Installation advice
ACCESS TO THE LOCATION - DELIVERY
Ensure the accessibility of the point of delivery and the possibility of transporting the spa on a trolley to its point of
installation. Make sure there are no obstacles (wall, hedge, gate, steps…) and inform your dealer before delivery.
Transport the spa carefully to the intended installation point. Four people are generally needed to perform this operation
properly.
UNPACKING
Make sure you do not scratch the shell by using sharp instruments to unpack the spa. Start by puncturing the packaging in
the middle of the spa (on the empty volume).
PREPARATION OF THE SUPPORT BASE
Make sure that the support base is properly level.
If the spa is installed outside (for example on a lawn), make the support base with a stabilized bottom that will guarantee its
stability and
withstand a load of 400kg/m² for PARES and a load of 600kg/m² for Marami
.
We recommend pouring a 10cm thick concrete slab.
If the spa is placed on a surface that does not meet these requirements, damage to the shell, structure or the surrounds of
the spa could occur. Any damage caused by an inadequate base is not covered by the warranty of the manufacturer. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the spa to ensure the integrity of the support base over the course of time.
SEMI-EMBEDDED
INSTALLATION
Make sure that only the base of the spa is embedded and that the side panels remain clear. For this type of installation, we
recommend providing a clearance of approximately 40cm and installing removable platforms (made of marine plywood or
other material) that not only finish off the installation from an aesthetical standpoint, but which also enable the panels to be
removed more easily in the event of after-sales service.
INSTALLATION INDOORS
In the case of installation indoors, it is necessary to make allowance for the fact that water evaporation can lead to a big
increase in the level of humidity. Natural or forced ventilation contributes to maintaining the level of comfort and
preventing damage caused by humidity in the home.
The manufacturer declines any liability in the event of damage due to an excessive level of humidity, leaks or water
overflow. We recommend you use a qualified installer.
PREPARATION OF THE HYDRAULICAL CONNECTIONS
DRAINAGE: The spa is equipped with a bottom valve with a 40 mm dia connection. To drain the water, connect a hose up to
the valve or make a fixed connection with the drain pipe. You can also use an independent system to be fitted with
precaution in the spa (immersed pump or water aspirator). Before draining the water off into the public drainage system,
check the local regulations in force.
FILLING: In order to fill the spa, it is advisable to use a hose and position one end in the filtration skimmer. It is imperative to
fill the spa at its final location. Moving a spa filled with water is prohibited and is likely to cause irreparable damage not
covered by our warranty.
