Thank you for purchasing Praxis Bathware. For best results, 
please read and follow all directions carefully. 

INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, 
ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS.

WARNING- When using this unit, basic precautions should 
always be followed, including the following:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit 
children to use this unit unless they are closely supervised at 
all times.

3. Use this unit for its intended use as described in this 
manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by 
manufacturer.

4. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.

5. Do not operate unit without guard over suction fitting.

6. The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that 
is protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). 
Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should 
be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the 
test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the 
reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to 
operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI 
disrupts power to the bath without the test button being 

pushed a ground current is flowing indicating the risk of 

electrical shock. Do not use this hydro-massage bathtub. 
Disconnect the hydro-massage bathtub and have the 

problem corrected by a qualified service representative 

before using.

7. A grounding lug is provided on the exterior of the control 
panel (where applicable) and pump to permit connection of 
a No. 8 solid copper bonding conductor between this unit
and all other electrical equipment and exposed metal in the 
vicinity, as needed to comply with local requirements.

8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Inspection: 

Upon receipt of the Whirlpool Bath, inspect 

it thoroughly for damage or shortage. Verify that the 

unit specifications are correct. If damage or shortage has 

occurred notify the distributor or freight carrier immediately.

Under no circumstances should a damaged or defective 
unit be installed without prior factory approval. Neither 
Praxis Companies nor the distributor will be responsible for 
removal or re-installation costs should replacement of the

factory water tested, the shipping process may result in 
damage to, or loosening of the pipe joints and connections.

Keep the unit covered during and after installation to 
prevent damage to the surface of the bath.

Do not lift the unit by the piping. Lift only by the bath’s deck.

Never attempt to run the pump/motor while the whirlpool
