THE CANADIAN SPA COMPANY OWNERS MANUAL
Positioning of your spa
When selecting a site for your spa, take into account the following:
A) Local Codes:
There may be certain restrictions and/or requirements that are particular to your locality. If in doubt, check with your local
council.
B) Delivery Passageway:
The spa will arrive as a unit, and cannot be disassembled. Ideally the spa will be placed on a trolley, either on its side or on
its base. The unit will then be rolled into place easily crossing grass, gravel, and small terrain anomalies. For safe and
non-intrusive installation, we require an opening not less than the size of your spa (see dealer for current sizes) plus at least
40cm height for the trolley and a minimum of 5cm clearance on each side. If your access does not meet these conditions,
or in the case of other obstacles (steps, fences, walls, steep hills, etc.) contact Canadian Spa Company for advice and
conditions.
C) Location & Base:
A sheltered environment can result in lower operating and maintenance costs. You must allow 1 meter clearance for
access to the spa’s access panel for servicing.
• The site you select for your spa MUST be a flat, level continuous surface that fully contacts the bottom of the spa.
• Your new spa weighs between 300-450kg when dry, and when filled to capacity weighs 900-2300kg. Therefore a solid
support is essential when the spa is mounted on a deck or ground level patio/floor. We recommend that you install your
spa at ground level. This allows easy access to equipment.
• A 10 to 15cm thick re-enforced concrete slab is ideal, but not required. In most cases your spa can be placed on
properly installed existing patios.
• The base must be at least the size of the bottom of your spa (see dealer for current sizes).
• Water should always drain away from the spa. DO NOT locate your spa in a low run-off area since melting snow or rain
could flood the area and cause pump and equipment damage.
• DO NOT situate spa near or under overhead wires, keeping clear of all electrical appliances.
Installation and Electrical Hookup:
Have a licensed electrician run the required 230-volt power line to the spa installation site. This power line must be
permanently connected (hard-wired) to the mains supply. Do not use extension cords or plug-in type connections. At
the site where the spa is to be located leave 5 meters of cable and the appropriate cable gland. All electrical wiring to a
spa must be installed by a qualified, licensed electrician, and meet local building/electrical codes. A certificate from the
electrician verifying it has been tested must be obtained.
PLEASE NOTE: Failure to supply the recommended power will void the Manufacturer's Warranty !
• For all spas the power supplied must be red protected dedicated supply - see page 4 for supply rating
To connect your spa follow these instructions: Ensure that the power supply is shut off prior to hook up. To be
done by qualified personnel only:
1) Remove the wooden access panel from the front of the spa cabinet.
2) To access the power terminal strip, remove the cover from the control box.
3) Feed the mains power supply into the box through one of the removable cable entry points. Fit the cable gland to the
box and connect securely to the panel.
4) Connect wires to terminal block. All wires must be connected and tightened securely, or damage may result.
5) Replace the control box cover. Electrical hook-up is now complete.
6) A Green coloured terminal or a terminal marked Ground is located in the supply terminal box/compartment or on the side
of the box. This terminal must be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service panel with a
continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying the equipment, to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
7) "BONDING LUGS" are provided on the external surface of the supply terminal box/compartment. All field installed
metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or other similar hardware within 3 m of the spa or hot tub must be
bonded to the bonding lugs with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the supply conductors.
