Introducing the Solares™ Smart Spa
Apollo’s Tradition of Innovation Continues with the Medical Industry’s First Intelligent Whirlpool Spa.
Computer-automation and on-screen instructions mean minimal dependency on the memory of busy
staff. A network of sensors monitors safe usage and provides step-by-step guidance when desired.
Therapeutic Spa Experience
The Solares™ Smart Spa features the Hydrologic™ Therapy System, a highly advanced whirlpool water
flow system that provides gentle, balanced, and total body hydromassage. Hydrotherapy has been
shown to boost blood flow, stimulate endorphin production, strengthen the immune system, reduce
inflammation, ease pain, promote healing, reduce anxiety, and energize the body and spirit.
Remedy+™ UV Germicidal Water Purification
Apollo’s original UV water purifier is clinically proven to reduce UTIs by 50% and Respiratory Infections
by 35%. Our new Remedy+ UV System is the next generation of FDA-recognized, broad-spectrum
germicidal water purification. A study by the Medical College of Pennsylvania shows the dramatic levels
of bacteria a bather brings to their bath and proves the efficacy of ultraviolet light (UV) at disinfecting
the water. The Remedy+ UV System provides a major leap forward with even faster pathogen
eradication
Taking Care of Caregivers
Caregivers will enjoy the Solares™ Smart Spa because it is safe and easy to use. Computer-automated
operation and on-screen instructions reduce dependency on training and the memory of busy staff. The
chair moves easily to allow access to all areas of the resident’s body. The design virtually eliminates the
risk of injury to both caregivers and residents.
Rapid Fill™ Reservoir - when equipped
Provides for maximum efficiency and resident comfort, silently filling the bath from the bottom up in
less than 60 seconds
Secure-Glide™ Transfer System
The safest, most reliable, and comfortable transfer system ever, providing single-caregiver transfers of
residents up to 500 pounds.
Integrated Weigh Scale
Quickly and automatically capture residents’ weight when seated in the tub.
Easy Cleaning and Maintenance
The Solares™ Smart Spa provides comprehensive infection control, featuring our Remedy+ UV Water
Purification, the bath chair embedded with BioGuard™ Antimicrobial Protectant, and automated
cleaning and disinfecting. All components are designed for convenient access, minimal maintenance,
and easy service.

Plumbing and Electrical Codes
All states and municipalities may differ extensively in their plumbing and electrical codes. Therefore,
Apollo Corporation recommends that you check with the proper enforcement agencies in your area
before installation.
All Apollo bathing systems are manufactured with built-in backflow prevention. However, due to
different plumbing codes, ask your installer whether there is a need to install additional backflow
prevention valves (such as RPZ valves) on any new construction.

Intended Use
Apollo bathing systems are designed and sold for use in medical field markets including but not limited
to nursing homes, hospitals, and assisted living facilities. Apollo’s bathing systems are designed to be
operated by trained operators and are not intended to be operated by the individual taking the bath.
The device is intended to be operated with the resident to be bathed seated in the tub and the operator
at either side.

Solares™ Smart Spa Bathing System Operating Manual
CD0036 - 9 - 1121
Critical Safety Mechanisms
The critical safety mechanisms of the device required for it to be operated safely includes the
functionality of the primary lock, secondary locking mechanism, carrier latch, and the unit’s ability to
maintain safe bathing temperature.
The carrier base’s primary lock (the latch on the front left of the carrier rails) must be able to securely
latch on to the chair when it is rolled to the front of the base. If the chair can move while on the carrier,
it’s possible the primary latch is disengaged or has failed.
The secondary locking mechanism on the chair (The shafts located beneath the chair with rods sticking
out of either side) must automatically move upwards when not actively forced downward. If this
mechanism is operating correctly then the chair should become “trapped” in the channels located on
the tub and carrier rails until the secondary release handle is pulled.
The carrier latch located on the plate to the front of the tub’s frame needs to be able to securely latch
onto the carrier base’s pin. If the carrier is pushed into the latch it should not be possible to release the
carrier from the tub without pulling the emergency release handle or operating the release button.
The equipment must produce water at a safe bathing temperature. The primary safety mechanism for
this is the use of a temperature and pressure balanced valve that’s factory set to prevent filling at
temperatures at or above 110°f. If the filling temperature of the tub ever exceeds 110°f then the
adjustment of this valve needs to be corrected. None of the above-mentioned mechanisms are
susceptible to EM disturbances. Please Note: device software prevents filling above 105°f.
In the event of an AC line voltage surge, an ESD event, or Rf Electro-magnetic interference, the unit will
maintain its normal operation or shut down in a manner that will not expose a patient to physical harm.

Remedy+™ UV Water Purification System (if applicable)
Your bathing system is equipped with the Remedy+™ UV Germicidal Water Purification System, an
electronic germicidal ultraviolet (UV) light disinfecting system.
When you operate the bathing system, the bathwater is continuously circulated through two ultraviolet
chambers, where the water passes over and around two UV lamps.
The UV light is monitored electronically, and indicator lights show that the UV light is sufficient to
disinfect.
The Remedy+™ UV Germicidal Water Purification System is automatic; it turns on and off with the
Hydrologic™ Therapy System, a highly advanced whirlpool water flow system, and has no separate
controls.
Use only ultraviolet transmissible cleaners, disinfectants, soaps, and bath oils, such as Apollo’s Turbo
Clean™ Pre-Disinfectant Detergent, Cid-A-L™ II Quaternary Disinfectant, Hygena™ Shampoo and Body
Wash, and Therasol™ Natural Bath Oil. Use of other cleaners, soaps, and bath oils is not recommended
and could compromise the Remedy+™ UV Infection Protection System.
Cleaning & Disinfecting Considerations
The Solares™ Smart Spa provides comprehensive infection control, featuring our Remedy+ UV water
purification, the bath chair embedded with BioGuard™ antimicrobial protectant, and an automated
cleaning and disinfecting system.
Your Solares™ Smart Spa arrived with an Intro Pack which includes Turbo Clean™ Pre-Disinfectant
Detergent and Cid-A-L™ II Quaternary Disinfectant.
Turbo Clean™ is used after each bath to remove residue, bacteria, and gross soils.
Cid-A-L™ II is used after cleaning to effectively kill bath-borne bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
Your Solares™ Smart Spa is calibrated to dilute Turbo Clean™ and Cid-A-L™ II at the mixture stipulated
by the manufacturer’s instructions. Use of other cleaners and disinfectants is not recommended and
could compromise the overall process.
With Remedy® UV Infection Protection™ System
•Always follow the Cleaning Procedure after every bath.
•When equipped with Remedy+ UV water purification, it may not be necessary to follow the
Disinfecting Procedure after every bath in the same bathing session. Consult with your infection
control specialist or infection control policy to determine your disinfecting requirements.
•For a Special Care Resident or in the event potentially infectious matter is released into the tub (e.g.
fecal matter, wound debridement, blood, mucus, etc.), consult infection control management to
determine if terminal disinfecting (Disinfecting Procedure) is required before using again.
•Always follow the Disinfecting Procedure after the last bath of the bathing session.
Without Remedy® UV Infection Protection™ System
•Always follow the Cleaning and Disinfecting Procedure after every bath.
Replacing Cleaning and Disinfecting Products

Auto Tilt
The Solares™ is designed to be tilted down
during the bath to maximize immersion
without requiring additional water. This tilting
is initially set to be done manually (with a
button on the screen) out of the box to allow
operators to control it before learning how to
use resident settings. Once your facility is
ready to move on to having the tilt function
automatically you can enable it at any time.

See “Resident Profiles” for more information.

Bathing Menu
The Bathing Menu allows you to jump to any
screen involved in the bathing and cleaning/
disinfecting processes. This screen can be
accessed by clicking “Bathing Menu” on the
Home Screen.
Resident Profiles
The Solares™ comes equipped with the ability
to store custom bathing profiles centered
around the needs of different residents. You
can choose to either create profiles that meet
the needs of certain groups of your residents
or make custom profiles for each resident as
well.
Selecting a Profile:
Click on the drop-down box underneath
“Select a Resident” and select the desired
profile.
The system comes with 3 profiles preloaded
including Default, Max Immersion, and Min
Immersion.
“Max Immersion” is for residents who like
to take full advantage of the tub’s
immersion. This profile enables auto-tilt
and fills the water up to the bottom of the
overflow.
“Min Immersion” is for those who do not
want the additional immersion. This profile
disables auto tilt and only fills high enough
to turn on the whirlpool system.
“default” is a middle of the road setting. It
uses auto tilt and fills midway between the
min and max immersion profiles.
