The Palio II™ Portable Whirlpool Spa requires a 115
VAC 20 AMP capacity electrical supply. If the wiring of the
circuit in which your spa is connected is not sized properly
for 20 AMPs, or if the outlet used is too distant from the main
service panel, there may be a considerable voltage drop.
Such a voltage drop would not only cause the unit to
malfunction, but it may also cause permanent damage to
the spa's electrical system.
Before operating your spa, therefore, we recommend
that you test the spa's intended electrical supply circuit for
sufficient voltage. To do this, you will need as AC voltage
meter and a small electrical appliance rated at 1200 (min.)
- 1600 (max.) watts, such as a toaster or small heater. With
the appliance turned off, plug it into the receptacle and take
a voltage meter reading from the adjacent receptacle. Next
turn on the appliance to its maximum setting and again
measure the voltage as before. The difference between
the two voltage readings must not be more than 5%. For
example, if the "OFF" voltage is 115, the "ON" voltage must
not be below 109. If there is a voltage drop of more than 5%
or if there is less than the 105 V minimum operating voltage
at the receptacle, the electrical supply is insufficient. The
minimum voltage must be maintained during spa operation.
If your test reveals insufficient electrical supply, several
solutions are possible; First, you could have your electrical
supply upgraded and provide a dedicated, properly wired
circuit with 20 AMP capability to be used for the spa only.
Second, you can install a transformer which would boost
your existing power supply. We recommend that you seek
the advice and services of a qualified electrician who can
determine your particular electrical needs for installation of
your spa.
