ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
To ensure you will have an opportunity to use your spa soon after delivery, it is very important that the required
electrical service has been installed. THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
IMPORTANT: All electrical circuits must be installed by a qualified, licensed electrician.
Some spa models are available as 110 volt or 230 volt convertible heating systems. These models come standard
from the factory with 110 volt heating systems; however, with the addition of a subpanel and a control box wiring
change, they can be converted to 230 volt operation. See the following sections for the electrical requirements for
110 volt operation, and 230 volt converted operation.
110 VOLT 15 AMP OPERATION REQUIREMENTS
Sereno & Fantasia Models: The heater will provide approximately 1000 watts of heat only when the pump is
operating in LOW speed and the thermostat is calling for heat. NOTE: The heater does not operate when the pump
is on high speed.
It is highly recommended that the 110 volt spa models be on a dedicated 15 amp, 110 volt circuit.
All 110 volt models come equipped with approximately 13 feet (4 m) of usable power cord. (This is the maximum
length allowed by ETL.) When the spa is installed, the power cord will come out of the bottom of the equipment
compartment.
In addition to the dedicated 15 amp, 110 volt GFCI protected circuit, your spa requires a 15 amp single receptacle.
This receptacle should contain an outdoor-rated, weather-resistant receptacle cover plate. The single receptacle
and cover plate should be installed by your electrician prior to the
delivery of your spa.
For your safety, when your electrician is installing the electrical
outlet, it should be no closer than five feet (1.5 m) and no farther
than ten feet (3 m) from the spa. (Reference National Electric Code
680-6a(1) and 680-41a.)
WARNING: Do not connect your spa to an extension cord!
The 110 volt GFCI switch and the receptacle must be protected
from weather and landscape sprinklers–they should never get wet.
Your spa has been carefully engineered to provide maximum safety
against electric shock. Remember, connecting the spa to an improperly wired circuit will negate many of its safety
features.
110 VOLT 30 AMP CONVERSION (SERENO ONLY)
Benefit when converting to a 30 amp system: The heater will provide approximately 1000 watts of heat when the
pump is operating in LOW or HIGH speed and the thermostat is calling for heat.
Converted models require a 30 amp, single phase, 110 volt circuit breaker in the main electrical service panel.
Converted spas must be wired in accordance with applicable local and national electrical codes. All electrical work
must be done by a licensed electrician.
NOTE:
THIS CONVERSION REQUIRES THE USE OF A SUBPANEL TO SUPPLY POWER AND PROTECT
THE SPA. The subpanel containing a GFCI breaker must be purchased separately.
230 VOLT 50 AMP (CONVERTED SERENO )
Benefit when converting to a 230V 50 amp system: The heater will provide approximately 4000 watts of heat when
the pump is operating in LOW or HIGH speed and the thermostat is calling for heat.
All 230 volt models require a 50 amp, single phase, 230 volt circuit breaker in the main electrical service panel.
All 230 volt spas must be wired in accordance with applicable local and national electrical codes. All electrical work
must be done by a licensed electrician.
NOTE:
THIS CONVERSION REQUIRES THE USE OF A SUBPANEL TO SUPPLY POWER AND PROTECT
THE SPA. The subpanel containing a GFCI breaker must be purchased separately.
