PRODUCT SEARCH »WHIRLPOOL OPERATION
1. Fill the whirlpool to a level equal to at least 1” above the
highest jet.
2. Depress the on/off push button located on the deck of the tub to start the pump. *** Warning: Do not start the pump until the tub has been filled to the specified level, doing so may cause damage to the pump and will void your warranty. ***
3. Once the pump has been turned on, you can adjust the amount of air mixed with water. To adjust the air flow use the master air control which should also be located on the deck of the tub. Rotate the control counter clockwise to increase the amount of air being introduced in the system. Rotate the control clockwise to decrease the amount of air being introduced into the system.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT WHIRLPOOL JETS
All Clarion Bathware whirlpools are equipped with adjustable-flow
jets. The number and style of these adjustable flow jets installed in
your whirlpool varies by model. Adjustable-flow jets are larger than
the other jets that may be found in your tub. They are approximately
3 1/8” in diameter. They will either have a directional eyeball or rotational
insert. Both styles are able to turn approximately 80 degrees in order
to adjust the flow of water coming from the jet. The directional eyeball
style of adjustable flow jet is adjusted by turning the eyeball, and
the rotational style is
adjusted by turning the insert using the three grips molded to
the face of the jet insert.
Little or no flow should be attained by turning the inner part of either style counterclockwise. Maximum flow is attained by turning the inner part of the jets clockwise. Turning the jet either way should be easy and require no force. If you cannot turn the jet, it is adjusted as far as it can be in that direction. Do not force it any further or you will damage the whirlpool.
Your whirlpool may also be equipped with smaller back jets or have a factory installed bubble jet system. Back jets and bubble jets are not adjustable and any attempt to adjust them may damage the whirlpool.
INFORMATION ABOUT OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
In-Line Heater - Your Clarion Bathware whirlpool may have come
with a factory installed in-line heater. The heater is designed only
to maintain the temperature of the water. The heater will automatically
activate when the whirlpool pump is activated. No external switching
is required. The thermostat of the heater is pre-set at 102 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Bubble Jet System - A bubble jet system may have been installed on your Clarion Bathware whirlpool. This system consists of 16 air injector jets installed around the perimeter of the tub. Heated air is injected into the whirlpool through these jets. This system is controlled by an electronic control system found on the deck of your tub.
Aromatherapy - You may have selected to have your whirlpool equipped with aromatherapy. This option involves integrating a scent dispersal system into the internal piping of the whirlpool. Your aromatherapy equipped whirlpool came with a sampler kit of scents and a wicking strip. Apply some scent to the wicking strip and insert it into the aromatherapy canister on the deck of the whirlpool. Information is included with your whirlpool describing how to order more scent for your aromatherapy system.
Chromatherapy - Your whirlpool may also include mood lighting or surround lighting both of which fill the tub with different colors. The mood light or surround lighting are turned on using the supplied push button on/off. These lights use LED technology and under normal use, should never need changed.
Ozone Whirlpool Sanitation System - A whirlpool sanitation system may have been installed on your whirlpool. This system consists of an ozone generator that is attached to the air supply for the whirlpool jets. Ozone is a 100% safe, natural chemical that is a very effective sanitizer. When the whirlpool pump is started, the ozone generator mixes ozone with the water.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
The appearance of your whirlpool can be maintained with any tub
and tile cleaning product that is non-abrasive and does not include
ammonia as an ingredient.
Clarion Bathware whirlpool systems are designed to be some of the most
sanitary on the market. However, no whirlpool system can ever be completely
sanitary without regular cleaning. The whirlpool system should be cleaned
weekly using household bleach or an approved cleaner available at many
retail stores. Fill the tub with warm water to a level at least 1” above
the highest whirlpool jet and add 1 cup of bleach. Run the system for
5 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes. Drain the tub and re-fill with cold
water. Restart the system for 10 minutes then drain. Always use caution
when using chorine based products in conjunction with other cleaning products.
The possibility of harmful fumes could result.
Failing to perform the required weekly cleaning of your whirlpool system could result in a buildup of bacteria in the system. Clarion Bathware is not responsible for any claims, either in the operation of the system, or any adverse health effects, if these weekly cleaning cycles are not performed.
WARNING
Bath oils or other petroleum based bath products are not recommended
for use in your whirlpool. These products have been shown to increase
the possibility of bacteria and organic growth within the system. Bubble
bath should be used sparingly because the action of the whirlpool system
will greatly increase the amount of bubbles.
