Where To Place The Equipment System; Connecting Pipes Between Spa And Equipment - Sundance Spas Spas Installation Instructions Manual

Where To Place The Equipment System

The equipment system must be located within forty (40)-running feet
of the spa. If an existing gas heater is to be used, this equipment
system should be placed near the gas heater.
If the equipment system is to be installed above the spa's normal
water level, it will require the available strainer pot housings to help
achieve prime. Order and install two each of part numbers 6472-619,
6560-006, and 6560-004.
The equipment system base should not be set on the ground. A
separate concrete pad is preferred, but any platform which serves to
permanently keep the system from contact with the ground is
acceptable. Do not install the equipment system in a depression where
casual water may stand after a rain or lawn sprinkling.
If the equipment system is to be exposed to direct sunlight and you
are in a hot climate, you will need to shade the equipment system to
protect it from the excessive temperatures of the mid-day sun.
Connecting Pipes Between Spa And
Water piping between the spa and the equipment system should be 2"
diameter or larger Schedule 40 PVC or heavier. The use of 90 degree
elbows should be minimized. Instead use two 45 degree elbows or,
better still, gradual flex hose sweeps to make turns when possible.
The pipes on the Sundance spa shell are color coded. Connect the
equipment components to these pipes as follows:
Dual-speed Pump-Suction----------Red
Dual-speed Pump- Discharge-------Blue
Single-speed Pump-Suction---------Orange
Single-speed Pump-Discharge-------Yellow
Air Blower-----------------------------Green
Check with the local Building Department to ensure that your planned
installation meets the code requirements.
