Jacuzzi J - 230 User Manual

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 

• 

specifically tied into main structural support, consult a professional 

Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before 
installing a spa indoors:

 Consult a structural engineer when 

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 specifically tied 

into the main structural support, you should consult a professional 

Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

 It is extremely important to have in place 

measures to sufficiently handle excessive water spillage. Be 

sure the flooring 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 flooring and subsequent furniture, walls and adjacent structures 

should be able to withstand or resist water and moisture.

 Proper ventilation should be discussed with 

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.
