(54) Safety system for a bath


(57) The invention relates to safety system for a bath (1) comprising a detection unit (77) with a controller (7) and a flow sensor (75) which is arranged for measuring a flow of water being supplied to the bath. The sensor is arranged for sending a signal indicative of the measured flow to the controller, and the controller is arranged for determining the total amount of water being supplied to the bath and for calculating the theoretical water level in the bath. When the theoretical water level reaches a predetermined water level, the controller is arranged for terminating the supply of water to the bath and/or discharging the water already in the bath. Preferably the detection unit additionally comprises a level sensor (73) which is arranged for sending a signal indicative of the detected actual water level to the controller. The controller is arranged for comparing the actual water level with the theoretical water level.
