Before You Begin

There are many factors to consider when choosing a location to set up the RENEW 815. These factors vary depending on whether you use the RENEW 815 inside or outside. We have listed several factors you may wish to consider as you decide where you want to use the RENEW 815.

If you set up the RENEW 815 inside:

1. The RENEW 815 will increase the level of humidity in your home. The location you choose should be well ventilated. You may need to install a ventilation fan or use a dehumidifier.

2. The location must be close to an electrical outlet.

An extension cord cannot be used with the RENEW 815.

3. The RENEW 815 should be close to a source of water.

4. Do not use the RENEW 815 on carpet or other material that may be damaged by moisture. We recommend that you place the RENEW 815 on a water- and stain-resistant, non-slip surface with a floor drain for any water that may splash from the RENEW 815.

5. Be sure that the location you choose is stable. It must be able to support the weight of the RENEW 815 when it is filled with water, plus the weight of the occupants. The RENEW 815 weighs approximately 2,350 pounds when filled with water.

6. Do not use the RENEW 815 above a finished living area, due to the risk of water damage.

7. Be sure that there is room around the RENEW 815 to permit servicing of the unit. The diameter of the tub is 63Ó. You should allow for this size, plus the size of the spa jet unit plus room to remove the cover, when choosing the location.

8. Be sure to note any other considerations, such as aesthetics or privacy concerns, that may affect the safety or enjoyment of using the RENEW 815.

If you set up the RENEW 815 outside:

1. You should check your local building codes concerning the use of outdoor spas.

3. The RENEW 815 should be close to a source of water.

4. We recommend that you place the RENEW 815 on a water and stain-resistant, non-slip surface.

6. Think about environmental factors, such as rain, wind, shade, sunlight, and so forth.

7. You should be able to monitor the use of the RENEW 815 from your home, to prevent unauthorized use by children.

8. Be sure that there is room around the RENEW 815 to permit servicing of the unit. The diameter of the tub is 63Ó. You should allow for this size, plus the size of the spa jet unit plus room to remove the cover, when choosing the location.
