Installation Instructions; Location - Marquis Vector21 Owner's Manual

LOCATION

For your vessel to function properly and safely, it must be located on a
hard, flat, stable, and level surface on a 6" to 8" (152mm to 203mm) thick
concrete pad that can support 200lbs. per square inch. Inground vessels
require special installation techniques and should be planned in conjunc-
tion with your authorized dealer. Improper installation can result in structural
damage to the vessel and the voiding of your vessel warranty. Items to
discuss with your dealer include: Local construction codes, electrical ser-
vice requirements, serviceability of equipment present underground ob-
structions such as gas, water, and telephone lines, safety measures such
as fences and locks, and visibility of the vessel installation from the home,
street, and neighbors.
Do not shim your vessel. If your pad is not level you must pour a top cap:
contact a professional.
• Allow for sufficient water drainage around the vessel to help preserve
the equipment and support structure. This includes indoor installations.
• A filled vessel can weigh up to 25,000 LB (11 340 KG) and the location
should support the weight of the filled vessel.
• The vessel contains equipment on both ends. Your vessel MUST be
installed to permit access for servicing the equipment above and/or
below any decks or floors. Access is essential and must allow adequate
room for service. To facilitate repairs, Manufacturer or its agent may
require access to vessel equipment. It is your responsibility to provide
unencumbered access. See vessel diagrams for location of power
supply.
• Leave access to the circuit breakers in the sub panel.
• Be sure the vessel is level and in the final position BEFORE filling with
water. Check for power cords, tools, and hoses that may be caught
underneath the vessel. Do not apply power to the vessel before it is
completely filled with water. Damage to the pumps, heater and sensors
may result.
• IMPORTANT: DO NOT LET AN EMPTY VESSEL REMAIN EX-
POSED TO DIRECT SUNLIGHT.
Vessel surface temperatures can reach in excess of 180°F (82°C) if left
exposed to the sun. Significant damage can occur if this is allowed to
happen, including warping and blistering of the surface. Damage, that
occurs as a result of this exposure, is not covered under the warranty.
• CAUTION: Never try to move a vessel that has not been fully drained.
To do so could result in damage to the spa and physical injury to the
mover. Cracks in the vessel surface, exterior siding or base due to
improper transport or support of the vessel are not covered under the
warranty.
