INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Remember, your new spa is a powerful piece of electrical and plumbing equipment. You owe it to yourself,
your family and your friends to install it correctly and safely. Before attempting to hook-up or use your
spa, please read the following instructions.
POSITIONING OF YOUR SPA - CONSIDERATIONS
Your spa is completely self-contained. Therefore, you can situate it just about anywhere; on a patio, in or
on a deck, in a basement or sunroom. It comes completely pre-plumbed and water tested from the
factory. Never lift or carry the spa by the plumbing. Damage could occur which would not be covered
under warranty.
You should take into account the following when selecting prospective spa sites in order to maximize
enjoyment.
To avoid any personal injury or damage to your spa, have 4-5 people ready to assist you to move the spa
to its' final location. Use a moving dolly and/or straps to more evenly distribute the spa's weight. Never lift
or carry the spa by its' plumbing.

Leisure Manufacturing Inc. 2014 Owner's Manual
Local building, property and electrical codes may affect your installation.
Gates, overhangs, fences, gas meters, and AC units may become
obstructions. You may need to access from a neighbour's yard or employ
a crane.
Trees, bushes, flowers etc. can all add to spa maintenance.
The location could add to your spa maintenance (removing snow from
cover) and increase operating costs.
More privacy during use and serves as a wind break but may also add
more maintenance.
Any surface that is slippery when wet could be dangerous for bathers both
entering and exiting the spa.
View when using a lounger & ease of access for servicing.
These may flood the spa area, damage spa or create a safety hazard to
bathers.
You will need a place to safely drain the spa and a way to refill it easily.
These may take up added space that you must plan for (cover
remover/holder).
