SPAS NOT SUITABLE FOR INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: SPAS WITH A RADIUS ABOVE 12”

If your spa has a radius corner over 12” and up 

to 17” you must install the optional VacuSeal 

Extended Bracket System Part #VSLAESA. 

See “Optional Accessories” It includes 2 brackets 

that add support to the primary Mounting Brackets 

This is an optional part that comes independently 

packaged for large radius spas.

The VacuSeal Trademark along with US Patent Nos. 8,468,617, 8,479,325, 8,516,625, and 8,516,626, plus 

other US & Foreign Patents Pending are owned by Hot Tub Products LLC

IMPORTANT FOR SWIM SPAS ONLY

Installing the VacuSeal System on Swim Spas 

includes multiple covers and 2 lifters. The 

installation is no different than a VacuSeal 

System on a traditional hot tub but requires you 

to follow these steps.

1.  Install one VacuSeal Lifter & Cover on one 

side of the swim spa before installing the 

second Lifter.

2.  After the first Cover is installed push the 

second cover firmly against it during the 

final positioning process to prevent a gap 

between the two covers each time you 

open and close the cover. A m.ajor benefit 

to the VacuSeal System is that the cover will 

always return to their original position if 

installed correctly

CAUTION

1.  Flush mounted spas. A minimum of 4” clearance required. See Fig 2.

3.  Spas longer  than 96” (8’) on both sides. For oversized covers  

See “Optional Accessories”

5.  Swim Spas longer than 264” (22’)

7.  Round spas, or those with a corner radius larger than 17”.  

To determine radius, see Figure 1.
