Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub - Sundance Spas Altamar Owner's Manual

Immersion in water in excess of 104°F (40°C) can be hazardous to
your health.
3. Observe a reasonable time limit when using the hot tub. Long ex-
posures at higher temperatures can cause high body temperature.
Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and
reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result in drowning.
4. Do not use the hot tub under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, or
other drugs. Use of the hot tub under these conditions may lead to
serious consequences.
5. Always test the hot tub water temperature before entering the hot
tub. Enter and exit the hot tub slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slip-
pery.
6. Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the hot tub. Never
operate any electrical appliances from inside the hot tub or when
you are wet unless such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.
7. Proper chemical maintenance of hot tub water is necessary to
maintain safe water and prevent possible damage to hot tub
components.
8. Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when not in
use. This will help to discourage unsupervised children from entering
the hot tub and keep the hot tub cover secure in high-wind condi-
tions. There is no representation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or
actual locks will prevent access to the hot tub.

IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa, water and us-
ers, it is extremely important that the base upon which the spa rests be
smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight, with-
out 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. Damage caused by improper
support is not covered under warranty. It is the responsibility of the spa
owner to assure the integrity of the support over time. We recommend a
poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thickness of 4 inches
(10cm). Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is constructed so
that it meets the requirements outlined above.
The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away
from it. Placing the spa in a depression without provisions for proper
drainage could allow rain, overflow and other casual water to flood the
