers Responsibility
Before enclosing the bath you are required to water test and check bath for satisfactory operation to ensure
that damage has not occurred during installation. To protect your
factory warranty
you must observe this
instruction.
Water Testing
Before filling the bath with water and testing, be sure that no debris or materials are left in the bath, which
may enter the pump and cause an obstruction to the flow or damage to the motor.
Check all pipe work and fittings are properly sealed and firmly fixed.
Fill the bath to at least 100mm above the jet and check pipe work for leaks.
Activate the pump, by pushing the air switch button and/or touch pad switch.
Run the pump for 10 to 15 minutes, checking for leaks during this period.
Now proceed to enclose the bath ensuring that access to the pump has been provided for.
Cutting & Drilling
Use a fine tooth hacksaw very carefully if the acrylic needs to be cut. Smooth edges with fine ‘wet and dry’ glass
paper and burnish with an abrasive cleaner such as ‘Brasso’. Small holes can be drilled with a twist drill, BUT the
cutting edge should be backed off with an oilstone to prevent ‘grabbing’. Use a fine hole saw for larger holes.

Operation Guide For A Clearlite Spa Bath
(Hydro or Whisper Jets)
When filling the bath it is recommended to partially fill with cold water to allow the bath to gradually adapt to the
temperature. Also the heated pump features a safety protection device, which cuts out the heater if water
temperature exceeds 50 degrees.
Electronic Touch Pad
For the pump and heater to operate the
Power
light on the
control touch pad must be on.
Pushing the
Spa
button will start or stop the pump and heat
together.
The
Eco Heat
button enables the heater to be turned off/on
while the pump continues to operate
.
Air Controller (Hydro and Mini Jets Only)
Opening and closing of the air controller determines the
amount of air drawn into the jet stream.
When the controller is open the jet is drawing maximum air
creating a vigorous massage.
When the controller is closed, only water comes through for a
gentle soft massage.
Hydro Jet Option
These jets can be adjusted to suit individual preference.
To adjust the direction of the jet, use the tip of your index
finger on the edge of the eyeball to change direction or
angle.
To obtain maximum water flow, turn the jet face clockwise.
To obtain minimum water flow, turn the jet anti clockwise.
Whisper Jet Option
These jets are designed to create a flow of water and small
bubbles down under the bather. This creates a light soothing
massage without the direct force of a hydro jet.
The jets are not adjustable.
To remove the jet cover, push a thin piece of wire into the hole
located near the top of cover and then slide the cover up. To
refit, slide the cover down until it clips onto the jet body

normal jet. Simply turning the jet faceplate will vary water flow
through the jet. This means you can turn up or down some or all
of the Lumbar & Foot Mini Jets.

of air drawn into the jet streams of the Lumbar & Foot Mini Jets.
When the controller is open the jet is drawing maximum air
creating a vigorous massage.
When the controller is closed, only water comes through for a
gentle soft massage.
