DANGER To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product
unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING - RISK OF CHILD DROWNING. Extreme caution must be exercised to
prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children
cannot use a spa or hot tub unless they are supervised at all times.
DANGER To reduce the risk of injury to persons, do not remove suction fittings.
Spa location must accommodate sufficient drainage of water around the base of the
structure, as well as the power source compartment.
Prolonged immersion in water that is warmer than normal body temperature can result
in a dangerous condition known as HYPERTHERMIA. The causes, symptoms,
and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above
the normal body temperature of 98.6BF. The symptoms of hyperthermia include
dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal
temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include (1) unawareness of
impending hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3) failure to recognize the need to
exit spa, (4) physical inability to exit spa, (5) fetal damage in pregnant women, (6)
unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning. WARNING The use of alcohol,
drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs
and spas.
DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from all
metal surfaces. (A spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each
metal surface is permanently connected by a solid copper conductor attached to
the wire connector on the terminal box that is provided for this purpose. Refer to
NEC and local codes in effect at the time of installation.)
A pressure wire connector is provided on the control box to permit connection of a
solid copper bonding conductor between this point and any equipment, metal
enclosures of electrical equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet
(1.5m) of the unit as needed to comply with local requirements.
Bond accessible metal to the dedicated connector on the equipment grounding bus,
bond the equipment ground bus to the local common bonding grid as part of the
installation in the form of (1) a reinforced concrete slab for support, (2) a ground
plate provided beneath the hot tub or spa, or (3) a permanent ground connection
that is acceptable to the local inspection authority.
DANGER RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Do not permit any electrical appliance,
such as a light, telephone, radio, or television, within 5 feet (1.5m) of a spa or hot
tub.
To reduce the risk of injury:
The water in a spa or hot tub should never exceed 104BF (40BC). Water temperatures
between 100BF (38BC) and 104BF (40BC) are considered safe for a healthy adult.
Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10-15
minutes) and for young children.
Excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during
the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit
spa or hot tub water temperatures to 100BF(38BC).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
!
!
!
!
!

Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature
with an accurate thermometer.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead
to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high
blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a
physician before using a spa or hot tub.
Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub
since some medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
This appliance is provided with a ground-fault-circuit-interrupter located on the control
box. Before each use and with the unit operating, push the test button. The unit
should stop operating and the reset button should appear. Push the reset button.
The unit should now operate normally. If the interrupter does not perform in this
manner, a ground current is flowing indicating the possibility of electrical shock.
Disconnect the power, or unplug from receptacle, until the fault has been
identified and corrected.
Connected to a grounded, grounding type receptacle only. NEVER connect the spa to
an extension cord.
Do not bury the cord.
WARNING To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace damaged cord immediately.
A terminal marked “G” or “ground” is provided in the wiring box located inside the
equipment compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the
terminal or connector to the grounding terminal of your electrical service or supply
panel with a continuous green insulated copper wire in accordance with National
Electric Code Table 250-95 and any other local codes in effect at the time of the
installation.
The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated switch or circuit
breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors to comply with Section 422-30
of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 1987. The disconnecting means
must be readily accessible to the tub occupant but installed at least 5 feet (1.5m)
from the tub water.
WARNING - Do not install indoors. This unit uses a gas heater that requires proper
ventilation and is intended for outdoor use only.
Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from tub water using nonmetallic plumbing. Install blower
no less than 1 foot (305mm) above the maximum water level to prevent water
from contacting electrical equipment. Install in accordance with the installation
instructions.
To reduce the risk of drowning from hair and body entrapment, install a suction
fitting(s) with a marked flow rate in gallons-per-minute that equals or exceeds the
flow rate marked on the equipment assembly.

HEATER OPERATION
The control system may be supplied with one of three different
heater configurations: 5.5kw electric, 11kw electric or Gas
Heater Ready. In all cases a Gas heater circuit has been
provided in the event a gas heater is to be used to “boost” the
heat output of the system.
For reference a covered 300 gallon spa will heat at a rate
described below based on the heater wattage used.
5.5kw (5500w) - A heat rise of 6-8°F can be expected
11kw (11,000w) - A heat rise of 12-16°F can be expected
Gas Heater - Heat rise varies based on wattage of gas heater
(5.5kw = 18766 BTU/hr)
