To be certain your deck can support your spa, you must know the deck’s maximum load capacity. Consult a qualified building
contractor or structural engineer before you place the spa on an elevated deck or indoors. To find the weight of your spa, its contents
and occupants, refer to the Spa Specification chart. This weight per square foot must not exceed the structure’s rated capacity, or serious
structural damage could result.

No matter where you install your new spa, it’s important that you have a solid foundation to support it. Structural damage to the spa
resulting from incorrect installation or placement on an inadequate foundation is not covered under the spa’s limited warranty.
If you install the spa outdoors, a reinforced concrete pad at least four inches thick is recommended. The reinforcing rod or mesh in the
pad should be attached to a bond wire (see your Owner’s Manual).
If you place the spa on the ground, even temporarily, place stepping stones under the leveling areas (see Spa Leveling Instructions in
your Owner’s Manual). The stones should be at least two inches thick and twelve inches square. Even with stones in place, the spa will
inevitably settle and become unlevel. A spa surrounded by dirt or grass will soon be filled with dirt or grass from users’ feet; therefore,
it is important to get the spa onto a solid foundation as soon as possible.

First, locate the dimensions of your spa on the following page. The dimensions shown are the
measurements of the spa in the vertical position, laid on its side.
Next, contact your dealer to find the height and width added by the delivery cart which the
dealer will use to deliver your new spa. Use the height of the cart plus the dimension shown as
H to determine the vertical clearance required to pass the spa and cart. Use the width of the cart,
or dimension W, whichever is greater, to determine the maximum width of clearance necessary.
NOTE: It may be necessary to allow for additional over-head clearance if the spa will be rolled
up or down an incline or moved up or down a short flight of stairs.
Use the information on the following page to determine the requirements for access to your
desired location.
