Planning the Best Location With a little preparation and care, your spa will give you many years of enjoyment. This booklet has been designed to provide you with all the information you’ll need to ensure a safe and easy spa delivery and installation. Most cities and counties require permits for exterior construction and electrical circuits.
Keep Your Spa Clean Prevent dirt and contaminants from being tracked into your spa by placing a foot mat at the spa’s entrance where the bather’s can clean their feet before entering your spa. You may also consider keeping a small water-filled basin nearby for bathers to rinse their feet before entering your spa. In planning your spa’s location, consider a location where the path to and from the house can be kept clean and free of debris.
Preparing a Good Foundation Your spa needs a solid and level foundation. The area that it sits on must be able to support the weight of the spa, with water and the occupants who use it. If the foundation is inadequate, it may shift or settle after the spa is in place, causing stress that could DAMAGE YOUR SPA SHELL AND FINISH. Damage caused by inadequate or improper foundation support is not covered by the warranty. It is the responsibility of the spa owner to provide a proper foundation for the spa.
Getting Your New Spa Into Your Yard You will be provided with curbside delivery of your spa only. You will need to make arrangements to have the spa moved to where you want to locate it. Depending on your circumstances, you can choose either crane delivery or ground delivery. Crane Delivery The use of a crane for delivery and installation may be necessary if you are unable to provide an adequate delivery route. It is used primarily to avoid damage to your spa or property or injury to delivery personnel.
• 8’ spas need gate clearance of at least 42” wide and 9’ high. • If the delivery route will require a 90º turn, check the measurements at the turn to ensure the spa will fit. • Are there protruding gas meters, water meters or A/C units on your home which will cause obstructions along the delivery path to your yard? • Are there stairs in your delivery route? If so, you must take special precautions to avoid injury or damage to either the spa or any property along the delivery route.
