Planning the Best Location
Safety rst
Do not place your spa within 10 feet (3 m) of overhead power lines.
Make sure the spa is positioned so that access to the equipment compart-
ment and all side panels will not be blocked. Be certain that your installa-
tion will meet all city and local safety codes and requirements.
Consider how you will use your spa
How you intend to use your spa will help you determine where you should
position it. For example, will you use your spa for recreational or therapeu-
tic purposes? If your spa is mainly used for family recreation, be sure to
leave plenty of room around it for activity. If you will use it for relaxation
and therapy, you’ll probably want to create a specic mood around it.
Plan for your environment
If you live in a region where it snows in the winter or rains frequently,
place the spa near a house entry. By doing this, you will have a place to
change clothes and not be uncomfortable.
Consider your privacy
In a cold-weather climate, bare trees won’t provide much privacy. Think of
your spa’s surroundings during all seasons to determine your best privacy
options. Consider the view of your neighbors as well when you plan the
location of your spa.
Provide a view with your spa
Think about the direction you will be facing when sitting in your spa. Do
you have a special landscaped area in your yard that you nd enjoyable?
Perhaps there is an area that catches a soothing breeze during the day or
a lovely sunset in the evening.
Keep your spa clean
Prevent dirt and contaminants from being tracked into your spa by placing
a foot mat at the spa’s entrance where the bather’s can clean their feet be-
fore entering your spa. You may also consider keeping a small water-lled
basin nearby for bathers to rinse their feet before entering your spa.
In planning your spa’s location, consider a location where the path to and
from the house can be kept clean and free of debris.
