Most  cities  and  counties  require  permits  for  exterior 

construction and electrical circuits. In addition, some 

communities have codes requiring residential barriers 

such as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property 

to  prevent  unsupervised  access  to  the  property  by 

children. Your dealer can provide information on which 

permits may be required and how to obtain them prior 

to the delivery of your spa.

Before Delivery

Plan your delivery route
Choose a suitable location for the spa
Lay a 5 - 8 cm concrete slab
Install dedicated electrical supply

After Delivery

Preparing for Your New Portable Spa

Pre-Delivery Checklist

Planning the Best Location

Safety First

Consider How You Will Use Your Spa

Plan for Your Environment 

Consider Your Privacy 

Provide a View with Your Spa

Keep Your Spa Clean

Allow for Service Access

Do  not  place  your  spa  within  10  feet  (3  m)  of 

overhead power lines.

How  you  intend  to  use  your  spa  will  help  you 

determine where you should position it. For example, 

will you use your spa for recreational or therapeutic 

purposes?  If  your  spa  is  mainly  used  for  family 

recreation, be sure to leave plenty of room around 

it  for  activity.  If  you  will  use  it  for  relaxation  and 

therapy, you will probably want to create a specific 

mood around it.

If you live in a region where it snows in the winter 

or  rains  frequently,  place  the  spa  near  a  house 

entry. By doing this, you will have a place to change 

clothes and not be uncomfortable.  

In a cold-weather climate, bare trees won’t provide 

much  privacy.  Think  of  your  spa’s  surroundings 

during  all  seasons  to  determine  your  best  privacy 

options. Consider the view of your neighbors as well 

when you plan the location of your spa.

Think about the direction you will be facing when 

sitting in your spa. Do you have a special landscaped 

area in your yard that you find enjoyable? Perhaps 

there  is  an  area  that  catches  a  soothing  breeze 

during the day or a lovely sunset in the evening. 

In planning your spa’s location, consider a location 

where the path to and from the house can be kept 

clean and free of debris.
Prevent  dirt  and  contaminants  from  being  tracked 

into  your  spa  by  placing  a  foot  mat  at  the  spa’s 

entrance  where  the  bathers  can  clean  their  feet 

before entering your spa.

Make sure the spa is positioned so that access to 

the equipment compartment and all side panels will 

not be blocked. 
Many people choose to install a decorative structure 

around their spa. If you are installing your spa with 

any  type  of  structure  on  the  outside,  such  as  a 

gazebo, remember to allow access for service. It is 

always  best  to  design  special  installations  so  that 

the spa can still be moved, or lifted off the ground.
