INSTALLATION

Important: Read complete instructions before beginning installation.

Positioning Your Spa

Because your Quantum Plus spa is a portable, you can locate it just about anywhere you wish—on a deck, patio, or even indoors. Just be sure to position it above ground in an area with good drainage and on a level, continuous surface which can support the weight of the spa when filled with water and people; this weight is approximately 5252 lbs. (92 lbs. per sq ft). You must also provide access to the spa’s equipment for service and general maintenance.

SERVICE ACCESS

18"

50"

Electrical Requirements

Your Quantum Plus, as it comes from the factory, requires a 230 VAC 50 AMP 4-wire grounded type electri- cal service and must be in a separate circuit having no other appliance connected in that circuit. If you do not have this kind of circuit, a qualified electrician should be called in to install the necessary wiring. Inadequately sized wiring or locating the spa too far from the main service panel may cause a voltage drop which might cause the unit to

malfunction and bring about permanent damage to the spa’s electrical system. The circuit must also have a ground wire in order to take advantage of the designed-in safety features of the spa. Bond according to procedure described on the next page. Caution: Without proper grounding and bonding, a system malfunction may cause fatal shock.
