SITE SELECTION

Y

our Voyager spa is completely self-contained. 

It can be set up on a patio, deck, and indoor with
special consideration. 

Structure:

T

he Voyager spa should always be

placed on a structurally strong, relatively smooth
and level surface. Concrete, bricks, stepping stone
or treated wood deck are acceptable permanent
surfaces. See specifications on page 22 for loading
capacity.

Drainage:

Do not place the T

herapy module in 

an area where water will "puddle" around it. A self
draining surface sloped 1 inch per 10 feet would
be ideal.

Indoor installation

Please g

ive special consideration to the following

issues when installing your Voyager spa indoor.

1.

Install your spa on water resistant, non-slip floor

,

preferably with a drain to remove the water that
is splashed from the spa. Do not install on
carpet or other material that will be damaged by
moisture.

2.

T

ake 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 environ-
ment and remove chemical odor in the air.

3.

Indoor second story above finished living space

should be avoided due to the possibility of
water and humidity damage.

4.

Allow full access to the spa equipment for

service.

Outdoor Installation

Please take into account the following when

considering outdoor installation.

1.

Local Building Codes.

2.

Provide a smooth sur

face (tile, concrete, wood,

brick or sand) and verify that there are no sharp
objects under the spa prior to set up. 

3.

Place your spa away from areas where debris

and dirt may be tracked into the spa. 

4.

Consider privacy

, sun exposure, and wind

shielding. A sheltered environment can result in
lower operating and maintenance costs. 

5.

It is recommended that the spa be placed in a

location where it can be easily supervised when
in use by children.

E

LECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND

INSTALLATION

Allow easy access to the Ground F

ault Circuit

Interrupter (GFCI) which is located on the end of
the power cord. The 110 Volt GFCI and the outlet it
is plugged into should be protected from extreme
weather, landscape sprinklers and accidental spills.

A pressure clamp wire connector is provided in the
underside of the pump motor to permit connection
of a minimum No.8 AWG (8.4mm) solid copper
bonding conductor between this point and any
metal equipment, metal enclosures or electrical
equipment, metal water pipe or conduit, within 5
feet (1.5m) of the unit as needed to comply with
local requirements. 

Your Voyager spa has been carefully engineered to
provide maximum safety against electrical shock.
Installation must be within 15 feet of a three wire
grounded 110V 15A outlet. The outlet should be a
minimum of 5 feet from the spa. Connecting the
Voyager spa to an improperly wired circuit, or using
an extension cord may cause damage to the
equipment that is not covered under warranty.
