Electrical Specifications
Important – Qualified and licensed electricians must perform all electrical
hookups. The following specifications must be followed in order to ensure proper
performance and safety.
WARNING: Starting an incorrectly wired hot tub could cause severe damage
to the mechanical equipment or even bodily harm. Have your
licensed electrician verify GFCI wiring with the diagrams on
pages 10-13 prior to starting the hot tub or call the technical
support line at 800.749.8003.
Caution: Failure to abide by specifications listed may result in damage to the
equipment and will void the warranty.
All hot tubs must be wired with the appropriately sized wiring. Failure to do so will
cause equipment damage and will not be covered under your warranty.
All hot tubs must be over current protected with a built-in GFCI in the service
