4.1 Outdoor Location
In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that you
take into consideration:
The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder
weather).
The pathway to and from your spa (this should be free of debris so
that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa).
The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and
birds could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).
A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can result
in lowered operation and maintenance costs).
The overall enhancement of your environment. It is preferable not to
place the spa under an unguttered roof overhang since run-off water
will shorten the life expectancy of the spa cover.
For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not
specically tied into main structural support, consult a professional
Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.
4.2 Indoor Location
For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before
installing a spa indoors:
Proper Foundation: Consult a Structural Engineer when
considering a foundation that will adequately support the spa
the entire time it is in place. Proper support is critical especially
if the spa is to rest on a second story or higher. For spas that are
to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specically tied
into the main structural support, you should consult a professional
Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.
Proper Drainage: It is extremely important to have in place

sure the ooring in which the spa rests on has adequate drainage
and can handle the entire contents of the spa. Be sure to make
provisions for ceilings and other structures that may be below the
spas installation. Areas around your spa can become wet or moist so
all ooring and subsequent furniture, walls and adjacent structures
should be able to withstand or resist water and moisture.

an Engineer or authority competent enough to understand the
necessary provisions needed to vent moist or heated air and air
associated with chemical odors outdoors. When the spa is in use
considerable amounts of moisture will escape, potentially causing
mold and mildew over time which can damage certain surfaces and/
or surroundings.
