A lid or layer of polypropylene spheres must be used with baths above 60C.

2.2.2.1 Constant level device
A constant level device is fitted to the SBB to maintain the required water level. To use the
constant level device, connect the inlet pipe (black) to a water supply and the outlet pipe
(white) to a drain. The level can be adjusted by loosening the white nut and raising or lowering
the white tube. The position of the top of the tube determines the water level. Re-tighten the
white nut.
After filling the bath adjust the water flow rate to the minimum which maintains a constant
water level when the water is boiling. If connecting to a mains water supply, check that local
water supply regulations are complied with.
Plug in and switch on power to the unit.
