The Empava EMPV-67AIS37-BN is a 67" oval freestanding whirlpool tub with 16 hydro-jets and chromatherapy LED light, its back rising to 32.68" overall. It is sized for one adult and measures 66.93" L x 29.53" W x 32.68" H, holding 53 gallons at a 14.56" soaking depth.
16 Jets and a 53-Gallon Soak
Sixteen jets are positioned around the body for a vigorous, full massage, driven by a pump on a grounded 110/120V, 15 amp outlet. The interior is contoured to support the back, neck and shoulders, with a gently sloped back and an integrated headrest that Empava says promote a relaxed reclining position.
A 10W underwater LED brings light into the water: switch it on from the tub's control panel and it cycles through seven colors, from green and orange to deep blue and purple. The pump and light each have their own button on that panel.
At 66.93" by 29.53", Empava says the interior proportions give ample room to recline and stretch while the footprint stays efficient and practical for most residential layouts. The shell is white acrylic and weighs 116.85 lbs empty. It ships with the drain and overflow only, with no faucet; Empava lists a right drain and no heater, and for two people it points to the EMPV-71JT667B and EMPV-72JT367LED.
Planning Around a 66.93" x 29.53" Footprint
Plan for an overall size of 66.93" L x 29.53" W x 32.68" H; empty, it weighs 116.85 lbs. It holds 53 gallons at a 14.56" soaking depth. The drain is on the right side, with a 1.65" opening. Empava's manual plans for a 31.5" drain pipe with the floor drain 12" from the tub drain, and 1/2" hot and cold supply connectors. For power, Empava lists 110/120V, 15A.
Choosing Within Empava's AIS Whirlpool Range
If you are weighing options within Empava's AIS freestanding whirlpool range, the models closest in nominal size are the EMPV-67AIS01, the EMPV-67AIS02 and the EMPV-67AIS03. Each is listed with its own photos, specifications and documents, so you can compare size, capacity, jets and drain position against this model.
Empava designs its jetted tubs for fill-and-drain use: the tub is drained after each bath and refilled with fresh water, and the jets run only when the water covers the highest jet by at least 1" to 2". Its manual recommends flushing the pump and pipes before first use and once a month with hot water and a low-foaming detergent, and cleaning hair and lint from the suction cover, so the jets stay clean. Before installation, Empava asks you to run every function with water in the tub for a few minutes and report any defect.
In short, the EMPV-67AIS37-BN is an Empava 67" freestanding whirlpool tub with 16 jets, LED lighting and 53 gallons of water.

Installation & Care
Installation
Freestanding, right drain per Empava's spec tab; overall 66.93" L x 29.53" W x 32.68" H, 116.85 lbs empty. No faucet is included. The tub's drain pipe is 31.5" long, and Empava's manual places the floor drain 12" from the tub drain so the pipe forms an S-bend odor trap; leave a drain opening of at least 2.0". Rough in 1/2" external-thread hot and cold supply connectors that stand 1.18" out from the wall, with a shutoff valve on each line where you can reach it for service. The pump runs on a grounded 15A outlet, with the external circuit behind a high-sensitivity, fast-trip GFCI (leakage-protection) switch (induced current below 15mA, trip time under 0.1 second, rated current above 30A), installed by a licensed electrician as Empava specifies. Before you set it in place, fill the tub and run every function for a few minutes: Empava asks that any defect is reported before installation.
Care
Flush the jet system before first use and once a month: fill with hot water (about 104°F) 0.9" to 1.2" above the jets, add 2 to 3 teaspoons of low-foaming dishwasher detergent, run the jets for 10 minutes and drain, then refill with cold water, run 15 minutes and drain again. Clear hair and lint from the suction cover regularly and never run the jets dry; the water must cover the highest jet by at least 1" to 2". Clean the acrylic with water or a mild detergent; acids, alkalis and solvent cleaners damage the surface. Light scratches can be wet-sanded with 1200 then 2000 grit paper and polished back to a gloss. In freezing weather, drain the tub and its pipes.
