SElECTINg ThE vOlTAgE FOR YOUR SPA
The Lina
TM
spa is designed to operate at either 115 volt 20 amp, or 115 volt 30 amp 60 Hz. The Aventine
®
is designed to operate at either 115 volt 20 amp or 230 volt 50
amp while the Palatino
TM
, Marino
TM
, and Cima
TM
spa models require a dedicated 230 volt 50 amp power supply. When the Lina and the Aventine spas are connected to 115
volts 20 amp, the heater will provide approximately 1000 watts of heat only when the pump is operating in LOW speed and the thermostat is calling for heat (NOTE: The
heater does not operate when the pump is on high speed). When the Lina spa is connected to 115 volt 30 amp, the heater will provide approximately 1000 watts of heat
when the pump is operating in LOW or HIGH speed and the thermostat is calling for heat. When the Palatino, Marino, Cima, and Aventine spas are connected to 230 volts,
the heater will provide approximately 4000 watts of heat when the pump is operating in LOW or HIGH speed and the thermostat is calling for heat.
All electrical connections must be made in accordance with the wiring information contained in the electrical control box or on the back of the field wiring access panel of
the equipment module.
115 vOlT INSTAllATION
Spas provided with a factory-installed power supply cord are to be plugged into a grounded, grounding type, 115 volt, 20 ampere receptacle (Lima), 20 ampere
receptacle (Aventine) models. No other electrical appliance or fixture can be used on this circuit.
IMPORTANT:
Under
NO
circumstances should an extension cord be used. Use of an extension cord will seriously degrade the performance of the equipment module
and can create an electrical hazard.
230 vOlT INSTAllATION
When using 230 volt power supply, installation of a 50 amp dedicated circuit is required. Your spa must be hardwired direct to a GFCI-protected subpanel by a licensed
electrician. A wiring diagram is provided inside the equipment module showing where the connections are to be made.

connections must be made in accordance with the wiring information contained in this manual and on the back of the field wiring access panel of the control box. Refer to
the following wiring diagram:
1. Connect the #10 AWG, WHITE [NEUTRAL] wire from the Neutral/Ground Bar on the main electrical service to the sub-panel NEUTRAL bar.
2. Connect the #10 AWG, BLACK [L1] wire from the main electrical service to the subpanel [terminal L1].
3. Connect the #10 AWG, GREEN wire from the Neutral/Ground Bar on the main electrical service to the GROUND terminal of the subpanel.
4. Connect the #10 AWG, WHITE [NEUTRAL] wire from the subpanel breaker to the Neutral terminal (N) on the spa’s control box.
5. Connect the #10 AWG, BLACK [L1] wire from the subpanel breaker to terminal [L1] on the spa’s control box.
8. Connect the #10 AWG, GREEN wire from the GROUND terminal of the subpanel to the GROUND terminal (G) in the spa’s control box.
