INSTALLATION & SET-UP
SELECTING A SITE FOR YOUR POOL
Your Fitness Pool was designed for either
indoor or outdoor use. Whether indoors or
outdoors, please adhere to the following
guidelines:
1. Select a site that is stable and capable of
supporting the weight of your Fitness Pool, its
water, and the people using it. The floor has to
be able to support a load of 1 Tm/m2.If
installed on a suspended floor/deck, it should
be capable of supporting your Fitness Pool. If
you have concerns on this matter, please
contact a qualified Licensed Contractor.
2. Select a surface that is flat and level. This
surface must provide continuous support for
the entire bottom of the Fitness Pool structure.
Do not shim or block up the Fitness Pool
creating voids below the base framework.
3. Avoid installing the Fitness Pool in a pit or
low area where water may accumulate and
damage the Fitness Pool or its equipment.
It is recommended to ensure drainage in the
area of the Spa, to prevent water from
accumulating around it and to avoid
dangerous access areas for bathers.
Remember that the operation of the Spa
causes increased damp and therefore, there
must be a ventilation system to prevent damp
from accumulating which could cause damage
in the room where the Spa is located.
The use of a cover reduces heat loss and damp
in the room.
4. Important: With all installations, the Fitness
Pool must be located at least I,5 meters [5
feet] from all electrical outlets, switches, and
other permanently installed electrical devices.
Indoor Considerations:
There are several considerations when
installing your Fitness Pool indoors:
First, the environment both around and below
the Fitness Pool should be water resistant. It
must be capable of handling water splashed
out from the Fitness Pool as well as the
possibility of a leak from the vessel.
Second, it is recommended that the room you
install the Fitness Pool in has proper
ventilation. Proper ventilation can usually be
achieved by an exhaust fan or a dehumidifier.
Note: Typical indoor surfaces include, but are
not limited to: concrete, wood, non-slip tile, or
linoleum.
Outdoor Considerations:
When selecting an outdoor site, several things
should be considered:
First, avoid selecting a site where excessive
water may contact the Fitness Pool, such as
from sprinklers or a roof edge without rain
gutters.
Second, and if possible, avoid areas of direct,
prolonged sunlight.
The ultraviolet rays of sunlight will tend to
fade and damage your Fitness Pool cover and
cabinet.
xDo not expose the Spa to sunlight
when it is empty and without a
protection cover. Remember that
prolonged exposure to sunlight may
damage the surface of the Spa and its
accessories. Acrylic rapidly absorbs
heat from the sunrays reaching very
high temperatures which will damage
the Spa.
Maximum absorption temperature is
60ºC.
xIt is recommended to place the Spa away
from trees, as falling leaves may block the
filter.
xIf the Spa is placed inside glass
structures, prevent sunrays shining
directly on the Spa through the glass,
as the temperature could be
excessively hot.
