Pre-Delivery/Install Checklist

The Best Foundation...

Your new spa needs a good solid foundation. The area your spa sits on must be able to support the spa,

the water in it and those who use it. A concrete foundation is more effective than a reinforced deck. If

the foundation is inadequate, it may shift or settle after the spa is in place, causing stress to the shell or

components.

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.

If you choose to install your spa indoors, pay close attention to the flooring beneath it. Always remember a

spa is filled with water. Choose flooring that will not be spoiled or ruined from water damage. Check with your

contractor to verify your flooring can support the weight and water spills or splashing from your spa.

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.

Electrical Requirements 110V Only Spas

A GFCI cord is supplied with most spas. Your spa must be wired with a GFCI either on the cord or on the

outlet, but not both. Follow all local, state and federal electrical codes. Use only a line with a dedicated 15

Amp breaker. This line cannot be shared with any other appliances while the spa is running or the breaker

will trip immediately. DO NOT use extension cords between the wall outlet and the spa or the breaker will trip

immediately and can be a potential fire hazard. The plug should be easily accessible to users. The receptacle

should be protected from the weather. Metal surfaces within 5 feet of the spa must be grounded to the spa.
