Reach in and pull the drain assembly through by a few
inches. Carefully unscrew the black outer drain knob and
then unscrew and remove the front door panel.
Pictured to the right is the inside of the spa behind the
front door. The electrician now has access to connect the
spa for power. While the front door is off, refer to page 7
for instructions on ensuring the plumbing fittings are secure
(but do not be tempted to over-torque or over-tighten these
fittings).
Pull the drain pipe through the front door panel, reattach the black outer drain knob and pull the drain assembly back inside
so that the knob is flush with the panel again. Reattach and screw panels back in. (Front door first, then corner panels)

240 Volt Electrical Installation

All 240V spas must be permanently connected (hard wired)
to the power supply. See the GFCI and wiring requirements
on page 5.
These instructions describe the only acceptable
electrical wiring procedure. Spas wired in any other
way will void your warranty and may result in serious
injury.
When installed in the United States, the electrical wiring of
this spa must meet the requirements of NEC 70 and any
applicable local, state, and federal codes.
The electrical circuit must be installed by an
electrical contractor and approved by a local building
or electrical inspector.

Failure to comply with state and local codes may
result in fire or personal injury and will be the sole
responsibility of the spa owner.
The power supplied to the spa must be on a dedicated
GFCI protected circuit as required by NEC 70 with no other
appliances or lights sharing the power.
Use copper wire with THHN insulation. Do not use aluminum
wire.
Use the table below to determine your GFCI and wiring
requirements.
Wires that run over 100 feet must increase wire gauge to
the next lower number. For example: A normal 50 amp
GFCI with four #6 AWG copper wires that run over 100 feet
would require you to use four #4 AWG copper wires.
