Ultimate Series Spa Lighting and Sensor Installation

Ported Spa Light (12V)
Ported spas are spas factory installed in a wooden cabinet for above ground installation. Because of this, most
of these spas are ordered with a traditional 12V spa light system which requires little on-site installation. In fact
the only steps necessary for installation are running two wires from the electrical port (located at the back of the
spa) to the control box on the equipment skid. (Please see routing instructions below for proper installation.)
12V Light Routing
1. Locate the electrical port at the back side of the spa.
2. Locate the light wires. (Black and white wire bundle.)
3. Layout the light bundle to see if enough wire is provided to reach the control box. (Located on the
equipment pack.)
4. Extend wire length if necessary to reach the control box.
5. Run light wire in conduit (generally in the same conduit as the topside control panel and temperature sensor)
to the control box.
6. Connect the black and white light wires to the appropriate "12V Light location" on the terminal block inside
the control box. (See Figure 30 for example)
Note: Terminal block location may vary in each control box. Always refer to the wiring diagram located on the
inside cover of the control box lid for proper connection location for that system.
7. Turn on power and test light by pressing the light button on the topside control panel.
Topside Control Panel and Sensor Installation
Topside control panels are factory installed on the spa shell. The next few steps to complete the installation
should be performed along with installation of the temperature sensor and 12V spa light wiring (if applicable).
All of these components are generally installed using the same conduit.
