INDOOR LOCATION
Considerations for selecting an indoor spa location:
• Local building codes for indoor installation of a portable spa
• Adequate space for spa with accessibility for service (Clearance of 3 ft
(1m) around the spa is recommended to permit servicing the unit)
• Proper structural support is critical. Consult a licensed professional
Structural Engineer to determine if the foundation will adequately support
the spa the entire time it will be in place, especially if the spa is to be
placed on a second story or higher, balcony, roof or other platform not
specifi cally tied into the main structural support.
• Proper ventilation (Consult an Engineer or authority who understands
the necessary provisions to vent moist or heated air and air with chemical
odours.
When the spa is in use considerable amounts of moisture escapes, po-
tentially causing mould and mildew which can damage certain surfaces
and surroundings.
POSITIONING YOUR HOT TUB/SPA
When selecting a site for your spa, take into account the following:
A) Local Codes:
There may be certain restrictions and/or requirements that are particular
to yourlocality. If in doubt, check with your local council.
B) Delivery Passageway:
The spa will arrive as a unit, and cannot be disassembled. Ideally thespa
will beplaced on a trolley, either on its side or on its base. The unit will
then be rolled intoplace easily crossing grass, gravel, and small terrain
anomalies. For safe and nonintrusiveinstallation, we require an opening
not less than the width of your spa (seedealer for current sizes) plus at
least 40cm in height for the trolley and a minimum
of 5cm clearance on each side for adequate access. If your access does
not meetthese conditions, or in the case of other obstacles (steps, fences,
walls, steep hills,etc.) contact your dealer for advice and conditions.

locating your spa
C) Location & Base:
A sheltered environment can result in lower operating and maintenance
costs. You must allow 1 metre clearance for access to the spa's access
panel for servicing.
• The site you select for your spa MUST be a fl at, level continuous surface
that fully contacts the bottom of the spa.
• Your new spa weighs between 300-450kg when dry, and when fi lled to
capacity weighs 900-2300kg. Therefore a solid support is essential when
the spa is mounted on a deck or ground level patio/fl oor. We recom-
mend that you install your spa at ground level. This allows easy access to
equipment.
• A 10 to 15cm thick re-enforced concrete slab is ideal, but not essential.
In most cases your spa can be placed on properly installed existing
patios.
• The base must be at least the size of the bottom of your spa (see dealer
for current sizes).
• Water should always drain away from the spa. DO NOT locate your
spa in a low run-off area since melting snow or rain could fl ood the area
and cause pump and equipment damage.
• DO NOT situate the spa near or under overhead wires and keep clear
of all electrical appliances.
