Spa systems may be used all year round and in colder weather provide an enjoyable experience for users through the cold ambient outdoor temperature and the heated water of the spa. However, failures in respect of the water circulating pump and/or heater of the spa system either mechanically, electrically or through overall power outages mean the water in the spa system and its pipework can easily freeze if ambient conditions are cold enough leading to cracks in the spa system or pipes and hence leaks when the water thaws requiring costly repair or replacement of components or entire systems. Accordingly, a freeze protection system is provided that uses a backup thermal management system discretely or in combination with other backup systems. These freeze protection systems offering backup when mechanical failures, electrical failures etc. arise by providing thermal input to the spa system through alternate thermal paths and providing alarms.

The present invention relates to a stimulation device (1) configured for interacting with an external body portion of a user, in particular the user's back. The interaction consists of exerting a mechanic action upon the user's body, 5 such as massage stimulation and/or skin scrubbing stimulation. For this purpose, the stimulation device (1) comprises a frame (50) provided with at least one upright element (2) extending along a longitudinal direction (L) preferably corresponding, in use, to a body height of the user, and stimulation means (4), slidably coupled with the upright element (2) according to the 10 longitudinal direction (L). Further, the stimulation device (1) is apt to be installed, in use, in a wall unit (100) for a shower cabin assembly (1000).

An apparatus, system, and method involving controlling a spa system having a basin are provided. In one embodiment, the apparatus or system includes an electronics control portion and smart embedded software for receiving inputs from an operator of the spa system and for generating signals in response to inputs received from the operator. In addition, the apparatus or system includes a fluid mixing portion that receives the fluid from a supply and outputs the received fluid into the basin of the spa system. Moreover, the electronics control portion reads a temperature of the fluid in the fluid mixing portion and displays it to the control keypad. In another embodiment, the system includes a pump having a contactless, water sensor for dispensing water or air to a setting and for use with a disposable liner. The pump includes a jet assembly, a motor assembly, and a contactless, water sensor.

A fitting assembly for installation in an opening in a tub shell wall of a bathing installation tub. A resilient grommet is sized to be inserted into the opening and has an interior peripheral recess defined in a wall portion, having a recess cross-sectional configuration. A fitting body has a protruding external rib having a rib cross-sectional configuration complimentary to the recess cross-sectional configuration, the rib positioned on the fitting body so that when the fitting body is inserted into the grommet, the rib is received into the recess on the grommet. The grommet and fitting are configured such that the recess and the rib are positioned behind the back surface of the shell wall when installed in the opening, and the grommet is compressed by the edge of the shell opening and pushed outwardly by the rib to lock the fitting into the shell opening.

A system and method for automatically producing and monitoring a cryotherapy session within a chamber includes a plumbing system coupled to the chamber for cooling the chamber. A central controller may be coupled to the plumbing system. The central controller may be operable for: initiating the cryotherapy session within the chamber with a cryogenic gas flowing through the plumbing system for cooling the chamber to a first temperature; determining if the first temperature has been reached within the chamber; determining if a check-in command has been received for the cryotherapy session; and stopping the cryotherapy session after a predetermined period of time. The central controller may also monitor a cooling rate for the chamber and a heater associated with the cooling rate.

A spa has an insulated cabinet with an uninsulated shell disposed therein. A filter assembly is downstream of a water intake. A heater is downstream of the filter assembly and a pump is downstream of the heater. A diversion line is in fluid line connection with an outlet of the pump. An ozonizor is in fluid communication with the diversion line. The filter assembly is coupled to the diversion line. A data processing system is coupled to the heater, pump, a control panel and a temperature sensor, wherein the data processing system responsive to when the actual temperature of an amount of water in the shell is a magnitude in degrees below a set temperature 1) turns the heater off if it is on or does not turn the heater on if it is already off and 2) turns the pump on if it is off or if it is already running does not turn the pump off.

An apparatus and method for remote monitoring and data capture in an emergency washing apparatus adapted for generating a controlled spray or jet of water directed at a user for washing therewith. A washing unit includes a water inlet and one or more water outlets arranged for forming a spray or jet of water received from the water inlet. One or more sensors is configured to sense one or more properties of the water received at the water inlet selected from: a water flow rate, a water pressure, a water temperature, a water pH level, a bacteria content. The one or more sensors are configured to generate a representative measurement signal indicating a value of the one or more sensed properties of the water, and to transmit the measurement signal for reception locally at, or remotely from, the washing unit.

A pedicure chair with a basin for receiving a quantity of water therein. An autofill system can be incorporated with the basin to automatically manage spillover. The auto fill system can have a controller, a water supply valve, and a water level sensor. The water level sensor can be a proximity sensor attached externally of the basin. The water level sensor can send a signal to a controller when the water level sensor detects a predetermined water level in the basin. The controller is configured to shut off the water supply to the basin by sending a signal to actuate the water supply valve. A steamer can be used with the pedicure chair to provide heat and a therapeutic steam bath.

A circuit interface includes a plurality of inputs, an internal controller, and a communication module. Each of the inputs may be configured to connect to a respective high voltage relay output of a pool and/or spa control (PSC) panel. The internal controller may be connected to the plurality of inputs, and together, the internal controller and the plurality of inputs can be configured to convert relay output signals into formatted data that includes an implementation protocol. The communication module can be configured to transmit the formatted data from the circuit interface. Conversions from the relay output signals to the formatted data can include specifying or configuring the formatted data to cause a device controller to operate devices corresponding to respective PSC panel relay outputs by directing individual low voltage supplies from a common low voltage source to the respective devices.

A pool pump is provided. The pool pump comprises a housing, and a control panel arranged on said housing, with a control unit connected to said control panel to form a capacitive touch control. The housing may be provided with at least one accommodation cavity, the control panel is arranged in a flippable manner at said housing, and the control panel and the end cover are in a horizontal position and at least one preset angle position. The pool pump is detachably connected to a pool pump cover, and the pool pump cover comprises: a cover body; a base connected to said cover body; and at least one functional device arranged on said cover body for implementing at least one of the functions of communication, electrical charging and music play. The pool pump adopts a pool control system for a massage pool unit of an inflatable pool, comprising an intelligent controller electrically connected to the massage pool unit, and the intelligent controller is configured to receive a usage operation to drive said pool pump so that said inflatable pool generates multiple water circulation modes.
