Delivering a swim spa
Xavier LabelleShare
A Canadian Spa Company Swim Spa is a very large spa that has a few requirements that need to be met before the purchase. Unlike our Canadian Spa Company Hot Tubs which can weigh between 249kg to 463kg without water, a swim spa can weigh more than 1134kg (dry weight) ! This means that once it has been delivered, a crane company will be required to properly move the spa to its location. It is the responsibility of the customer
or his agents (be it the crane company or lift operator) to assess the lift and
control all aspects of moving the spa. The Canadian Spa Company will not take
responsibility for any part of the moving of the spa, and cannot advise on the
methods used to move the spa.
When determining a suitable location for the spa, proper support and access must be taken into consideration. The entire base must be a flat level surface that comes in
contact with every part of the spa and must support a filled weight of 7712kg.
Access to each of the panels should be provided to ensure that your spa is
covered under warranty in case of a fault.
Installing the swim spa will require a 48 Amp RCD breaker (for our St Lawrence 16′ swim spa) and a qualified electrician to properly install. Ensure that the electrician follows all local building/electrical codes and that they provide you with a certificate of verification. Failure to properly install the required power will void the Manufacturer’s Warranty!
