All wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the national electrical code and all other 
applicable codes.

WARNING:

When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be observed, including the following:

1. DANGER:  RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

Connect only to a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter.

2. Grounding is required.  The unit should be installed by a licensed electrician and grounded.

3. Install to permit access for servicing.

4. All building materials and wiring should be routed away from the pump body and heater (if equipped). 

The whirlpool should be installed on a 120 vac, 20 amp dedicated circuit.  The circuit should be hard-wired from the 
electrical power supply panel.  The circuit must be a three (3) wire circuit from the electrical supply panel.  A grounded 
neutral wire and a third wire, earth ground, are essential.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION 

INSTRUCTIONS

Install a separate 120VAC / 15AMP dedicated circuit with GFCI 
(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection. With a No. 8 solid copper 
wire, bond the heater to the homes electrical panel or approved local 
bonding point. A bonding lug has been provided on the heater.

   At initial start-up with power ON, push the GFCI test button. The 
reset button should pop out. Push this button in to reset. If the GFCI 
fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground fault or malfunction, 
indicating the possibility of electrical shock. Turn off the power and 
do not use the bath until the source of the problem has been 
identified and corrected.

1. Route two separate branch circuits (figure 1) to the junction 

box near the whirlpool.  *Each branch circuit MUST BE 
GFCI PROTECTED.

2. Use copper conductors only.

3. Insure the heater and pump are properly GROUNDED and 

BONDED as required. Bonding connectors suitable for No. 
8 AWG copper wire are located on both the pump and 
heater assemblies.

a. Using No. 8 AWG copper wire, bond each of these 

assemblies together to the homes electrical panel or 
approved local bonding point.
