INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT LIFT THE HYDRO MASSAGE PRODUCTS BATH
BY THE PLUMBING AT ANY TIME
INSTALLATION
1. Unpack the contents carefully and inspect the bath to verify that it is the correct model, features,
and color, the pump is the correct size ordered and check for visible defects of damage. If there are
problems DO NOT INSTALL. Contact the dealer/manufacturer for further instruction.
2. Construct a nish frame under the bath rim to support the bath lip and keep the deck level, which
will assist water draining from the deck back into the bath. (Note: this is not required for walk-in
baths with metal support structure.) An access panel MUST be provided for pump/control and/
or blower/control to enable nal electrical connections and service. The minimum recommended
access panel(s) size is 18" x 18" next to the pump(s) so the unit(s) can be removed.
3. Drain and overow assembly- The plumber should connect the drain and overow assemblies per
the manufacturer’s instructions. The bath may then be positioned, leveled and connected to the
waste. This should be done to local building codes by qualied personnel.
WARNING: VERIFICATION OF ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MADE
BEFORE INSTALLATION.
DANGER- RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a circuit protected by a
Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter(s) (GFCI) with 120volt, 20amp, 60hertz electrical service with
a service grounded receptacle dedicated for use by the bath.
4. Electrical Service(s)-A licensed electrician must provide the electrical service protected by a
Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter(s) (GFCI) with 120volt, 20amp, 60hertz electrical service with a
service grounded receptacle dedicated for use by the bath. Please refer to model specications for
electrical requirement.
5. GROUNDING IS REQUIRED. The unit should be installed by a qualied service representative and
grounded.
ALL LOCAL AND STATE ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING CODES
MUST BE OBSERVED. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLER/
OWNER TO DETERMINE SPECIFIC CODE COMPLIANCE PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
OF THE PRODUCT.
6. Water testing- Before installing or nishing the installation, it is required that the bath be water tested
and the plumbing checked for leaks. Close the drain and ll the bath with water to the overow
outlet. Check the exposed piping and especially the union connections for signs of leakage. Allow
the bath to sit for an additional 30 minutes and re-inspect. Turn the pump and/or blower on and
operate all features and look for signs of leakage for 30 minutes. Turn the pump and/or blower off
and drain the water.
