THIS TUB MUST BE TESTED FOR OPERATION AND LEAKS PRIOR TO ENCLOSURE OF SURROUNDING 

AREAS. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL VOID WARRANTY.  THIS TUB WAS WATER TESTED AT THE FACTORY 

AND FOUND TO BE FULLY OPERATIONAL AND LEAK FREE PRIOR TO SHIPPING. FREIGHT HANDLING AND 

JOB SITE EXPOSURE MAY HAVE DETERIORATED THE TUB’S CONDITION. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF 

THE INSTALLER TO THOROUGHLY TEST THE UNIT PRIOR TO INSTALLATION. TUBS ARE INTENDED, AND 

WARRANTIED, FOR INDOOR USE ONLY.

TEST PROCEDURES

1.   Place the tub on a flat surface such as the driveway.
2.   Seal the drain with tape.
3.   Fill tub to overflow and allow tub to stand for five minutes 

without the pump runing

. Examine all 

fittings carefully for leaks. 

NOTE:

 The overflow is a plumbing device designed to prevent water from 

reaching a certain level in your tub. DO NOT, under any circumstances, tape off or block the overflow 

in any way. Any controls located above the normal water line are designed to be water-resistant, not 

water-proof. The controls will not leak under normal usage, however, they are not warranted against 

leaks when improperly used or subjected to conditions for which they were not designed. 

4.   Plug the pump, blower and/or in-line heater into a 110v GFCI outlet. Start the pump, blower and/or 

in-line heater, and check all fittings for leaks.

5.   Check that all optional equipment is functioning properly and that the features on the tub match 

exactly what was ordered.

6.  

If any leaks or operating problems are discovered, do not complete installation until 

problems are resolved. MTI Baths will not be responsible for any costs involved with 

removing or reinstalling the tub, or for the costs of any surrounding materials.

See troubleshooting section of this manual.

Always protect tub from construction damage by using a protective cover. Damage, including chips 

and scratches, incurred at the jobsite is excluded from warranty.

 Do not store tub in temperatures below 

32 degrees Fahrenheit. Proper waste and overflow installation is the responsibility of the installer.  MTI does 

not warrant leaks associated with improper waste and overflow installation.
