INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: Original Chill ™ hot tubs
General
This product is designed for private outdoor use only. The tubs have a frame and transport pallet
for transport. It needs to be removed before the final placement of the tub. Do not lift the tub from
its brims. The tub should always be lifted from its bottom. In case the tub has been supplied
sideways, it needs to be turned to the correct position as soon as possible, so that the tub does not
become oval and the bottom will not come off from the sides.
INSTALLATION
Making the foundation
It is important to place the tub on an even surface that can bear the whole weight of the tub
(approx. 1800kg). The foundation can be evened out e.g. with chips (picture below) or if you want a
more solid foundation, it can be cast of concrete or covered with slabs. Do not install any tracks
under the tab in an EPS-based tub, but the bottom of the tab shall be on an even surface which is
completely load-bearing. NB! A terrace shall have a thick boarding or a slab under the tub. Remove
all vegetation from under the tub so that they do not penetrate the tub structures as they grow.
It is also important to see that the tub will not be surrounded by lawn or grass for a long time,
because it will prevent the wood from breathing and it promotes rotting. The base in an EPS-based
tub can be covered with earth, as long as the ends of the wooden side panels get to breath.
Note possible maintenance operation when selecting the position for the tub. It must be possible to
move the tub wherever necessary, even if it is embedded in a terrace, for example. The guarantee
will not cover any indirect costs, such as removal or construction of terraces.
Water discharge
The water discharge is the pipe (2 ½” female thread) on the opposite side of the stove. Where the
supplied shut-off valve with a 38 mm hose coupling is installed. Plan the location of your tub so that
the water discharge will not cause any problems. Guide the water to the side with hoses – hoses
with a 38 mm ID can be used.
Separately you can purchase a middle drain kit that can be used to
move the drain between the tub and the heater.
