INSTALLATION
Outdoor Installation — Ground Level or Above
You may install your spa and equipment pack so the spa is at ground level or above. The unique characteristic of the
equipment pack, which allows your spa system to be located away from the spa itself, is that it is designed to allow flexibility
in installation. This means that you can locate your spa on a level higher than the equipment pack, as long as the total
combined horizontal and vertical length of the plumbing lines between the equipment pack and the spa is no more than 20
feet, and as long as the equipment pack base is less than 5 feet below the spa rim.
Support Method
Particularly in deck installations, make sure the floor supporting the spa is strong enough to bear the load of the spa,
which is approximately 4345 lbs. which includes weight of spa occupants, water and product. Consult an architect or engineer
to determine the adequacy of your floor or deck to support this amount of weight. Build wooden seat supports as instructed
in "Indoor Installation".
Draining the Spa
As in other installations, you can install a permanent drain valve in the suction line; this will allow the spa to drain into
a sanitary drain, storm drain, or drain field, (See illustrations of suggested drain valve fittings on page 4.) Consult local codes.
