INSTALLATION MANUAL SAFETY 5
Use a pressure washer to clean any component
of the COVANA cover. This could result in
premature wear or damage.
CAUTION
Be sure to follow all instructions in this manual
and use only COVANA-approved accessories
and tools.
Do not roll the COVANA cover onto its side or
slide it on its side. This will damage the siding.
After removing a part, always place it in a safe
place on a clean and level surface to ensure
proper functionality.
All four posts of the COVANA cover must be
properly anchored to the swim spa frame using
the tub mounting brackets and arms.
This product mainly contains steel, plastic,
copper (Cu), fiberglass, foam and aluminum (Al).
Please recycle them properly.
For the battery-operated option or the emergency
backup option, both are powered by a
rechargeable sealed lead acid battery. Please
recycle it properly.
Avoiding the risk of electrocution
ELECTRICAL DANGER
Failure to comply with these instructions may
result in death by electrocution or serious injury.
Disconnect or turn off and secure all power
supplies before starting any intervention on the
COVANA cover.
For AC operated model: A disconnect mean
needs to be incorporated into the fixed wiring at
the time of installation. This mean must be
accessible to the user or service technician to turn
the power off for future maintenance or repair.
Always have a licenced electrician contractor
perform any electrical maintenance or repairs on
the COVANA cover. The wiring must comply with
all applicable electrical codes and regulations.
For AC-operated models: The COVANA operator
must be connected to a circuit that is protected by
a dedicated ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
that complies with all applicable local electrical
codes and regulations.
Install the COVANA cover in such a way that
drainage directs water away from the electrical
components and base mechanical components.
Do not connect any auxiliary components to the
electrical system of the COVANA cover unless
they have been approved by COVANA.
Replace electrical components with original
components provided or approved by COVANA.
Ask your dealer for replacement parts.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace all
damaged cables immediately. Failure to do so
may result in death or serious personal injury due
to electrocution.
Do not bury any electrical cables. A buried cable
may result in death or serious personal injury due
to electrocution if direct burial-type cable is not
used, or if improper digging occurs.
ELECTRICAL WARNING
for AC-operated model
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the green-
colored terminal or the terminal marked “g,” “gr,”
“ground,” “grounding” or with a ⏚symbol located
inside the supply terminal box or compartment
must be connected to the grounding means
provided in the electric supply service panel with
a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the
circuit conductors supplying the equipment.
One bonding lug is installed on one non-motor
jack. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect
the COVANA cover bounding lug to the local
common bonding grid in the area. Use terminals
with an insulated or bare copper conductor no
smaller than No. 6 AWG (4.11 mm).
All field-installed metal components, such as
rails, ladders, drains or other similar hardware,
within 10 ft (3 m) of the swim spa must be bonded
to the equipment grounding bus with copper
conductors no smaller than No. 6 AWG (4.11
mm). (NEC art. 680.)
WARNING REGARDING DRUG OR
ALCOHOL USE
The use of drugs or alcohol while operating the
COVANA cover is strictly prohibited. The
impairment of judgment, vision or hearing might
affect the safety of other people or result in death.
