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.
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT A QUALIFIED,

Electrical Requirements 115V spas
A GFCI cord is supplied with your spa. 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.
