Invisible jet

In cooperation with Villeroy & Boch, BPO developed a jet that is flush with the inside wall of the bath when not active, and therefore practically invisible.

The invisible jet of Villeroy & Boch is a feature for the “ultimate fitness” system. Until 2007 the jets used to be mounted through a hole with a flange on the inside and a nut on the back side of the bath. On request of Villeroy & Boch, BPO developed a jet that is flush with the inside wall of the bath when not active, and therefore practically invisible. When the system is activated the jets pop out of the wall and the user can adjust the jet over an angle of about 270 degrees. By making use of the venturi-effect the water jet is expanded with air improving the massage effect.

The system is designed for use with the Quaryl bath tubs of Villeroy & Boch. The housing is mounted over a hole from the back side of the bath, and then the jet is placed from the inside of the bath. This way both the jet and the inside of the housing can be cleaned anytime by removing the jet. The new jet has created a real boost for the sales of the “ultimate fitness” system.
