Outdoor Installation
The following considerations apply when
installing your Swim spa outdoors:
1. Local codes pertaining to fencing.
2. Local electrical and plumbing codes.
3. View from your house.
4. Wind direction.
5. Exposure to sunlight.
6. Location relationship to trees (twigs,
leaves and shade).
7. Dressing and bathroom location.
8. Storage area for maintenance
equipment and chemicals.
9. Location to facilitate adult supervision.
10. Landscaping and night time lighting.

Indoor Installation
In addition to the Outdoor installation
consideration, please also understand that
the following considerations apply when
installing your Swim spa indoors:
1. Indoor Swim spas promote high
humidity. Using either ventilation fans or
commercial grade de-humidifiers will
help to reduce the humidity. Consult
your dealer for details.
2. Floor drains must be provided near
the
Swim spa to drain off water that
may cause falls and /or water
damage. Water will splash out of the
Swim spa during normal use when
swimming and when exiting the
Swim spa.
3. Surface area of foundation pad and
surrounding area should be flat with a
non-skid finish. Carpeting or other
porous materials may retain moisture,
which leads to mold, mildew and odors
and is not recommended.
4. Walls, ceilings, woodwork should be
made of materials capable of
withstanding high humidity.
5. MAAX® Spas only recommends the use
of a concrete foundation pad to support
your Swim spa. If you intend to install
your Swim spa in an area where you
cannot utilize a concrete foundation pad,
you must consult with a structural
engineer to ensure the floor load bearing
capacities are adequate to support the
concentrated Swim spa weight, the
weight of the Swim spa occupants, and
any furniture or people that will be using
the immediate area of the Swim spa.
6. During shipment from the factory,
plumbing components may loosen;
therefore it is imperative that the
Swim spa is double checked for leaks
before installing to avoid possible water
damage. Your dealer may include this
service in their installation procedures.
7. Indoor sunrooms are capable of
maintaining high ambient temperatures
which may affect the Swim spa water
temperature. It is
NOT
recommended
that you operate your filter cycles for
longer than 4 hours per day under these
conditions.
Danger: Electrical shock risk. Install
at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal
surfaces.
