The quiet operation ensures relaxing evening soaks without disturbing neighbours or household members.

🏢 Commercial Spa Installations

Hotels, health clubs, day spas, and wellness centres rely on the Genesis G120-2NN-S for its robust construction and reliable continuous operation. The automatic dry-out function is particularly valuable in commercial settings where multiple daily use cycles demand equipment that protects itself from moisture damage.

💆 Hydrotherapy & Rehabilitation Systems

Medical and rehabilitation facilities appreciate the consistent, controllable airflow for therapeutic applications. Variable-speed compatibility allows therapists to adjust massage intensity to individual patient needs, while the quiet motor doesn’t interfere with relaxation therapies.

🔄 Blower Replacement & Upgrade

Ideal as a direct replacement for worn, noisy, or underperforming units. The G120-2NN-S often replaces older blowers where customers seek improved performance, reduced noise levels, and modern safety features like automatic dry-out protection.

🛠️ INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

⚠️ Professional Installation Recommended – All electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician according to national wiring regulations.

Electrical Requirements

• Supply Voltage: 230-240V AC, 50Hz single phase
• Current Draw: Approximately 5.2A
• Cable: 1m bare-end cable supplied (Brown = Live, Blue = Neutral, Green/Yellow = Earth for Class I)
• Isolation: Installation must include a fixed wiring switch with contact separation of at least 3mm in each pole

Mounting Position

• Suitable for horizontal mounting below hot tubs and spas
• Secure using three screws through the rubber mounting feet
• Position in a well-ventilated location – avoid cold air intake which will cause cold air injection into the spa
• Must be installed where it is not accessible without use of a tool
• Keep accessible for future inspection and maintenance

Water Protection – Critical

⚠️ Essential: The pipe or hose system must always include either:

• A double air loop AND one check valve above maximum water level, OR
• Two check valves above maximum water level

This prevents water backflow from damaging the blower.

Connection Details

• Outlet: Rotatable 1.5″ BSP union with 32mm connection (included)
• Pipe/Hose: Must be securely fixed to blower outlet
• Ensure all connections are watertight

Thermal Protection Note

If the thermal protection activates, the blower will not restart until power has been disconnected and reconnected AFTER the unit has cooled to room temperature.

Maintenance

No special maintenance required. The intake filter can be cleaned periodically by removing the two screws at the back of the blower to access the base.
