Please take the time to read this booklet carefully, as it will provide you with the information you will need to ensure 

the safe, secure, and timely installation of your new spa. The following sections are guidelines on how to prepare for 

delivery and set-up of your new spa. Specifically covered are site selection, delivery access, ground preparation, and 

electrical requirements.
Remember to carefully read the Owner’s Manual that accompanies your spa, and to complete the warranty card 

within 10 days of delivery. These items, along with other valuable information, will be found in the Owner’s Package 

which has been placed in the equipment compartment of your spa, where you will also find a serial number.

In most cities and counties, permits will be required for the installation of electrical circuits or the construction of 
exterior surfaces (decks and gazebos). In addition, some communities have adopted residential barrier codes which 
may require fencing and/or self-closing gates on the property to prevent unsupervised access to a pool (or spa) by 
children under 5 years of age. Your Caldera

®

 spa is equipped with a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91 

Standard for Safety Covers and as a result, is usually exempt from most barrier requirements. As a general practice, 
your local Building Department will inform you of any applicable barrier requirements at the time a permit is obtained 
for the installation of an electrical circuit. Your 

CALDERA

 dealer can provide information on which permits may be 

required.
