J-SHA™II
Whirlpool Bath
Installation / Operating Instructions
PRECAUTIONS
Do not operate the whirlpool system unless the bath is filled with water to at least 2" above the highest jet.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
Do not use oil-based bath additives in your whirlpool bath.
When cleaning your bath, do not use abrasive substances which will damage the bath's surface.
To prevent discoloration of the acrylic finish, do not fill the bath with water in excess of 140°F (60°C).
The whirlpool system should be purged at least twice a month. For your convenience, we have developed a
plumbing system cleaner (Systems Clean™) specifically for whirlpool baths. For availability call 1-800-288-4002.
Use this unit only for its intended purpose as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended
by the manufacturer.
This unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the
test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to
operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing, indicating a possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this
unit. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a qualified electrician before using.
A pressure wire connector is provided on the exterior of the motor to permit connection of an No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm)
solid copper bonding conductor between this unit and all other electric equipment and exposed metal in the vicinity,
as needed to comply with local requirements.
This unit should be installed by a licensed electrician and grounded.
For built-in and drop-in units, install to permit access for servicing.
Note: This is a professional grade product. A knowledge of construction techniques, plumbing and electri-
cal installation according to codes are required for proper installation and user satisfaction. We recom-
mend that a licensed contractor perform the installation of all Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath products. Our war-
ranty does not cover improper installation related problems.

J-Sha II Owner's Manual
Framing and Support
The floor structure beneath the bath must be able to support a total weight of bath, water, and bather.
If the subfloor is level, no other preparation is necessary. You can proceed to install the bath. If the subfloor is
not level, you MUST level the entire surface prior to installing the bath. Use a floor leveling compound. Do not
use mortar, plaster or minimal expansion structural foam to set the bath as this will interfere with bath components
on the bottom of the bath. Both sides of a joint or splice of subfloor should be level to each other.
The rim of the bath is not designed to support weight. If finish material is to overlap or contact the bath, the added
weight must be fully self-supporting.
The protective film liner inside the bath is used to prevent damage to the finish from shoes, tools, etc.
during installation. Before installation, remove liner to inspect for any defects, reapply and do not re-
move until final cleanup.

Service Access
Two separate circuits are required for this unit:
1. Whirlpool bath controller.
2. Rapid Heat.
For partially or fully sunken installations, allow for
service access as shown. It is the installer's responsi-
bility to provide sufficient service access. Provide
adequate ventilation to cool the motor and to supply
sufficient air for the jets.
1. J-Sha II
Install a 120 VAC 20 AMP dedicated circuit protected by
a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect
only to a circuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter.
2. Rapid Heat
Install a 120 VAC 15 AMP dedicated circuit with GFCI
protection. For operation, refer to the RapidHeat in-
structions.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect
only to a circuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter.
PROVIDE SERVICE ACCESS TO
THE THREE SIDES AS SHOWN
In some cases, access may not have been provided
because of the design of the bath environment and
having full understanding that in this case, it may be
necessary to remove the unit for service.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
If this is the case, diagnosing a problem may not be
possible without complete access to the plumbing sys-
tem. This would necessitate the removal of the unit.
Although this practice is not commonly implemented, it
is an acceptable method.

Drain Information
A drain/overflow assembly must be installed on the bath, water tested, and connected to the sanitary system of the
house. After opening the carton, inspect for damage. A solvent weld type drain is included and must be installed as
shown. The drain solenoid wiring plug must be connected to the control box prior to drain/overflow assembly. The
plug position (Drain Solenid) is shown on the control box. It is recommended that the tail pipe be installed on the drain
before the drain/overflow is installed on the bath. Hand tighten and then use a wrench to tighten until the tail pipe does
not turn. Follow the installation instructions provided with the drain/overflow kit to install the drain/overflow assembly.
Note: the bath must be propped up due to the length of the tail pipe.
NOTE: Watertight installation of the drain is the installer's responsibility. Drain leakage is excluded from the
Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath warranty of this product.

Plumbing
Pump, jets, and suction fittings for the whirlpool system are factory plumbed in a combination of metric and schedule
40 PVC piping. All Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath products are factory tested for proper operation and watertight connections
prior to shipping.
Before securing the bath to the floor, a test should be made for possible water leaks. Fill the bath until the nozzles
on the back rest are covered. If leaks are detected, notify your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath Dealer. Do not install the unit.
BACK REST NOZZLES
Water Supply
Consult local authorities for plumbing code requirements in your area.
IMPORTANT: Proper installation of the fill spout plumbing and compliance with local codes are the
responsibility of the installer. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath does not warrant connections of water supply fittings
and piping, fill systems, or drain/overflow systems. Nor is it responsible for damage to the bath which occurs
during installation.

Purging the Whirlpool System
NOTE: THE WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM SHOULD BE PURGED AT LEAST TWICE A MONTH
Toremoveaccumulationsofbathresiduefromthewhirlpoolsystem,itisrecommendedthatawhirlpoolbathbepurged
at least twice a month. For best results, however, we recommend that you purge your whirlpool bath after each use
using our exclusive two-part plumbing system cleaner made specifically for whirlpool baths. Systems Clean ™ is
available through an authorized Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath Distributor or by calling us direct at 1-800-288-4002.
Instructions for use: Immediately after bathing and exiting the whirlpool bath, leave the bath water in the tub and add
hot water, if necessary, so the water is at least 2" above the highest jet. Turn on the unit without the aerator. Pour
thecontentsoftheSystemsCleanPacket1(takingcarenottogetthematerialonyourself)intothebathneartheintake
for the circulation pump. Repeat same process with Systems Clean Packet 2. It is important to use Packet 1 before
Packet 2 to avoid a strong odor. Run the bath for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain completely and rinse any residue.
If you have followed the standard purging instructions above and still have an excess accumulation of bath residue
and desire an alternative cleaning mechanism, we recommend SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS manufactured by
Stearns Packaging to rectify this condition. This may be obtained by contacting us at l-800-288-4002. It is
recommended that you follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer with the product. Repeated use may be
necessary. SUPERSYSTEMSCLEANPLUSdoesnotreplacethenecessitytoregularlypurgeyourwhirlpoolsystem
with Systems Clean as recommended.
(For additional information about water content, contact us for a copy of the Jacuzzi Water Quality Primer.)
Bath Additives
NOTE: DO NOT USE OIL OR OIL BASED BATH ADDITIVES.
If you want to use any kind of bath additive, use only a small amount of low-foaming powder or crystal substance; the
whirlpool action intensifies the foaming properties of soaps.
The use of certain bath oils, bubble baths and bath additives may increase the level of accumulations of bath residue
in the whirlpool system. If excess accumulations persist, you should discontinue use of these products.
12
Repairs to the Surface
Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish (acrylic) can be removed with 600-grit wet/dry sandpaper.
Restore the glossy finish with an acrylic polish or a comparable automotive paste wax. Major scratches or gouges
which penetrate the acrylic surface require refinishing. Ask your dealer for special instructions.
Lamp
When the bulb burns out, replace it from the back of the lamp fitting, on the underside of the shell, by pulling out the
bulb receptacle. Replacement bulbs (7W, 12V) are available from your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer.
