Preparing a Good Foundation

Damage caused by inadequate or improper foundation support is not covered by the war- ranty..

It is the responsibility of the spa owner to provide a proper foundation for the spa.

We strongly recommended that you have a qualified, licensed contractor prepare the foundation for your spa.

Place the spa on a level concrete slab not less than 3” / 8 cm thick. If you are installing the spa indoors, pay close attention to the flooring beneath it. Choose flooring that will not be damaged or stained.

If you are installing your spa on an elevated wood deck or other structure, consult a structural engineer or a contractor to ensure the structure will support the weight of 150 pounds per square foot.

Electrical Installation

This product is a cord-connected spa with a pump heater, lighting fixture, and spa side control. The operating power is 110V AC.

A licensed electrician may be required to upgrade your standard receptacle and/or circuit breaker. Always follow applicable local, state and federal codes and guidelines.

The spa is equipped with a 15 amp GFCI cord and plug kit.

Plug the spa into a dedicated electrical line with a 15 amp breaker.

Always use a weatherproof-covered receptacle. Re- ceptacle shall be located not less than 5 feet (1.5

m)from and not exceeding 10 feet (3.0 m) from the inside wall of the spa (NEC 680.43(A)).

Do not use extension cords. Using an extension cord will void your warranty.

Do not bury the power cord. If your cord becomes damaged, replace it before next usage.

If you need to replace your cord, replace it with a 15 amp GFCI connection. The cord may not be longer than 15 feet (4.6 m).

Testing the GFCI

Test the GFCI plug prior to first use and periodically when the spa is powered. To test the GFCI plug ver- sion, follow these instructions. (Spa should already be plugged in and operational.)

1.Press the TEST button on the GFCI. The GFCI will trip and the spa will stop operating.

2.Press the RESET button on the GFCI. The GFCI will reset and the spa will turn back on.

The spa is now safe to use.

If the GFCI trips while the spa is in use, press the RESET button. If the GFCI does not reset, unplug the spa and call your local Cal Spas dealer for service. DO NOT USE THE SPA!
