Delivery and Set-up
Preparing a Good Foundation
for Your Spa Wrap
Most cities and counties require permits for exterior
construction and electrical circuits. In addition, some
communities have codes requiring residential barriers
such as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property
to prevent unsupervised access to the property by
children under the age of ve. Your dealer can provide
information on which permits may be required and
how to obtain them prior to the delivery of your
equipment.
The following are some of the things that you will
need to consider when determining the placement of
your new spa wrap.
Consider How You Will Use Your Spa
Wrap
How you intend to use your spa wrap will help you
determine where you should position it. For example,
will you use your spa wrap for recreational purposes?
If your spa wrap is mainly used for family functions, be
sure to leave plenty of room around it for activity.
Consider Your Privacy
In a cold weather climate, bare trees won’t provide
much privacy. Think of your spa wraps surroundings
during all seasons to determine your best privacy
options. Consider the view of your neighbors as well,
when you plan the location of your spa wrap.
Your spa wrap needs a solid and level foundation. The
area that it sits on must be able to support the weight
of the spa wrap and the occupants who use it. If the
foundation is inadequate, it may shift or settle after
the spa wrap is in place, causing stress that could
DAMAGE YOUR SPA WRAP.
Place the spa wrap on an elevated foundation
(preferably a 3” concrete slab). Be sure that the
concrete slab is at least 12” wider than the outside
dimension on the spa wrap.
If you are installing a spa on an elevated wood •
deck or other structure, we strongly recommend
that you consult a structural engineer or contractor
to ensure the structure will support the weight of
150 Lbs./ sq. ft.
It is strongly recommended that a qualied, •
licensed contractor prepare the foundation for
your spa.

SW-400 122” 133” 60”
SW-500 146” 140” 83”
Provide A View With Your Spa Wrap
Think about the direction you will be facing when sitting
in your spa wrap. Do you have a special landscaped
area in your yard that you nd enjoyable? Perhaps
there is an area that catches a soothing breeze during
the day and lovely sunset in the evening. Consider
these things when you plan your location.
2009 Spa Wraps
LTR20091032, Rev. A
NOTE: For all spa wraps, regardless of model, it is
recommended that the foundation extend beyond
the dimension of the spa wrap. For example, if the
spa wrap you purchased is 12’x12’, you will want
your foundation to be 14’x14’. The reason for this is
because it will be easier to maintain the area around
the spa wrap (mowing the lawn, edging, etc.) without
damaging or scarring the spa wrap. Also, in doing this,
you will eliminate any potential problems, foundationwise, in the future.

Spa Wrap Assembly
Spa Wrap Assembly
The following will tell you how to assemble your spa
wrap. If you have any questions, problems with material
and/or parts, please contact your local retailer.
NOTE: It is strongly advised that you have a licensed
professional install the foundation for your new spa
wrap. It is imperative that the foundation is level, as
any damage that occurs due to an uneven foundation
is not covered by the warranty.
If you are having a new spa delivered, we recommend
that you determine, prior to its delivery, where your spa
will be placed. For example: if you are going to center
your spa on the concrete slab, take measurements
that will enable you to determine where the edges of
the spa will be located. When done, mark the corner
locations. Upon delivery of your new Cal Spa, notify
the installation crew that you have determined where
you want the spa located.
After the spa has been installed and is operating, the
assembly of the your new spa wrap may begin.
Important: This spa wrap is a free-standing unit.
As with any structure, it is critical that all the main
support surface be level. If the main support surface
is not level, then the entire spa and spa wrap will be
misaligned.
Tools and Materials
Utility knife 25’ tape measure Cordless drill
100’ extension cord Electric drill Phillips-head drill tips
1/8” pilot hole drill bit 9/16” socket Slotted-head drill tips
Sandpaper (various grades) Redwood stain Wood putty
Gray wash stain Rags 1/2” ratchet and impact drill
1/2” carbide drill bit (masonry bit)
Assembly
After your Spa is professionally installed, clear the surrounding area for the installation of your spa wrap. If your
spa is already in place and not a new unit, make sure the area surrounding your spa is suitable for a spa wrap
install. The area (slab or deck area) should be level so the spa wrap ts correctly with the spa unit.
Carefully unpack the components and make sure your new spa wrap parts are arranged properly. Place each of
the four spa wrap sections around the spa as shown in the exploded views (see Figure 1).
Use Figure 2 for assembly of the SW-400, including electrical assembly.
If your unit has a re place, see the instructions in the chapter “Planning for and Using Your Spa Wrap Fireplace
(Model SW-100)”.

Seam and Joint Finishing
After you have unpacked all of the pieces and have put them in place around your spa, you may wish to apply
grout and stucco to the seams to give your spa wrap a more “nished” appearance.
Note: When access is needed inside your spa, the seams will need to be split. When work inside the spa is
nished, the seams will need to be renished, so plan accordingly.
Prepare and ll the gap or seam line with speed set.1.
Using your ngertips, push and atten out the speed set into the seam line.2.

Installing Your Spa Wrap Fireplace
Safe and satisfactory operation of your new replace spa wrap depends upon its proper installation. Installation,
adjustments and service must be performed by L.M.S. qualied installers and service technicians to ensure
proper operation and prevent accidents.
LP Gas Requirements
Check the rating plate to make sure the gas supply you are hooking up to is the gas type the replace is

LP Gas Supply Pressure: Maximum line pressure for plumbed-in propane is 14” W.C (3.5 kPa). Minimum
line pressure for propane is 11” W.C.
LP Gas Pressure Regulator: The unit must be used with the gas pressure regulator. The regulator will control
and maintain a uniform gas pressure in the manifold. The burner orices have been sized for the gas pressure
delivered by the regulator.
LPG Cylinder Specication: Any LP gas supply cylinder used with this replace must be approximately 12
inches in diameter and 18 inches high. The maximum fuel capacity is 20 lbs. of propane, or 5 gallons. Full
cylinder weight should be approximately 38 lbs. (43.7 lbs. nominal water capacity.) Always use the cylinder dust
cap on the cylinder valve outlet during transport and when the cylinder is not connected to the replace.
Transporting the LP Gas Supply Cylinder: Only one cylinder should be transported at a time. Transport

Maintenance and Care
Maintenance and Care
Maintaining Your Fireplace
Inspect the appliance before initial use. Clean the
appliance at least annually and have it inspected by
a qualied eld service person.
Tampering with this appliance is DANGEROUS and
voids all warranties. Replace any faulty components
only with approved components.
For best operation, the burner ames should be
steady, not lifting or oating.
Periodically remove the logs and examine the
burner. If the burner is dirty, clean it with a soft wire
brush. Also examine the area around the burner air
shutter. Remove any dirt or debris in this area. This
will ensure long life and trouble-free operation.
Periodically check the hose connecting the LP gas
cylinder to ensure it is not damaged in any way.
Carbon (soot) may build up on the surfaces of the
logs with heavy use. This is more likely to occur
with LP gas. Clean soot off the surface of the logs
periodically to prevent excessive buildup.
Cleaning
Your spa wrap was designed with low cleaning and
maintenance in mind. We recommend that the spa
wrap be cleaned at least twice a month (or more, if
needed). When cleaning your spa wrap, do not use
cleaning solvents -- using a sponge and water will
be ne. For ground-in dirt and grime, refer to the
following section.
Maintaining your Spa and spa wrap is an easy task.
We recommend that every six months you inspect
your Spa unit. Take note of any deformities in the
material (i.e. cracking, peeling, dirt, grime, etc).
When cleaning your spa wrap, do not use cleaning
solvents – using a sponge and water will be ne.
