SPA START-UP

Please read each step of the Start-up section prior to doing the

step.

SELECTING A LOCATION

In preparation for installing your new Artesian spa, you should

ensure that your chosen location meets some minimum guidelines:

1) Place your spa on a surface that is large enough for the entire spa to

t.Considerthespaceneededtoeasilyaccessequipment

compartments and circuit breakers. Remember, all electronics

must be kept dry.

2) The spa must be on a solid, level foundation. Recommended: 4-

inch cement slab that has cured for at least 72 hours. Your warranty

will be voided if the spa is not properly installed. Structural damage

due to an improper foundation is not covered under warranty.

3) To avoid potential water damage to the skirt and frame, your spa

should be placed on a site where it will not be in the way of water

sprinklers.

4) OUTDOOR SPAS: Consider building codes, electrical and

plumbing codes, desired proximity to house, wind and sun exposure,

location of trees (falling leaves, shade), dressing area, landscaping

and lighting when selecting a location.

5) INDOOR SPAS: Floor surface must have traction to prevent slipping

because of the spa, provide ample ventilation to prevent dry rot,

mildew and mold. Use materials that will withstand humidity. There

spa chemicals may corrode some household metals. Provide ample

room if servicing should be needed. Strong foundational support is

vital, particularly if a second-story site is selected.

6) Ensure the equipment compartment is in a location where it will not

be damaged by water drainage. Cover the equipment compartment

with a heavy screen if rodents are a problem. Damage due to

rodents is not covered under warranty.
