INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
electrical
installation:
All
local,
state and national
electrical
codes must be observed by a licensed
electrician in
connecting power to the Aquatic whirlpool.
When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be observed, including the following:
1.read and follow
all ins
tructions.
2.Circuit:
A separate circuit (not to supply any other electrical devices) is required as follows: For units equipped with a pump motor only, a 110/120 VAC 15 Amp circuit is required. Wire coding is black [hot], white [neutral] and green (or bare copper for ground).
3.GFCI:
A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must be installed in the circuits which bring power to the whirlpool; do not omit. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this unit. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a licensed electrician before using.
4. Grounding:
Motors have a three prong electrical plug requiring a black [hot], white [neutral] and green wired circuit.
5.Bonding:
A pressure wire connector is provided on the exterior of the motor within this unit to permit connection of a No. 8 AWG solid copper bonding conductor between all electrical equipment, as needed to comply with local requirements.
6.Wall
Switch:
A remote wall switch is required by many state codes. It must not be within 5 ft. (1.5 m) reach of a bather while standing in the tub and it must be mounted at a height to be out of the reach of small children. The remote switch should not be further than 10 ft. (3.0 m) away.
7.Integral
On/Off Switch:
