• PrOPer VeNTiLATiON: Proper ventilation should be discussed
with 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 this can damage certain
surfaces and or surroundings.
• SUFFICIENT ACCESS: In the unlikely event that you should ever
need to access or gain entry to any portion of the spa for servicing,
it is highly recommended that you plan your indoor installation to
provide full access to the entire spa.
• WARRANTY: Damage caused by not following these guidelines
or any improper installation not in accordance with local codes or
authorities is not covered under the spas warranty. Please consult
your local state or city building ordinances.
5.0 General electrical Safety instructions
Your new Sundance ® hot tub is equipped with the “state-of-
the-art” Sentry ™
equipment system. It contains the most
advanced safety and self-protective equipment in the
industry. Nonetheless, this hot tub must be installed
properly to ensure dependable usage. Please contact your local
Sundance Spas dealer or local building department should you have any
questions regarding your installation.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Sundance hot tubs are
equipped with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is
provided on the surface of the control box, located inside the equipment
door (Figure C, page 14) to permit connection of a bonding wire between
this point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit
within 5 feet (1.5m) of the hot tub, or copper clad grounding rod buried
within 5 feet (1.5m) of the hot tub. Bonding wire must be at least No.
8 AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper wire. This is a most important safety
assurance feature.
Before installing your hot tub, check with your local building department
to ensure installation conforms to local building codes.
