Page 13: Choosing A Location
J-200 Choosing A Location IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa, water and users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the spa rests be smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight, without shifting or settling, for the entire time the spa is in place. If the spa is placed on a surface which does not meet these requirements, damage to the skirt and/or the spa shell may result. -
Page 14: Outdoor Location
J-200 Outdoor Location In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that you take into consideration: • The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder weather). • The pathway to and from your spa (this should be free of debris so that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa). - Page 15 J-200 • Proper Drainage: It is extremely important to have in place measures to sufficiently handle excessive water spillage. Be sure the flooring in which the spa rests on has adequate drainage and can handle the entire contents of the spa. Be sure to make provisions for ceilings and other structures that may be below the spas installation.
