IMPORTANT NOTICE: The electrical wiring of this hot tub must meet the
requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable state
or local codes. The electrical circuit must be installed by a qualified electri-
cian and approved by a local building/electrical inspection authority.
1. This hot tub must be permanently connected (hard-wired) to the power
supply. No plug-in connections or extension cords are to be used in
conjunction with the operation of this hot tub. Supplying power to
the hot tub which is not in accordance with these instructions will void
both the independent testing agency listing and the manufacturer’s war-
ranty.
2. The power supplied to this hot tub must be a dedicated circuit with no
other appliances or lights sharing the power provided by the circuit.
3. To determine the current, voltage and wire size required, refer to Table
No. 1, Power Supply Options and Requirements, page 12.
– Wire size must be appropriate per NEC and/or local codes.
– We recommend type THHN wire.
– All wiring must be copper to ensure proper connections. Do not use
aluminum wire.
– When using wire larger than #6, add a junction box near the hot tub
and reduce to short lengths of #6 wire to connect to the hot tub.
4. The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated switch
or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors to comply
with Section 422-20 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. The
