Grounding is one of the basic safety requirements for any electrical equipment. For outdoor whirlpool bathtubs, especially when used outdoors, it is particularly important to ensure that they have a good grounding system.
If air lock occurs, users will notice that the water flow of the outdoor whirlpool bathtub is significantly weakened or even stops completely. Even if the pump is started, the water flow is still very weak and cannot achieve the normal massage effect.
In theory, a 200-gallon outdoor whirlpool bathtub requires a flow rate of approximately 5 to 7 gallons per minute (GPM) to achieve an ideal massage effect, and the water flow pressure should be maintained between 30 and 50 pounds per square inch (psi) to ensure the impact force of the water flow.
Pros of a freestanding whirlpool bathtub: 1. Comfort and hydrotherapy effect 2. Aesthetic design and sense of space 3. Installation flexibility and space adaptability 4. Greater privacy and independence 5. Efficient thermal insulation performance 6. Stronger long-term value
Unlike built-in bathtubs, freestanding whirlpool bathtubs are not fixed to the wall, but rely entirely on the support frame at the bottom of the bathtub to maintain stability. The support frame is usually made of metal or high-strength plastic and has sufficient load-bearing capacity to ensure that the whirlpool bathtub will not tilt or tip over.
Once the power goes out, the first thing to do is to ensure that all electrical equipment in the outdoor whirlpool bathtub is turned off to avoid current surges or system damage after the power is restored.
If you choose to place a whirlpool bathtub on concrete paving tiles, the first consideration is to ensure a stable foundation. In order to improve the bearing capacity and stability of the ground, it is usually necessary to add a solid foundation to the bricks.
Power supply problem is one of the common reasons why outdoor whirlpool tubs cannot start. If the power supply to the whirlpool tub is out of power, the entire device will not work properly. Users first need to check the power outlet, switch and circuit fuse to ensure that the power supply is normal.
The bathtub's filtration system will work for 30 minutes to 1 hour during the impact process to ensure that the water quality meets the hygienic standards. However, the length of the filtration time also depends on the chemical agents used, the type of disinfection system (such as ozone disinfection, ultraviolet disinfection, etc.) and the degree of water pollution.
If you use the whirlpool bathtub frequently every day or every week, the water and air flow in the jets will be more frequent, and the residual dirt will accumulate faster. For frequent users, it is recommended to clean the jets once a month to ensure smooth water flow and avoid clogging.
The air pump will make a certain noise when it is operating normally. Although this sound is not piercing, it should be even and continuous. If you find that the air pump is not very audible, or only intermittently, there may be something wrong with the air system.
