Note that the discharge tap should always be left open in an empty tub. If water gets inside the
tank from somewhere when the discharge tap is closed, water can freeze in the pipes and break
parts.
The external stove is emptied at the same time when you empty the water from the tub. Do not
leave water unsupervised/unheated at subzero temperatures. The plastic drain pipes and taps
freeze really easily. In case the exhaust hose/tap has frozen, the tub can be emptied by removing
the stove to lead the water away from the lower hose. In case the stove is frozen, do not light a fire
but rather thaw the stove slowly.
Note! When emptying the tub you shall leave the cover slightly open, so that no vacuum forms in
the tub.
Hygiene
In order to use the same water for a long time, use both chemicals and a filter and other cleaning
solutions if necessary. Only chemicals and the filter can keep the water clean and hygienic for a
long time. Ask more about filters and chemicals from your dealer.
When using swimmable water (not potable water) without any chemicals, the bathing time should
not exceed one hour together with that the heating time of the tub should not exceed 2 h, to avoid
growth of unwanted bacteria. To achieve this, a cover should be used during the heating period.
Chemicals killing bacteria, i.e. chlorine, are for public use. There are oxygen-based chemicals to
replace chlorine for home use and they are suitable for disinfecting small tubs. The dosage
instructions for chemicals can be found in the packages and they should be followed. Excessively
large dosages may cause the corrosion of the tub parts.
NOTE! When using chemicals, the pH of the water should always be monitored and kept in the
given limits, i.e. 7.0-7.6. When using chemicals, the pH usually decreases, which may corrode the
tub parts. The use of trichlorine or other combination tablets in the tub is forbidden, excluding 20 g
tablets whose concentrations are not too high. Use only chemicals recommended by the
manufacturer. Substances in tablet formats shall always be dissolved in the tub using a dispenser,
never directly to the tub.
Do not use swimming pool chemicals in these small tubs. The dosages will be too high
and they will corrode the materials. Remember also that even automatic chemical
devices should be supervised and the water pH and other values should be measured
regularly.
In case the tub is filled with water for exhibition purposes, the water shall always be
chemically treated.
Clean-up
Take care of the cleanliness and hygiene of the tub by washing and drying it carefully and often. We
recommend rinsing the pipes of the stove and the tub after each use. Washing can be made, for
example, with pine soap and cloth or Kirami Bio solution. After emptying and cleaning the tub, leave
the drain tap open to allow water to drain off the pipes.
