Indoor Installation

In addition to the Outdoor installation
consideration, please also understand that the
following considerations apply when installing
your PowerPool™ indoors:
1. Indoor PowerPool™ promote high
humidity. Using either ventilation fans or
commercial grade de-humidifiers will help
to reduce the humidity. Consult your
dealer for details.
2. Floor drains must be provided near the
PowerPool™ to drain off water that
8
PowerPool™
may cause falls and /or water damage.
Water will splash out of the PowerPool™
during normal use when swimming and
when exiting the PowerPool™.
3. Surface area of foundation pad and
surrounding area should be flat with a
non-skid finish. Carpeting or other
porous materials may retain moisture,
which leads to mold, mildew and odors
and is not recommended.
4. Walls, ceilings, woodwork should be made
of materials capable of withstanding high
humidity.
5. MAAX® Spas only recommends the use of a
concrete foundation pad to support your
PowerPool™. If you intend to install your
PowerPool™ in an area where you cannot
utilize a concrete foundation pad, you
must consult with a structural engineer
to ensure the floor load bearing capacities
are adequate to support the concentrated
PowerPool™ weight, the weight of the
PowerPool™ occupants, and any furniture
or people that will be using the immediate
area of the PowerPool™.
6. During shipment from the factory,
plumbing components may loosen;
therefore it is imperative that the
PowerPool™ is double checked for leaks
before installing to avoid possible water
damage. Your dealer may include this
service in their installation procedures.
7. Indoor sunrooms are capable of
maintaining high ambient temperatures
which may affect the PowerPool™ water
temperature. It is NOT recommended that
you operate your filter cycles for longer
than 4 hours per day under these
conditions.
Danger: Electrical shock risk. Install at least
5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal surfaces.
