Whirlpool Bath Inventor

Not since the late Bobby Darin made musical waves with Splish Splash has such revolutionary news emanated from the tub.``Murlin,`` the world`s first patented self-cleaning whirlpool, has been invented as a housekeeper`s dream come true. Rub-a-dub-a-dub, relaxin` in the tub, you need no longer contemplate the downside of a bubble bath -- not even if the hired help gets huffy.``As the self-cleaning oven revolutionized cooking 10 years ago, so will the self-cleaning whirlpool tub revolutionize bathing,`` says Murray Altman, inventor and president of the California-based ThermaSol, Ltd.Well, maybe. Murlin, which comes in a choice of ``high-fashion custom colors including Crystal White, French Creme and Satin Silver,`` also comes with a suggested retail price of $3,595. (Conventional whirlpool tubs retail at an average $3,000, industry sources say.)As for Murlin`s wizardry, here`s how he works: A touch on the high-tech control console activates his micro-chip brain to fill your tub and start eight whirlpool jets for 15 minutes.

Another touch tells him to continue the jets or stop.After your bath, Murlin ``senses`` when all water has drained, and then starts a unique 80-second rinse, wash and disinfect cycle. During the cleaning, seven gallons of cold water, mixed with ThermaSol`s patented biodegradable cleaner and disinfectant, rush down tub walls from a specially designed spray jet around the top.

Born to a farm family in 1903 in Italy's Friuli region, Candido Jacuzzi (1903-1986) came to this country in 1920 and settled in Berkeley, California. There he worked in a machine shop operated by his brothers. As necessity is the mother of invention, it was the severe arthritis of his youngest child that served as the motivation in 1949 for Candido to create a pump that caused a whirlpool reaction in the bathtub that brought relief to the arthritic condition.

Jacuzzi patented the invention and after some modifications the family business began to manufacture hydro massage units for home use. This led Jacuzzi to invent other similar devices for use in larger water holding systems. Jacuzzi served as president of the company that manufactured various types of submersible pumps in several plants. So closely was his name identified with whirlpool baths that "Jacuzzi" became the generic term. There were of course other Italian American inventors who received dozens of patents and a sampling is appropriate. Antonio Meucci was credited with inventing a mechanical string telephone, Frank Bellanca received a patent for a pursuit bomber and patents for other technical improvements of airplanes, and Enrico Fermi received a patent for a sustained reaction in neutronic reactor. In addition, Bernard Castro invented the folding sofa bed, Bernard A. Cousino, invented the eight-track tape player and the automobile tape deck, Ettore Steccone invented the flexible rubber wiper used on automobile windshields, and Frank J. Zamboni invented the "Zamboni Machine" for ice resurfacing.
