INSTALLATION
SITE PREPARATION
1. Structure: Your spa should always be installed on a structurally sound,
relatively smooth, and level surface.
2. Electrical: Your spa should be connected to a grounded outlet within
eight feet of the spa. For 120 V units, there should be easy access to the
plug for periodic testing of the cord mounted GFCI.
3. Bonding: A copper wire connector is located inside the spa power pack to
permit connection of a minimum No. 8 A.W.G. (No. 6 for Canada) solid
copper bonding conductor between any metal equipment, water pipe, or
metal enclosures within 5 feet of the spa as required to comply with the
National Electric Code, or local requirements.
INDOOR INSTALLATION
Give special consideration to the following issues when installing your spa
indoors.
1. Make sure the fl oor can support the total spa fi lled weight of 2113 pounds.
2. Install your spa on water resistant, non-slip fl oor. Th e fl oor should have
a drain to remove water splashed from the spa. Do not install the spa on
carpet or other material that will be damaged by moisture.
3. Take into consideration the room humidity which will exist due to
high temperatures. Providing natural or forced ventilation in the room
will help maintain comfort and minimize moisture damage to the
surrounding environment.
4. Avoid installing the spa indoors on a second story above fi nished living
space due to the possibility of water and humidity damage.
5. Allow enough clearance around the spa for full access to the spa
equipment for service.
