.

•  Do not use any abrasive cleaners or metal scrapers.
•  FLUSHING INSTRUCTIONS: Whirlpool unit must be flushed every ninety (90) days with a sanitizing chemical such as a spa freshener,   
   algicide or household bleach. Fill tub with water, add sanitizing chemical and allow the unit to circulate for at least 20 minutes.

1. Read and follow all instructions

2. DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this unit unless they 

are closely supervised at all times.

3. Infants should not be permitted in the whirlpool at water temperatures over 100˚ 

Fahrenheit and only with prior medical consultation and permission from your doctor.

4. Pregnant women and persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, or high or low blood 

pressure should not enter the whirlpool tub without prior medical consultation and 
permission from their doctor.

5. For your first whirlpool bath, start with a short duration of five minutes. You can increase 

the time intervals as your body's tolerance adjusts. However, do not use longer than 15 
minutes at any one time.

6. High water temperatures and prolonged periods of use can raise internal human body 

temperature excessively and impair the body's ability to regulate its internal temperature.

7. Check whirlpool before use. Maximum safe temperature is 104˚ Fahrenheit (40˚ Celsius).

8. Observe reasonable time limits to avoid nausea, dizziness, and fainting.

9. Do not direct the water spray to the following body areas in these instances:

 

A. Any area of the body that is swollen, burned, inflamed or where skin eruptions or 

ulcerated sores are present.

 

B. Any area of the body that is sore unless approved by your doctor.

 

C. The abdomen when pain is present.

 

D. Legs with varicose veins.

 

E. Calves of legs with unexplained pain.

10. Keep body, hair, and clothing a maximum of 12 inches away from the suction fitting at all 

times when whirlpool is operating. Do not operate the unit without the guard over the 
suction fitting.

11. Do not use whirlpool while under the influence of alcohol or narcotics.

12. Enter and exit tub slowly.

13. Do not use electrically connected devices such as televisions, radios, stereo speakers, 

lights, cooking devices, hair dryers, telephones, or other electrical appliances within five 
feet of the whirlpool tub.

14. Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use 

attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.

15. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.

16. Keep all breakable objects out of area.

17. All electrical supply circuits providing the electrical power source to be connected to the 

whirlpool bath should be checked, installed, and inspected by a licensed electrician and   
inspected by the Building Code Authority having jurisdiction at the installation location 
upon installation and prior to use of the whirlpool bath.

18. The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground-fault 

circuit-interruptor (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be 
tested on a routine basis. If GFCI fails to operate properly there may be a ground current 
flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this unit. Disconnect the 
unit and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.

19. A green colored terminal is provided within the terminal compartment. To reduce the risk 

of shock, connect this terminal to the grounding terminal of your electric service or supply 
panel with a continuous green insulated copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit 
conductors supplying this equipment, but no smaller than No. 12 AWG (3.3mm).

20. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

1.  Check to see if on/off switch or pneumatic 

switch is in "on" mode.

2.  Check for loose connections, blown circuit 

breakers, GFI or fuses.

3.  With the power off at the circuit breaker, check 

manually to see that the motor shaft has free 
movement and lacks obstruction.

1.  Turn GFI breaker off. Check for loose 

wiring/connections.

2.  Check for low voltage at the motor (frequently 

caused by undersized wire). 

NOTE: Pumps equipped with automatic reset 

overload protectors and solid state electronics 
and switches aredesigned to eliminate failures 
caused by mechanical switches and governors.

1.  Turn GFI breaker off. Check for binding of the 

motor shaft or obstruction in pump. Manually 
rotate motor shaft to see that shaft turns freely.

2.  Check for low voltage and undersized gauge   

of wire.

1.  Open air control valve to release any possible 

air lock.

2.  Make sure all suction and discharge lines and 

return port are clear and unobstructed.

3.  Check to see that water is at high enough level 

for pump to prime.

4.  Check for air leak in the suction line - slightly 

loosen pump union connector and then 
re-tighten (by hand).

5.  Check for obstructions in the piping system.

1.  Turn GFI breaker off. Check for any 

obstructions in pump that impede impeller.

2.  Check for low voltage - undersized gauge        

of wire.

3.  Check suction line for obstructions and/or       

air leaks.

4.  Check for obstruction in discharge line.

1.  Check for air leak in suction line which can 

cause “rumbling” sound.

2.  Check for “cavitation”  caused by an obstructed 

or under sized suction line.

1. Turn GFI breaker off.                                   

Check union connectors:                                   
a)  Be sure they are tight - hand tighten only.    
b)  Inspect O-ring to be sure it is properly       
     seated and not damaged.

2. Turn GFI breaker off.                                   

Water between pump housing and motor:        
a)  Check the rotary seal to be sure it is clean   
     and without contamination on surface.              
b)  Check seal to see if it is worn or damaged    
     - replace seal if necessary.
