Site Selection
Y
our Pacific Hot Tub is totally self-contained and portable. You can place it just about anywhere you wish;
on a patio, deck, or even directly on the ground. Regardless of your choice of location, the hot tub should
always be placed on a firm, level, well-drained base.
When considering an installation site, always allow for easy access to your equipment. The installation site
should also allow enough room to completely remove and store the hot tub cover during use.
CAUTION: DO NOT INSTALL YOUR HOT TUB WITHIN 10' OF OVERHEAD POWER LINES.
If you are considering placing the hot tub on an elevated deck, platform, or indoors, we recommend that you
consult a structural engineer or contractor prior to installation.
Warning: Do not permit electrical appliances (such as a light, telephone, or television) within 1.5 m
of this hot tub.
INSIDE LOCATION
Although your Pacific Hot Tub has been designed to be operated outdoors during all seasons, some people
choose to locate their unit indoors. Special precautions must be observed when putting your hot tub indoors,
specifically in a heated room or solarium.
Proper ventilation:
The room must be properly vented to allow moisture and excess heat to escape.
Moisture:
Using your hot tub for 15 – 20 minutes gives off the same moisture/condensation as a 15 – 20 minute
shower, so a proper bathroom fan should be installed.
Heat:
It is also very important not to allow heat generated by the hot tub equipment to become trapped in the
hot tub area as this will lead to excess water temperatures, and could potentially cause premature
equipment failure. The equipment cabinet should be vented if installed indoors, or in any area where the
temperature is never below freezing.
