Installation Instructions; Location - Marquis Spas Destiny Owner's Manual

LOCATION

For your portable spa to function properly and safely, it must be located on a
hard, flat, level surface. Inground spas require special installation techniques
and should be planned in conjunction with your authorized Marquis Spas
dealer. Improper installation can result in structural damage to the spa and
the voiding of your spa warranty. Items to discuss with your dealer include:
Local construction codes, electrical service requirements, serviceability of
equipment, present underground obstructions such as gas, water, and
telephone lines, safety measures such as fences and locks, and visibility of
the spa installation from the home, street, and neighbors.
Do not shim your spa. If your pad is not level you must pour a top cap: contact a
professional.
• Allow for sufficient water drainage around the spa to help preserve the
equipment and support structure. This includes indoor installations.
• A filled spa can weigh up to 4,000 pounds and the location should
support the weight of the filled spa.
• Locate the equipment compartment where it will be accessible. Your
spa MUST be installed to permit access for servicing the equipment
above and/or below any decks or floors. Access is essential and must
