230 VOlT CONVERSION
INSTRUCTIONS
Hot spring spas must be wired in accordance with all applicable local
electrical codes. All electrical work should be done by an experienced,
licensed electrician. We recommend the use of appropriate electrical
conduit, fittings, and wire for all circuits.
Refer to the following instructions to convert from 115 volt to 230 volt
ImporTanT:
converting the spa to 230 volt operation will require both
an authorized Hot Spring service agent and a qualified electrician.
Required Part: A Subpanel (230 volt convertable) available from your
Hot Spring dealer.
1. disconnect the power cord from the house receptacle.
2. open the equipment compartment door.
3. Remove the screws on the front of the spa control box.
4. open the control box cover.
5. Identify Terminal block
located in the lower
left-hand corner inside
the control box.
6. Refer to illustration,
Step 1. Remove the 2
pin jumper attached to
terminals
4 and 5.
7. Refer to illustration,
Step 1. Remove the
wire jumper from
terminals 2, and 6.
8. Refer to illustration,
Step 2. Remove the
power cord wires from
5, 7 and gRd (not
illustrated).
9. unscrew the power
cord strain relief and
remove the power cord from the access hole in the control box.
WarnInG:
do not allow pliers to contact any electronic components
inside the control box.
converting from 115 volts to 230 volts changes the voltage supplied
to the heater from 115-volts to 230 volts. The jet pump will continue to
operate at 115 volts.
Have your licensed electrician wire subpanel from a 50A Main Service,
then from subpanel into the spa's control box using the following illustration
or use the wire diagram on the inside of the control box lid.
ImporTanT:
The subpanel must be placed in sight of the spa, at a
minimum distance of 5 feet away.

Remove wire jumper from 2 & 6.
Remove the three power cord wires from
terminal block 5,7 and gRd. leave Terminal
Block Power Jumper 6-7 in place.

INSTAllATIoN
INSTRucTIoNS
All 115 volt Hot Spring
®
spa
models come equipped with
approximately 15 feet of
useable power cord (this is
the maximum length allowed
by underwriters laboratory
and the National electric
code). When the spa is
installed, the power cord will
come out of the bottom of
the equipment compartment
door. For your safety, when
the electrician is installing
the 20 amp single electrical
outlet and waterproof cover,
the outlet should be no closer
than 5 feet (1.5 meters) and
no farther than 10 feet from
the spa [reference National
electrical code 680-6a(1) and 680-41a].
The ground Fault circuit Interrupter (gFcI) is located at the end of
the power cord. This device is for your protection. It is very important
to protect it from rain and other moisture. Test once a month, with the
plug connected to the power supply,
1. Push the “TeST” button on the gFcI breaker. The spa should stop
operating and the gFcI power indicator will go out.
2. Wait 30 seconds, then push the “ReSeT” button. Power will be
restored to the spa and the gFcI power indicator will turn on.
If the gFcI fails to operate in this manner, your spa may have an
electrical malfunction, and you may be risking electrical shock. Turn off
all circuits and do not use the spa until the problem has been corrected
by an authorized service agent.
WarnInG:
Removal of the gFcI from the spa’s power cord will
result in an unsafe spa and will void the spa’s warranty.
IMPoRTANT: Should you ever find the need to move or relocate your
Hot Spring ® spa, it is essential that you understand and apply these
installation requirements. your Hot Spring spa has been carefully
engineered to provide maximum safety against electric shock.
Remember, connecting the spa to an improperly wired circuit will
negate many of its safety features.

•
In the 115 volt configuration, either the heater, or the jet pump can
operate, but they can’t work at the same time. In a 115 volt system,
as long as the jet pump is activated, the heater will not turn on. on
the other hand, when the spa is converted to operate in the 230 volt
configuration, the heater and jet pump can operate simultaneously.
•
The heater will operate at 1500 watts when the spa is configured as
a 115 volt cord-and-plug connected model, and at 6000 watts when
the spa is configured as a 230 volt converted model heating your spa
water faster.
