MTI Air Jets

MTI's thermo-air massage system is inherently hygienic. Specially designed plastic protective jet housings, unique to MTI, isolate components to prevent residue buildup in the fiberglass backing of the bath. Sealed in each housing is a built-in backflow prevention check valve that's designed to keep bath water from entering the air lines. Finally, 7 minutes after the water has drained from the tub, an automatic purge cycle engages for one minute to remove any water that might be remaining in the air jets. This ensures that the next bath will be sanitary and fresh, even after a soaking bath or shower.
Enjoy the full benefits of air bath therapy with the air jets that are positioned on the floor of the tub.
• This installation method allows optimum positioning of the air jets for complete body coverage by
the air bubbles.
• The forced air provided by the blower is delivered through jets positioned on the floor of the tub,
producing bubbles which naturally rise vertically, contacting and enveloping all submerged body
parts.
• Discreet air lines from the blower manifold to the air jets provide uniform distribution of air through
all the jets.
• Check valves in the air jet housings allow the air to rise out of the jets and upward, but prevent
water from returning into the air lines.
• The check valves maintain the hygienic integrity of the system.
• Check valves have proven themselves in real-life use to be reliable and problem-free.
• A system designed, engineered and installed in this fashion provides optimum air bath therapy
with optimum hygiene, quieter operation and less bath water heat loss.
• This is the MTI way.
Aria and Aria Elite Air Systems
MTI offers two unique air systems: System Aria and Aria Elite. Both systems provide a light full-body massage through air jets on the bottom of the bathing well. An unobtrusive electronic keypad allows adjustment of the speed and intensity of the air massage from soft and caressing to more vigorous. Or you can select the wave effect, which alternates the speed between strong and soft to create a very efficient lymphatic massage.
Aria Elite increases the luxury level by adding 10 air jets for a total of 30 jets. Aria Elite also adds the benefits of chromatherapy provided by digitally controlled and adjustable underwater LED lighting.
MTI air systems* include an integrated aromatherapy diffusion system which releases the benefits of pure essential oils through millions of tiny air bubbles. The scent is released when the bubbles burst at the surface of the bath water and the natural aroma fills the air, not the bath itself. The overall effect is one of true relaxation and luxury and adds to the lavish spa-like experience.

MTI Aromatherapy

MTI's aromatherapy diffusion system is easy to use, flexible and effective. A small deck-mounted well houses a removable canister which contains the user's fragrance of choice. When the thermo-air massage system is activated, the warm air produced by the blower passes through the canister. The scent is then carried by millions of air bubbles through the water to the surface of the bath water, where the bubbles pop and release the aroma. The scent fills the air, not the bath. Of course, if preferred, bath salts and oils may be added directly to MTI air bath water.
