Pre-Delivery/Install Checklist
Point of Entry for Electric Service
Installations can vary greatly from spa to spa,
therefore the manufacturer does not have any
predetermined entry points for electrical
service. The installer will need to determine
the best point of entry, and create an entry
point. Any of the 4 walls or the spa base can
be drilled through to make this access point.
Prior to drilling, be sure that there are no
components on the interior of the cabinet that
will possibly be damaged or in the way while
making the hole. The manufacturer
recommends that some form of moisture
barrier is used at the hole to prevent water
from entering the spa. As long as all the
above criteria are met, this will in no way void
the warranty that is included with the spa.
GFCI and Wiring Requirements
•The power supplied to the spa must be on a
dedicated GFCI protected circuit as required by
ANSI/NFPA 70 with no other appliances or lights
sharing the power.
•Use copper wire with THHN insulation. Do not use
aluminum wire.
•Use the table on the next page to determine your
GFCI and wiring requirements.
•When NEC requires the use of wires larger than #6
AWG, install a junction box near the spa and use #6
AWG wire between the junction box and the spa.
•Wire runs over 85 feet must increase wire gauge to
the next lower number.
•Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the
fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
Testing the GFCI Breaker
Test the GFCI breaker prior to first use and
periodically when the spa is powered. To test the
GFCI breaker follow these instructions
1. With spa operating, press the TEST button on the
GFCI. The GFCI will trip and the spa will shut off.
2. Reset the GFCI breaker by switching the breaker
to the full OFF position, wait a moment, then turn the
breaker back on. The spa should have power again.
240 Volt Electrical Installation
(North America 60hZ)
WARNING
The electrical circuit must be installed by an
electrical contractor and approved by a local
building or electrical inspector. Customer must
provide a disconnect in the fixed wiring.
Failure to comply with state and local codes may
result in fire or personal injury and will be the
sole responsibility of the spa owner. Improper
installations present hazards which can result in
personal injury or property damage and void the
warranty on the spa. Spa jumpers and dip
switches are preconfigured for a 240V
installation.
•All 240V spas must be permanently
hardwired to the power supply.
•Spas must be wired using this procedure.
Any variance from these instructions will void
your warranty and may result in serious injury.
•When installed in the United States, the
electrical wiring of this spa must meet the
requirements of National Electric Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-2008 and any applicable local,
state, and federal codes.
