INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS

LOCATION

For your portable spa to function properly and safely, it must be located on a hard, flat, level surface. In-ground spas require special installation techniques and should be planned in conjunction with your spa dealer. Improper installation can result in structural damage to the spa and the voiding of your spa warranty. Items to discuss with your dealer include: Local construction codes, electrical service requirements, serviceability of equipment, present underground obstructions such as gas, water and telephone lines, safety measures such as fences, locks and visibility of the spa installation from the home, street and neighbors.

You must allow for sufficient water drainage around the spa to help preserve the equipment and support structure.

A filled spa can weigh a great deal and the location should support the weight of the filled spa.

Locate the equipment compartment where it will be accessible. Your spa MUST be installed to permit access for servicing the equipment above and/or below any decks or floors. Access is essential and must allow adequate room for service.

Leave access to the Circuit breakers in the subpanel (240V models) or to the interrupter switch (GFCI, 120V models) on the end of the power cord.

Be sure the spa is level and in the final position BEFORE filling with water. Check for power cords, tools, and hoses that may be caught underneath the spa.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT LET AN EMPTY SPA REMAIN EXPOSED TO

DIRECT SUNLIGHT FOR MORE THAN A FEW MINUTES. Spa surface tem- peratures can reach in excess of 150° F (65°C) if left exposed to the sun. Sig- nificant damage can occur if this is allowed to happen, including warping and blis- tering of the surface. Damage, which may occur as a result of this exposure, is not covered under the warranty.

CAUTION: Never try to move a spa that has not been fully drained. To do so could result in damage to the spa and physical injury to the mover.

OUTDOOR AND PATIO INSTALLATION

To install the spa outdoors, we recommend a reinforced concrete pad at least four inches thick. The reinforcing material should be attached to a #10 AWG bonding wire per national and local electrical code.

If you place the spa on the ground, even temporarily, place concrete pavers under the entire bottom of the spa. The concrete pavers should be at least two inches thick and level across the entire surface. The spa will inevitably settle and become unlevel on this surface, thus it’s important to get it onto a solid foundation as soon as possible.

DECK INSTALLATION

Be sure the deck can support the weight of your filled spa by checking the deck’s maximum load capacity. Consult a qualified building contractor or structural engineer.

INDOOR INSTALLATION

There are special requirements if you place your spa indoors. Flooring material must provide a good grip when wet. Proper drainage is essential to prevent water puddling. Humidity will increase and it’s best to provide proper ventilation to the area and the addition of a ventilation system may be necessary.
