There are many factors to consider when choosing a location to set up the spa. These factors vary depending
on whether you use the spa inside or outside. We have listed several factors you may wish to consider as you
decide where you want to use the spa.
If you set up the spa inside:
1. The spa will increase the level of humidity in your
home. The location you choose should be well
ventilated. You may need to install a ventilation
fan or use a dehumidifier.
2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.
An extension cord cannot be used with the
spa
3. The spa should be close to a source of water.
4. Do not use the spa on carpet or other material
that may be damaged by moisture. We recom-
mend that you place the spa on a water and stain
resistant, non-slip surface with a floor drain for any
water that may splash from the spa.
5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It
must be able to support the weight of the spa
when it is filled with water, plus the weight of the
occupants. The spa weighs approximately 2,339
pounds when filled with water.
6. Do not use the spa above a finished living area,
due to the risk of water damage.
7. Be sure that there is room around the spa to per-
mit servicing of the unit. The diameter of the tub is
69”. You should allow for this size, plus the size of
the spa jet unit plus room to remove the cover,
when choosing the location.
8. Be sure to note any other considerations, such as
aesthetics or privacy concerns, that may affect the
safety or enjoyment of using the spa.
If you set up the spa outside:
1. You should check your local building codes con-
cerning the use of outdoor spas.
2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.
An extension cord cannot be used with the
spa.
3. The spa should be close to a source of water.
4. We recommend that you place the spa on a water
and stain resistant, non-slip surface.
5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It
must be able to support the weight of the spa
when it is filled with water, plus the weight of the
occupants. the spa weighs approximately 2,339
pounds when filled with water.
6. Think about environmental factors, such as rain,
wind, shade, sunlight, and so forth.
7. You should be able to monitor the use of the spa
from your home, to prevent unauthorized use by
children.
8. Be sure that there is room around the spa to per-
mit servicing of the unit. The diameter of the tub is
