8. Make Electrical Connections
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, connect the pump and in-line
heater (if heater option included) to properly grounded, grounding-type receptacles protected by
Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupters (GFCI's). Do not remove the plugs' grounding pins. Do not use
grounding adapters.
Pump Wiring
NOTE: The whirlpool model number is printed on a label near the whirlpool pump. This label also
identifies the electrical rating of the whirlpool.
Your Kohler whirlpool bath is equipped with a cord and plug. All wiring of the pump and control has
been completed at the factory. A licensed electrician must install a GFCI-protected, 120 V, 15 A, grounded
outlet. No other load should be on this circuit. Locate the outlet behind the whirlpool, and within 24"
(61cm) of the pump.
Plug the pump into this outlet.
NOTE: Make sure the air actuator tubing is securely attached to the pump, and is not kinked or damaged.
If a K-1639 Timer Kit will be used, install it now according to the instructions packed with the timer kit.
In-Line Heater Wiring
The in-line heater is equipped with a cord and plug. All wiring of the heater has been completed at the
factory. A licensed electrician must install a GFCI-protected, 120 V, 15 A, grounded outlet. No other load
should be on this circuit. Locate the outlet behind the whirlpool, and within 24" (61cm) of the heater.
Plug the in-line heater into this outlet.
9. Test Run the Whirlpool
Check all electrical connections, and make sure the electrical power to the whirlpool and in-line heater (if
equipped) is on.
Make sure all union connections to the pump and in-line heater (if if equipped) are securely hand
tightened.
Fill the whirlpool to a level at least 2" (5.1cm) above the top of the highest jet.
Verify that the pump banding straps have been cut (if applicable), and that the pump is resting directly on
the subfloor or whirlpool base.
Operate the whirlpool for 5 minutes, and check all whirlpool piping connections for leaks.
For additional information on whirlpool operation, refer to the "Confirm Proper Operation" section.
