Owner’s Manual

This Owner’s Manual will acquaint you with the operation and general maintenance of your new spa. We suggest that you
take some time to carefully review all sections. Please keep this manual available for reference.

If you have any questions about any aspect of your spa’s set-up, operation or maintenance, contact your authorized Watkins
dealership. They are trained professionals who are familiar with the product as well as new spa ownership concerns. Their
expertise will facilitate the enjoyment of your new spa.

The serial number/identification label is located within the equipment compartment of your  spa. The serial number should also
be documented on the delivery receipt from your dealer.

In most cities and counties, permits will be required for the installation of electrical circuits or the construction of exterior surfaces (decks and gazebos).

In addition, some communities have adopted residential barrier codes which may require fencing and/or self-closing gates on the property to prevent

unsupervised access to a pool (or spa) by children under 5 years of age. Your spa is equipped with a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91

Standard for Safety Covers, and as a result, is usually exempt from most barrier requirements. As a general practice, your local Building Department will

inform you of any applicable barrier requirements at the time a permit is obtained for the installation of an electrical circuit. Your authorized dealer can

provide information on which permits may be required.
