Most cities and counties require permits for exterior construction and electrical circuits. In addition, some
communities have codes requiring residential barriers such as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property to
prevent unsupervised access to the property by children. Your dealer can provide information on which permits
may be required and how to obtain them prior to the delivery of your Cal Spa.

Planning the Best Location For Your Spa
Safety First
Do not place your spa within 10 feet (3 m) of over -
head power lines.
Make sure the spa is positioned so that access to the
equipment compartment and all side panels will not
be blocked. Be certain that your installation will meet
all city and local safety codes and requirements.
Consider How You Will Use Your Spa
How you intend to use your spa will help you de-
termine where you should position it. For example,
will you use your spa for recreational or therapeutic
purposes? If your spa is mainly used for family rec-
reation, be sure to leave plenty of room around it for
activity. If you will use it for relaxation and therapy,
you’ll probably want to create a specific mood around
it.
Plan for Your Environment
If you live in a region where it snows in the winter
or rains frequently, place the spa near a house entry.
By doing this, you will have a place to change clothes
and not be uncomfortable.
Consider Your Privacy
In a cold-weather climate, bare trees won’t provide
much privacy. Think of your spa’s surroundings dur-
ing all seasons to determine your best privacy op-
tions. Consider the view of your neighbors as well
when you plan the location of your spa.
Provide A View With Your Spa
Think about the direction you will be facing when
sitting in your spa. Do you have a special landscaped
area in your yard that you find enjoyable? Perhaps
there is an area that catches a soothing breeze dur-
ing the day or a lovely sunset in the evening.
Keep Your Spa Clean
Prevent dirt and contaminants from being tracked
into your spa by placing a foot mat at the spa’s en-
trance where the bather’s can clean their feet before
entering your spa. You may also consider keeping a
small water-filled basin nearby for bathers to rinse
their feet before entering your spa.
In planning your spa’s location, consider a location
where the path to and from the house can be kept
clean and free of debris.
Allow For Service Access
Many people choose to install a decorative structure
around their spa. If you are installing your spa with
any type of structure on the outside, such as a gaze-
bo, remember to allow access for service. It is always
best to design special installations so that the spa can
still be accessed.
