WARNING SIGN
Warning Sign Must Be Posted – The red
WARNING sign like the one shown is packed
with your new hot tub. This sign must be posted
in a prominent place in close proximity to the hot
tub installation site immediately upon completion
of hot tub installation.
Important: It is extremely important that this sign be permanently placed in clear
view of persons using the hot tub. Occasional hot tub users may not be aware of
some of the dangers hot water poses to pregnant women, small children,
seniors, and people under the influence of alcohol. If you did not receive a
warning sign or your sign has become damaged, please call your local dealer for
a replacement.
HYPERTHERMIA
To reduce the risk of injury, the water temperature in a hot tub should never
exceed 104˚F (40˚C). Water temperatures between 100˚F (38˚C) and 104˚F
(40˚C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are
recommended for young children, senior citizens, persons with sensitivities, and
when hot tub use exceeds 10 minutes.
WATER TEMPERATURE IN EXCESS OF 100˚F (38˚C) MAY BE INJURIOUS
TO YOUR HEALTH.
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level
several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6˚F (37˚C). The
symptoms of hyperthermia include drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the
internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include:
Unawareness of impending hazard
Failure to perceive heat
Failure to recognize the need to exit hot tub
Physical inability to exit hot tub
Fetal damage in pregnant women
Unconsciousness and danger of drowning
If you sense any of the symptoms of hyperthermia, safely exit the hot tub
immediately.
