Choosing a Location
Proper placement of your spa is key not only to enjoying it, but also taking
care of it. Whether you choose to place you spa outdoors or indoors, there are
some basics that must be followed.
Make sure the location is free of obstacles that may interfere with delivery.
A clear pathway makes placement a breeze. e pathway should be minimum
of 4’ wide, free of obstruction from things like tree limbs, heat pumps, and
power lines. Check to be sure gate openings are wide enough for the spa to
pass through without damaging the spa.
Consider the weight of the spa. You must have the proper foundation to
support not only its dry weight, but also its weight when lled with water and
people.
Consider the proximity to the doors of the house especially in cold weather.
Be sure there is a pathway to the spa that can be easily maintained in
inclement weather.
Keep your spa away from landscaping sprinklers, roof overhangs and
guttering. Keeping drainage of water away from the spas foundation is
important.
Consider the negative eects of wind, exposure to the sun and the location of
trees to minimize the eects of falling debris and shade if the spa is outdoors.
Manufacturer’s Recommended Installation
When placing your spa outdoors, the manufacturer recommends that your
Home & Garden Spa be placed on a reinforced concrete pad that is at least
four inches thick and large enough to accommodate the entire spa. e
concrete should cure for a minimum of 72 hours before placing the spa on the
pad. You should place your spa so the electronics and other components are
easily accessible when servicing your spa. Structural damage that occurs to
your spa that results from an inadequate foundation is not covered under your
warranty so its important that you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.
To allow for adequate drainage away from the spa,
Concrete should slope 1/2” over 10’ from the center.
