Position the spa away from glass and/or reflective sur-
faces in order to avoid possible damage to its panel-
ling.

The customer must make provisions for a ground drainage

point (

) of suitable dimensions and that can be inspected

for any cleaning that may be required.

ATTENTION: Before preparing the drainage system
to connect the spa to, consult the local authorities
about the regulations for disposing of chemically
treated water.

Jacuzzi® spas are equipped with a drain as in

1-8

part.A-C

and

For periodic emptying of the spa you can connect a rubber

hose to the drain valve (

1-8

part.A-C

and

9).

NOTE:

To open the valve, turn the ring nut counter-clockwise and

pull.

If you decide to attach the spa to the drain, it is advisable to connect
upstream from the valve (for greater flow capacity) and to install a
shutter valve near the drain in an accessible area

According to the type of installation chosen the ground drain-

age point will then be put into position. The Jacuzzi® spas can be
installed in a variety of ways:

Free standing

on the floor or on a specifically prepared base

(

10).

Semi-built in

, so that only the base of the spa is built-in and

therefore the side cover panels remain free

(

11).

In this case,

it is appropriate to prepare some removable under-frames (in
marine plywood, etc.) that, besides aesthetically completing in-
stallation, allow the panels to be removed more easily.

In any case you will need to provide a support base that is suit-

able for the selected model, taking into consideration the data
contained in the table “Weights”.

In the case of intermediate flooring, terraces, roofs or
other similar structures, consult a building engineer.

(

)

The support base must be flat and level in or-

der to provide uniform support for the weight of the
spa. Otherwise the front panels and/or methacrylate
shell could be damaged: this damage is not covered
by the warranty.

Prolonged sun exposure could damage the material

of which is made the spa shell, due to its capacity to
absorb heat (dark colours in particular). Don’t leave
the spa to sun exposure without adequate protec-
tion when not in use (cover thermal, gazebo, etc.).
Any damage arising by not following these warnings
are not covered by the guarantee.

The evaporation of water in the spa may lead to very
high levels of humidity, particularly when the ambi-

ent temperature is high. Natural or forced ventila-
tion will help preserve the users’ comfort and reduce
damage caused to the building by humidity.

Make sure any paving, furnishings, walls, etc. pres-
ent in areas adjacent to the spa are suitable for use
in the conditions mentioned above.

Jacuzzi Europe refuses all responsibility for any damage caused by
excessive humidity or by overflowing water. Consult a specialist for
indoor installation.

)

If you want to install the spa against multiple

walls, a space must be guaranteed for the removal of the
panels and for any maintenance, and access must be guaran-
teed to the equipment in the tub compartment.

You can use a garden hose to fill the spa.

If the spa is connected, for periodic filling, to the
mains system that supplies drinking water, this con-
nection must be carried out in compliance with the
EN1717 norm, using “AA”, “AB” or “AD” anti-pollution
protection procedures. For further information, we
recommend you contact your water supply company
and/or your plumber.

ATTENTION: (IEC 60335-1) The pressure of the hy-
draulic system that supplies the equipment must
not exceed 600 kPa (6 bar) and, in case water is sup-
plied through solenoid valve(s) (eg. balance tank)
the pressure must have a minimum value of 35 kPa
(0.35 bar).
