Abstract
A water distribution system for a spa is disclosed that comprises at least one channel around at least a portion of the peripheral edge of the shell, a water feed pipe in communication with a source of pressurized water disposed within the channel with a penetration of the shell by the water feed pipe at an end of the channel, a pod depression in the containment of the shell constructed and configured such that the channel is interrupted by the depression and the water feed pipe continues through the pod, a jet water outlet feed on the water feed pipe at the pod that is constructed and configured to provide at least one water feed outlet for a jet, and at least one water jet with water communication with the water feed outlet.
Claims23
A water distribution system in a spa comprising a shell that provides a water containment for containing water up to an operating water level line, the water distribution system comprising;
- at least one hollow molded into the shell that communicates with the containment such that any water in the hollow can flow into the containment,
- at least one jet disposed in the hollow to direct water into the containment,
- at least one jet supply line disposed in the hollow for at least a portion of its length and extending from a penetration of the shell above the water line of the containment to the at least one jet, the hollow comprising at least one pod with a channel extending from the shell penetration to the pod,
- at least one hollow cover configured and constructed to cover at least a portion of the at least one hollow and provide an enclosure for the at least one jet supply line.
A water distribution system in a spa comprising a molded shell to provide a water containment, the water distribution system comprising;
- at least one channel that extends around at least a portion of the peripheral edge of the shell,
- a water feed pipe in communication with a source of pressurized water disposed within the channel with a penetration of the shell by the water feed pipe through the shell into the channel,
- at least one pod depression in the containment of the shell constructed and configured such that the channel is interrupted by the depression and the water feed pipe continues through the pod,
- at least one water jet with water communication with the water feed pipe disposed in the pod.
The water distribution system of 10 wherein the water jet is mounted on a cover plate that covers the pod.
A water distribution system in a spa comprising a molded shell to provide a water containment, the water distribution system comprising;
- at least one channel around at least a portion of the peripheral edge of the shell,
- a water feed line in communication with a source of pressurized water disposed along and within the channel with a penetration of the shell by the water feed line through a dam at an end of the channel
- at least one pod depression in the containment of the shell constructed and configured such that the channel is interrupted by the depression and the water feed line continues through the pod,
- a jet water outlet feed manifold on the water feed line near the pod that is constructed and configured to provide at least one water feed outlet for a jet,
- at least one water jet diposed in the pod with water communication with the water feed outlet.
