Whirlpool bath accessories

Kits that fit onto a bath already installed

The 3 kits on this page answer one specific question: can anything be added to a whirlpool bath I already own? Yes, and the two functions that can be added are air jets and heating, separately or together. The Set air pump and jets and the Set water heater cost € 597 each, the combined kit € 937: taking them together costs less than adding them up.

The difference between air jets and a heater

These are two different things and often confused. Air jets add a lighter, more diffuse massage alongside the hydraulic one, with bubbles rising from the base: they change the type of hydromassage, not the temperature. A heater produces no massage: it holds the water at filling temperature for the duration of the bath, instead of letting it cool as an ordinary bath does. Anyone who finds the bath too short because the water goes lukewarm chooses the second; anyone after a different experience, the first.

What is needed to fit them

Both kits require access to the equipment bay beneath the bath, through the removable front panel. The heater also adds an electrical load that has to be checked against the existing circuit: in a bathroom you need a compliant socket with earth and residual current protection. Before ordering, check that there is physical room in the equipment bay and that the panel can actually be opened.

Frequently asked questions about whirlpool bath accessories

Can they be fitted to a bath already installed? Yes, that is what the kits are for. The condition is that the equipment bay is accessible and has enough room: on a bath built in without an inspection panel the job becomes far more onerous.

Is the combined kit worth it? If you need both functions yes, because € 937 is less than the two separate kits added together, and the fitting is done in one visit rather than two.

Does the heater warm cold water? No. It holds the temperature you fill the bath at, it does not bring cold water up to temperature. The difference against an outdoor hot tub, which heats and holds all year round, remains clear.

Do they fit any bath? They are designed for Beauty Luxury baths. On other products compatibility has to be checked model by model.
