colouroflies Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Is anyone able to shed some light about how to use a single tank Conmurra Hydrobath? I have no idea at all how to hook it all up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colouroflies Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 Surely someone must have one of these units? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesP Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I had a google for you On this page is the instruction sheet - http://www.hydrobaths.com.au/index.php?pag...rt&vmcchk=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakway Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Sorry don't know what you mean. I just plug it into the socket fill with water and witch on the power and turn on the hydrobath. If it has a thermostat select the temparature you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colouroflies Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 Sorry, I should have been more specify. I know about the switches and the power plug. But I have 3 hoses. 1 green one which has the shower head on it, and 2 clear ones at the bottom. I've discovered that the shortest hose drains out the basin and the other longer one spews out the same basin water too (only much stronger). Am I supposed to connect that to a tap or something? cause Ive just been using buckets to fill up the basin. Ive used hydrobaths heaps of times but never actually seen how they connect so I need help! Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTD Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Thats very confusing . I have a single tank " conmurra" hydrobath with only 2 hoses , the shower hose and the drain hose . Maybe give them a call , someone may have modified it to include a filling hose for rinse off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesP Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 It looks like you can drain water out from the bath as well as the wash tank. Maybe one of the hoses is draining the bath and one the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTD Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 (edited) there should only be water in the tank part Can you take a photo ? Edited November 10, 2010 by MTD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesP Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 It says on the website that you can drain straight to the outside. This is for using outside water to do an initial rinse off and to stop this water going into the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colouroflies Posted November 10, 2010 Author Share Posted November 10, 2010 It IS very confusing. lol. It was advertised as a dual filter system, but there is only one filter in the basin (under the floor). It has the heating element, the drain and one silver stainer like pipe. I hooked it up yesterday put the plug in and used buckets of water to fill the basin, but when I turned on the pump water came flowing well out of the shower head but also annoyingly out of this longer hose as well which totally drained my basin water at an alarming rate. If you say you dont need a pipe connected to a water source then I gather its a useless entity and see about removing it. Unfortunelty when I asked the ppl I bought it off they kept getting confused with a newer one they had bought and couldnt really remember how they had this one hooked up. ps - is it possible they had the extra pipe hooked up to a fluncinator? Does that make sense? I remember them saying something along those lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakway Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 This is a difficult one. I would ring Conmurra or there distributors and see what they have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may also have the auto fill model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colouroflies Posted November 10, 2010 Author Share Posted November 10, 2010 (edited) worked it out!!!! It has definately been modified. On much closer inspection someone has added a 3 way joiner and the extra pipe! You can also tell because the hole it comes out of at the back isnt a totally perfect circle (like the other one). So I took off the extra joiner and pipe and re-connected the orginal shower hose straight onto the pump! Phew, that was so confusing. Thatnks for all the help.
