Alternate pump location
,
additional on-site assembly will be
required. Refer to the
Supplemental
Assembly
information packaged with
accessory item(s) before continuing.
Electrical Service and Connections
When providing electrical service, basic
precautions should be observed, including
the following:
!
All wiring should be done by a licensed
electrician in accordance with all
applicable local and national codes.
!
The system must be connected to a
dedicated circuit(s) protected by a
ground-fault-circuit-interrupter(s),
(GFCI). (Installer supplied)
!
Properly ground the system.
System Pump Wiring
The field electrical connection is a single
dedicated service line, protected by a
ground-fault-circuit-interrupter (GFCI),
running from the main panel to an
independently mounted junction box with a
20 amp electrical receptacle and a 20 amp
breaker. Junction box mounting and all
field electrical connections must be in
compliance with applicable codes for the
installation site.
Each whirlpool is supplied with a special
whirlpool system control box. The control
box includes a wire lead that is secured to
the on/off control button and attached to
the control box.
A single electrical supply cable with an
attachment plug, extending from the wiring
compartment on the pump/motor, fitted
through a strain relief fitting, is also
supplied as a standard component of the
system. All internal pump/motor wiring
connections have been completed by the
pump/motor manufacturer.
The control box is plugged into the GFCI
circuit receptacle and the pump supply
cable plugged into the pigtail on the bottom
of the control box as shown in Figure 3.
WARNING!
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF WHEN
WIRING THE WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM.
In-Line Heater Wiring
A single electrical supply cable with an
attachment plug, extending from the wiring
compartment on the in-line heater, is
supplied as a standard component of the
in-line heater. All internal wiring
connections have been completed by the
heater manufacturer. The field electrical
connection is a single dedicated service
line, (independent of the pump/motor
circuit), protected by a ground-fault-circuit-
interrupter (GCFI), running from the main
panel to an independently mounted
junction box with an appropriate electrical
receptacle for the in-line heater attachment
plug. Breaker size, junction box mounting,
receptacle selection and all field electrical
connections must be in compliance with
applicable codes for the installation site.
No control box is necessary for the in-line
heater system. All controls are housed
internally in the heater.
After completing all water supply, drain and
electrical connections, use the following
procedure to test the system and all fittings
for leaks.
Step 1:
Thoroughly clean tub of all debris
which could damage the system,
including small particles which
could lodge in the jets or the pump.
ATTENTION INSTALLER!
WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM MUST BE FIELD
TESTED FOR LEAKS BEFORE
FRAMING IS COVERED OR THE UNIT
ENCLOSED.
Whirlpool System Field Testing
Step 2:
Close the drain and fill tub to the
top of trim ring on the highest jet.
Step 3:
Start whirlpool and operate
continuously for 20 minutes. (1
complete timer cycle.) During the
cycle, adjust the air controls
(Figure 5) and the
SELECTAFLOW™
control (Figure
10) through the complete range,
and check each jet for proper
operation. After carefully checking
each jet, fully close the air controls,
SELECTAFLOW™
, and foot and
side jets (see Figures 8 & 9), and
continue running.
Step 4:
After the timer cycle, inspect all
fittings and connections for leaks
before draining.
WARNING!
AVOID OPERATING THE WHIRLPOOL
SYSTEM WITHOUT ADEQUATE WATER
IN THE TUB.
