Model Number Location Overview
- For soaking baths, whirlpools, and air baths (BubbleMassage™), the model number with manufacturing date or the serial number are the best methods for identifying the product.
- The model number and serial number are printed on a white or silver label.
- The model number starts with a 4-digit number followed by a succession of letters and numbers representing the model variation, color code, and generation.
- The serial number starts with the letter “S” and typically starts with SKB, SKS, or SCK. The serial number is eight or nine characters containing numbers and letters. The serial number typically does not include dashes.
- Newer baths have serial number labels under the overflow hole. The label will be visible prior to installation and removed or covered after installation.
- Reference the product box for the serial number.
Soaking Baths

Locating the Model Number On an Installed Bath

Whirlpools
- Whirlpools manufactured before 1990: The label is attached to the shell of the bath near the pump assembly, or adhered to nearby piping.
- Whirlpools manufactured 1990 and later: The label is attached directly onto the pump assembly.
- Depending on your whirlpool style, access to the pump may be through an apron panel or service panel.

BubbleMassage Baths
- The model number for a BubbleMassage bath (or air bath) contains the letter "G" after the base model number.
