Abstract
A pump 120 contained in a first case 9 sucks hot water 13 in a bathtub 1 through an inlet 12 and pushes the hot water 13 upward through an outlet pipe 14 above the water surface 16. The outlet pipe 14 is coupled to jet nozzles 15, so that the hot water is shot out from the jet nozzles 15 toward the water surface 16. At this time, countless air bubbles are generated in the hot water. The first case 9 and the second case 20 together with the pump 10, a motor 11, the outlet pipe 14, the jet nozzles 15 etc. contained in these cases are installed integrally as a unitary body which is transportable.
