INSTALLATION GUIDE

INSTRUCTIONS​

To help with installation, our hot tubs come with comprehensive assembly videos and a manual- and of course we’re always here to answer questions. If you don’t have time, tools or feel handy enough to install yourself, any local contractor will be able to help you (or we may be able to recommend someone in your area).

THE BASE

Several tonnes (depending on size). For outdoor installation a concrete pad is best, but you can use patio stones or decking as long as they’re strong enough to support the weight and won’t shift. For indoor installations, a concrete basement floor is ideal.

SPACING

Many of our hot tubs don’t actually require much space, making them ideal for urban backyards, small decks and basements. If you have an area of 7 ft by 7 ft, you probably have enough room for a hot tub.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS​

You will need 220V with 40A GFCI. Only the Tub for 2 is available with a 120V, plug-and-play spa pack for indoor use.

Instruction

1. Floor – two sections that include six screws to join them together
2. Wall staves – two or three bundles (depending on the type of hot tub you
purchased) of wooden tongue and groove staves that include three smaller
staves for finishing. Machined staves for Jets, Suctions, Light, and Bubbler
will be labelled.
3. Three or four stainless steel bands with lugs and nuts to hold your hot
tub together.
4. A box containing a vinyl liner.
5. Seat supports and hardware, including wooden seat supports, lag bolts
and washers, red silicone gaskets, and round-headed locator screws.
If you have a 5-foot-deep tub, you will also have supports and hardware
for the footrests.
6. A set of seats with 2 ½ inch screws to attach the seats to the supports.
7. Foil reflecting insulation to fit between the liner and the cedar staves
and floor, and rolls of insulation to wrap the pipes once the installation
is complete. Tape is also provided.
8. A roll of coping.
9. One or two Suction fittings (depending on your hot tub model) and
optional elbows that may be useful during setup.
10. One Light fitting and nut.
11. Jets (4, 6, or 10 Jets depending on your hot tub model) and one or
two 1 ½ inch x 1 ½ inch x 1 ½ inch Tee fittings for the water line.
12. One or two 1 ½ inch x 1 ½ inch x 1 inch Tees and an air intake valve for
each air line.
13. A certified and tested Spa Pack which includes your pump, controller,
heater, keypad, and filter. If you have two Suctions and/or 10 Jets, you
will have additional Tee fittings. If you have a 10 Jet hot tub, you will
also have a 1 ½ inch valve needed during set up.
