Owner`s manual

INSTALLATION NOTES:

• If stepping stones or railroad ties are selected for the spa foundation, they

should be placed at the designated leveling areas of your spa to maintain

even distribution of the spa weight.

• It is important to note that soft surfaces, even when stepping stones are

used to distribute the weight of the spa as evenly as possible, will still have

a tendency to settle unevenly, resulting in an unlevel spa.

• Remember, placing the spa on grass or dirt may increase the amount of

debris which is inadvertently brought into the spa water on the user’s feet.

If you are purchasing a deck package or a gazebo with your spa, a solid

foundation becomes mandatory. Placing them on any surface other than a

single level pad could create problems with their installation. Pictured at right

are a few of the recommended surfaces.

As a homeowner, it is your responsibility to provide a suitable, level foundation

for your spa. Keep in mind that most delivery crews are not equipped to level

and prepare spa sites.

If you are interested in having a concrete slab, brick surface, or wood deck installed, your Solana

dealer

should be able to suggest a qualified, licensed contractor.

NOTE: In order for the spa to operate properly and for the internal plumbing to drain completely, you must ensure that the spa is

leveled after it has been installed. The diagram on the following page indicates the recommended shimming points on your spa’s base

support system. Your Solana spa delivery crew can help you perform the procedure.
