J-200

1.0  Important Spa Owner Information

Your Jacuzzi J-200 Collection spa is constructed to the highest standards 

and is capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However, 

because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the spa for 

efficient operation, an uncovered spa surface and wall fittings directly 

exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period are 

subject to permanent damage. Damage caused by exposing the spa 

to this abuse is not covered under warranty. We recommend that you 

always keep the spa full of water when it is exposed to direct sunlight 

and that you keep the Jacuzzi premium insulating cover in place at 

all times when the spa is not in use. Read and carefully follow the 

requirements for your spa’s support base found in Section 4.0 titled, 

“Choosing A Location” (page 9).

Jacuzzi constantly strives to offer the finest spas available, 

therefore modifications and enhancements may be made which 

affect the specifications, illustrations and/or instructions contained 

herein.
