CHOOSING A LOCATION FOR THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA
There are many factors to consider when choosing a location to set up the hydrotherapy spa. These factors vary
depending on whether you use the hydrotherapy spa inside or outside. We have listed several factors you may
wish to consider as you decide where you want to use the hydrotherapy spa.
If you set up t e ydrot erapy spa inside:
1. The hydrotherapy spa will increase the level of
humidity in your home. The location you choose
should be well ventilated. You may need to install
a ventilation fan or use a dehumidifier.
2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.
Do not use an extension cord wit t e
ydrot erapy spa.
3. The hydrotherapy spa should be close to a source
of water.
4. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa on carpet or
other material that may be damaged by moisture.
We recommend that you place the hydrotherapy
spa on a water- and stain-resistant, non-slip sur-
face with a floor drain for any water that may
splash from the hydrotherapy spa.
5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It
must be able to support the weight of the
hydrotherapy spa when it is filled with water, plus
the weight of the occupants. The hydrotherapy
spa weighs approximately 2 pounds when
filled with water.
6. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa above a finished
living area, due to the risk of water damage.
7. Be sure that there is room around the hydrothera-
py spa to permit servicing of the unit. The dimen-
sions of the spa are: 5’1 ”W x 6’4”L x 2’6”H. You
should allow for this size when choosing the loca-
tion.
8. The hydrotherapy spa is not designed for in-floor
installation. However, it is compatible with a deck
system that is built flush with the top of the spa,
provided you leave access to the motor for ser-
vice.
9. Be sure to note any other considerations, such as
aesthetics or privacy concerns, which may affect
the safety or enjoyment of using the hydrotherapy
spa.
If you set up t e ydrot erapy spa outside:
1. You should check your local building codes con-
cerning the use of outdoor spas.
2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.
Do not use an extension cord wit t e
ydrot erapy spa.
3. The hydrotherapy spa should be close to a source
of water.
4. We recommend that you place the hydrotherapy
spa on a water- and stain-resistant, non-slip sur-
face. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa on rough
or sharp surfaces such as gravel or wood chips.
5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It
must be able to support the weight of the
hydrotherapy spa when it is filled with water, plus
the weight of the occupants. The hydrotherapy
spa weighs approximately 2 pounds when
filled with water.
6. Think about environmental factors, such as rain,
wind, shade, sunlight, and so forth.
7. You should be able to monitor the use of the
hydrotherapy spa from your home, to prevent
unauthorized use by children. You may want to
enclose the spa with a fence and self-latching
gate to prevent unauthorized use.
8. Be sure that there is room around the hydrothera-
py spa to permit servicing of the unit. The dimen-
sions of the spa are: 5’1 ”W x 6’4”L x 2’6”H. You
should allow for this size when choosing the loca-
tion.
9. The hydrotherapy spa is not designed for inground
installation. However, it is compatible with a deck
system that is built flush with the top of the spa,
provided you leave access to the motor for ser-
vice.
1 . Be sure to note any other considerations, such as
aesthetics or privacy concerns, which may affect
the safety or enjoyment of using the hydrotherapy
spa.

SET-UP AND ASSEMBLY
Before beginning assembly, carefully read t e
following information and instructions:
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials from the spa shell; do not dis-
pose of the packing materials until assembly is
completed and the spa is in operation.
• Assembly requires two people.
• During assembly, make sure that all parts are ori-
ented as shown in the drawings.
• Read each assembly step before you begin.
•Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
ASSEMBLY REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING
TOOLS (not included):
• One (1) p illips screwdriver
• You may also need some soap or wax.
1. Before beginning assembly, be sure t at you
ave read and understand t e information on
t e previous two pages.
Remove the four cover screws from the access
cover. Remove the access cover from the Spa Unit
(15) by sliding the access cover down and pulling
the bottom of access cover away from the Spa Unit.
Be careful not to damage t e spa s ell.
Remove the Power Cord with the GFCI (36) from
inside the Spa Unit (15).
2. Locate and check the position of the cut-off valves.
Occasionally the valves will be closed at the factory
during manufacturing. The cut-off valves must be
open for proper spa operation. To open the valves,
hold one of the handles and turn the handle until
you can pull it out to the open position. Open the
other valve in the same manner. WARNING: THE

3. Wipe out the spa shell using a damp cloth. Remove
the two warning decals (not shown) from the spa
shell. Before you fill the spa, be sure that it is in the
position you want, and that it can be easily ser-
viced, if needed. Once the spa is filled with water, it
must be drained to be moved.
Using a garden hose or other clean water source,
begin filling the spa. The water temperature does
not matter; however, if you use warm or hot water,
the spa will be ready to use sooner. Fill the spa,
until the water is about four inches below the con-
sole. Do not overfill t e spa.

(2) on the wood panels on the Spa Unit (15). Hold
the Buckle in place so the strap on the Spa Cover
(18) is tight. (Note: It may be easier to position the
Buckle if a second person holds the strap on the
opposite side of the Spa Cover tight.) T e Spa
Cover must be tig t. Do not place t e Buckle
over one of t e grooves in t e wood panels.
Remove the latch. Attach the Buckle to the side of
the spa with two Buckle Screws (1). Note: It may
be elpful to use a drill wit a 1/16” drill bit to
make starter oles in t e wood panels. You may
also want to apply a little soap or wax to t e
screw t reads.
