Installation - Spa placement
Spa Location:
Improper installation may result in equipment damage and will void the warranty. Your spa must be placed on a flat, level surface.
The space you choose to install your spa is a very important decision, you should consider all of the listed suggestions.
Check your local code office for understanding of building, fencing, gates, electrical, plumbing and enclosure required codes.
A location should be selected to compliment your lifestyle, the view from your house and the ability to supervise the spa.
Position the spa in relation to the surroundings of trees, sunlight exposure, wind, bathroom location, landscaping and evening lighting.
The spa with water is very heavy, if the spa is placed on flooring or decking, be sure the structure is strong enough to support the weight. The necessary support should be at least 75 pounds per square foot.
Install your spa, in a way that will allow easy access to the equipment door.
Storage area for maintenance equipment and chemicals (storing chemicals inside your spa cabinet will void the warranty)
Indoor Considerations:
All of the interior of the spa location must be able to withstand high humidity. The spa chemi- cals may have some corrosive effect.
Floor drain is needed to carry off splashed water from the spa.
It is strongly advised NOT to locate a spa on second story location that may be above fin- ished living space.
