WIRING CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, connect
only to a properly grounded, groundingĆtype
receptacle, protected by a GroundĆFault
CircuitĆInterrupter (GFCI). Do not remove
the plug's grounding pin. Do not use a
grounding adapter.
The Kohler Custom BodySpa is equipped with a
cord and plug. All wiring of the pump has been
completed at the factory. A licensed electrician
will need to install a GFCIĆprotected, 120 V, 20 A,
grounded outlet. The electrician must install the
outlet behind the BodySpa, and within 24Ćinches
of the pump. No other load should be on this
circuit.
SUCTION ASSEMBLY
The purpose of the suction bracket is to position the
suction housing at the correct installation height,
and to provide the installer with a means of
securing the suction housing in place during final
assembly. Do not remove the suction fitting from the
bracket assembly.
You can locate the suction along any wall of the
Custom BodySpa room within 48Ćinches of the
pump box, as long as the overall wall thickness will
not exceed 1Ć3/4Ćinches. Plan to provide access to
the suction assembly in case servicing is needed.
The suction location must allow the installer to
route straight lengths of 1Ć1/2Ćinch (I.D.) rigid PVC
tubing, with no vertical elbows inline to trap water,
from the suction housing to the pump inlet. You can
use a 90Ćdegree elbow at a wall corner if the suction
is located on a different wall than the pump box.
NOTE: Refer to the minimum waterline height
information on the side of the pump box to
determine the maximum pump box height needed
for the pump to prime effectively.
Plan to apply a minimum 1/4Ćinch per foot pitch
toward the suction housing to provide adequate
water drainage through the suction line.
