ELECTRICAL PREPARATION
All electrical wiring must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and with all local codes. All wiring shall be done
by a qualified electrician. Run one, two or three branch circuits (as required) from the main electrical service panel to the pump area
of the framing structure to provide power to the unit.
Electrical components have specific wiring requirements. Refer to the matrix below for the electrical supply requirements for the jet
massage bathtub and factory installed components.
Branch circuits must be rated for 110 – 120 volts. Use 12 Gauge, 3 conductor cable for the circuits. If the length run exceeds 100
feet check with local codes for requirements. Install moisture proof junction box(s) 6” above the floor at the pump end of the framing
for each circuit.
NOTE: DO NOT INSTALL THE JUNCTION BOX(S) WHERE IT CAN BE REACHED WHILE SITTING OR STANDING IN THE TUB OR
TOUCHING THE FAUCETS.

GENERAL GUIDE-THROUGH
•
Install tub waste/overflow according to instructions (see page 10).
•
Standard installation - After framing is a complete (see attached diagrams), set product in place to make certain that the tub can
be properly leveled. (Caution: If a walk-in bathtub is not resting on all leveling feet, water will not drain properly and may cause
the door to leak) (see page 7).
•
Verify the product’s level by checking tub’s deck surface and ensure all leveling feet are touching the ground (see page 7).
•
Electrical connection is made pre-instruction on specified models.
•
After plumbing and electrical connections have been made, the tub should be cleaned of dirt and debris.
•
Installation is not complete until the tub has been tested in place.
