Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0189284A2] An air activated bath system comprises a remote blower (1), a remote on/off switch (3) for activating the blower, ducting (4) from the blower (1) to a manifold (5) with an air control valve (6) adjacent the rim (7) of the bath (8), a plurality of jets or nozzles (9) in the bottom of the bath, piping (10) from the manifold (5) to the jets or nozzles (9), and a safety device (11) adjacent the bath (8) for activating the on/off switch (3). The safety device (11) has a timer switch (12) for activating the blower (1), and a sensor (13) at the bottom of the bath (8) sensitive to the presence of water in the bath and connected to the timer switch (12) so that when the on/off switch (3) is off and the bath drained, the sensor (13) sets a timer switch (12) to activate or re-activate the blower (1) for a preset period sufficient to evacuate all water from the piping (10) below the bath.
