INSTALLATION

bE AWARE:
Damage caused by inadequate or improper foundation support is not covered by the spa warranty.
It is the sole responsibility of the spa owner to provide a proper foundation for the spa.
Make sure the foundation where the spa is placed drains water away from the spa. Proper
drainage will keep components dry from rain and wet weather.
Your spa weight must always be considered when installing your spa. If you are installing it on an
elevated wood deck or other structure, it is advisable to consult a structural engineer or contractor
to ensure the structure will support the weight.
IT IS STRONgLY RECOMMENDED THAT A qUALIFIED, LICENSED CONTRACTOR
PREPARE THE FOUNDATION FOR YOUR SPA.
A reinforced concrete pad at least four inches thick is recommended for your spa. The reinforcing
rod or mesh in the pad should be attached to a bond wire.
iNDOOR iNSTALLATiON:
Be aware of some special requirements if you place your spa indoors. Water will accumulate
around the spa, so flooring materials must provide a good grip when wet. Proper drainage is
essential to prevent a build-up of water around the spa. When building a new room for the spa, it
is recommended that a floor drain be installed. The humidity will naturally increase with the spa
installed. Water may get into woodwork and produce dryrot, mildew, or other problems. Check for
airborne moisture’s effects on exposed wood, paper, etc. in the room. To minimize these effects, it
is best to provide plenty of ventilation to the spa area. An architect can help to determine if more
ventilation must be installed.

chEck ThE DiMENSiONS OF YOUR SPA:
Compare the spa dimensions to the width of gates, sidewalks, and doorways along the delivery
route used to bring the spa into your yard. It may be necessary for you to remove a gate or
partially remove a fence in order to provide an unobstructed passageway to the installation
location. Also, keep in mind—if you are using special equipment to place your spa into an area it
will be necessary to include those measurements and weights.
PLANNiNg A DELiVERY ROUTE:
Check the width of gates, doors and sidewalks to make sure your spa will pass through
unobstructed. You may have to remove a gate or part of a fence to allow for adequate width
clearance. If the delivery route will require a 90-degree turn, check the measurements at the turn
to ensure the spa will fit. Check for protruding gas meters, water meters, A/C units, etc., on your
home which will cause obstructions along the delivery path to your yard. Check for low roof eaves,
over hanging branches or rain gutters that could be an obstruction to overhead clearances.
SPEciAL ciRcUMSTANcES:
The use of a crane for delivery and installation is primarily to avoid injury to your spa, your
property or to delivery personnel. Our customer service may be able to assist you with the
arrangements. Cranes are not considered “normal delivery”.
