Jacuzzi types
Initially, we will focus on the principle of operation of this plumbing. The hydromassage bath is a piping system with a pump. The effect of massage is achieved by excessive pressure and directional air flow. The device has a control unit that is responsible for opening the valves at different injectors, starting the system as a whole.
Jacuzzi manufacturers offer a wide range of models
There are two types that differ in function assignment:
- Classic option. Massage is carried out by mixing the air mass, water flow. The effect of the formation of bubbles, the maximum of which is achieved due to the number, locations of the injectors.
- Combined models. They have extras for creating flow direction. This provides massage with pulsation. I believe that this option allows you to achieve the necessary therapeutic action more than the standard design.

Jacuzzi are rich in choice
Useful tips:
- An important criterion is the size of the room. Owners of small rooms are better to choose angular, compact options.
- It should also be drawn on the thickness of the outer layer of the bath. Acrylic products need 5-7 cm. The quality of the coating depends on the durability of the whole structure.
- The number and type of nozzles affect the quality of the massage. Standard mechanisms are capable of acting only with a stream of water. Special devices allow you to change the direction of flow. By the number of nozzles, the best option is from four to six pieces.
- The system can be controlled electronically and pneumatically. The electronic solution, in my opinion, is more convenient. From anywhere you can change modes, control the inclusion.
- The product should not contain chips, dents, foreign odor. You must carefully inspect the jacuzzi before buying.
The direction of the jets can be adjusted independently.

Interesting solutions:
- In small rooms and combined with a bathroom, the right decision would be angular placement. I recommend installing a jacuzzi in front of the exit, but here the place where communications will be connected will influence.
- The oval model is suitable for rooms over 3 m2. In such a room fit bathroom, washing machine, sink. Install follow on the opposite side of the exit.
- If the room has a bay window and large windows, then a jacuzzi is installed at this place. A beautiful view from the window will help to relax. In the case when they go to the next building or roadway, you can hang Roman curtains.
- An additional option in compact rooms is the placement of the bath along the side wall. For such a solution is suitable rectangular design. The bathroom and the sink are placed on the opposite wall.

All modern jacuzzis are equipped with a control panel.
My main advice is to make the installation of a jacuzzi in such a way that the bath harmonizes with the style. To create a general design of the room, the edges of the plumbing are framed with the same materials that are used for finishing. The use of tiles, decorative panels of wood and plastic is permissible.
Standard recommendations:
- In the classic bathroom, framed tiles, the big bathtub for massage from cast iron or marble will successfully look. The use of decorative ornaments is permissible.
- For minimalist design fit compact modern models. They have less functionality, but they fit a small room.
- A round bathroom is suitable for large rooms. The product will be perfectly combined with tiles on the flooras well as large windows and access to balcony.
- Black and white version will give rigor to the design. Jacuzzi in round or oval design perfectly highlight the overall style of the room.

Installation of all hydromassage bath systems should be carried out qualitatively in several stages. In the absence of skills to install a jacuzzi, it is desirable to turn to professionals.
When buying an acrylic bath, make sure that its surface is uniform
Installation and connection steps:
- First of all I advise you to install cleaning filters. All mechanisms are subject to corrosion, therefore, to extend the service life, it is required to clean and soften the water.
- Pipeline and sewage should be brought as close as possible to the jacuzzi. The probability of leakage decreases, the connection process is simplified.
- Installation on a regular place is carried out carefully to avoid damage to the structure. Connection of all branches and the pipeline is carried out according to the instruction.
- The final stage is the connection to the power supply network.Without electricity, the valves for opening the injectors will not work, the pump will not turn on.
