creating voids below the spa.
3. Avoid installing the spa in a pit or low area where
water may accumulate and damage the spa or its
equipment. Choose a site where water will drain away
from the spa and not towards it.
4. Important: With all installations, the spa must be
located at least 5 feet from all electrical outlets,
switches, and other permanently installed electrical
devices.
Indoor Considerations:
There are several
considerations when installing your spa indoors: First,
the environment both around and below the spa should
be water resistant. It must be capable of handling
water splashed out from the spa as well as the
possibility of a leak from the spa (Your Bullfrog portable
spa is the most leak-free spa in the industry, but there
is still the possibility of a leak from the spa. A catch
basin equivalent to the volume of your spa is
recommended); Second, it is recommended that the
room you install the spa in has proper ventilation.
Proper ventilation can usually be achieved by an
exhaust fan or an open window.
Note:
Typical indoor surfaces include, but are not
limited to: concrete, wood, non-slip tile, or linoleum.
Outdoor Considerations:
When selecting an outdoor
site, several things should be considered: First, Avoid
selecting a site where excessive water may contact the
spa, such as from sprinklers or a roof edge without rain
gutters; Second, and if possible, avoid areas of direct,
prolonged sunlight. The ultraviolet rays of sunlight will
tend to fade and damage your spa cover and cabinet;
Third, Check your local codes on possible restrictions
that require fencing or childproof gates around your
spa; Last, avoid locating your spa in an area where
debris will be tracked into the spa.
Note:
Typical outdoor surfaces include, but are not
limited to: concrete, brick, non-slip tile, wood-decking,
peagravel or sand.
