Swim Spa installa on can be quick and simple if these guidelines are considered in planning the site. Please read the
following informa on carefully. Proper planning will make the delivery and install more economical and e ffi cient and the
proper site selec on will increase your year ‐ round enjoyment.
Access from delivery point to fi nal site: Consider the route from where the unit is delivered to the installa on site. The
steepness of grade, trees, shrubs, gates, roof overhangs, cables and overhead wires need considera on. Outside dimensions
of your model choice can be used to determine clearance required for the move. Review outdoor and indoor installa on
sugges ons prior to choosing your swim spa loca on.
It is common to have swim spas moved with the use of a crane onto the site of your choice. This is an easy solu on to
locate your new swim spa in what may be the most advantageous area of your home, although not accessible with the
normal means.
Surface Requirements: Your swim spa should be placed on a level concrete pad designed to support 26,000 lbs.( 11,793 kg.).
Do not place the swim spa on a dirt surface or directly on the ground. Once you have a loca on selected, there are several
issues you should consider in preparing the site for the swim spa installa on.
A
fl at, level surface strong enough to support your swim spa is mandatory. Once your swim spa is fi lled, it has
considerable weight. Make certain the loca on you choose can support a minimum of 200 lbs (91 kg) per square foot load,
per recommended guidelines. A reinforced concrete slab should be at least four inches thick with the reinforcing mesh or rod
a ached to a bond wire. To check the level of this surface, spray a hose on the surface and check for puddles or run
‐ o ff .
Make the necessary correc ons assuring levelness prior to placement of your new swim spa. Structural damage to the swim
spa resul ng from the incorrect installa on of placement on inadequate founda on is not covered in the swim spa’s limited
warranty.
General Considera ons:
Make sure your dimensions are correct as you prepare the site for your new swim spa. Click onto the web site
(www.pdcspas.com) or call your retailer for dimensions of the model you have chosen. Allow a perimeter of the chosen
ground surface to extend beyond the swim spa itself to provide a clean area for users to get in and out of the swim spa.
The swim spa loca on and the swim spa itself must be level before fi lling with water. Review Installing the Shim
Guidelines included with your swim spa. Instruc ons are also found under the Installa on sec on of this manual. This must
be completed prior to
fi lling your unit with water.
Allow adequate space to access the equipment behind the four access panels on the swim spa cabinet. Review the pages
in this manual referencing swim spa model speci fi ca ons for the loca on of the support equipment for the model you have
chosen.
Leave ample access to the GFCI circuit breaker for tes ng and frequent access.
A quick disconnect (manual disconnect) or GFCI is to be installed between 5 ‐ 15 . (1.5 ‐ 4.6 m) of the spa and within the
line of sight from the unit. Consider where this can be located when selec ng and preparing the spa site. All wiring must
comply with the U.S. Na onal Electric Code.
ALL EQUIPMENT MUST BE GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT PROTECTED (NOT SUPPLIED) AT THE POWER
SOURCE. ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING OF THE SWIM SPA SUPPORT EQUIPMENT MUST COMPLY WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE.
Note loca on of electric source into the unit prior to posi oning on surface.
