Bullfrog Spas Owner’s Manual
in this spa are sized to match the specific water
flow created by the pump. Should the need arise
to replace the suction fittings or the pump, be
sure that the flow rates are compatible.
Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are
broken or missing. Never replace a suction
fitting with one rated less than the flow rate
marked on the original suction fitting.
8. DANGER - Risk of Electric Shock. Install at
least 5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal surfaces. As
an alternative, a spa may be installed within 5
feet of metal surfaces if each metal surface is
permanently connected by a minimum No. 8
AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper conductor to the
wire connector on the terminal box that is
provided for this purpose.
9. DANGER - Risk of Electric Shock. Do not
permit any electric appliance, such as a light,
telephone, radio, or television, within 5 feet (1.5
m) of a spa. (These units DO NOT have an
integral ground fault circuit interrupter. The
installation of a integral ground fault circuit
interrupter MUST be done by a qualified
Electrician and must meet all local and national
codes.)
10. WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury:
a) The water in a spa should never exceed 40°
C (104°F). Water temperatures between 38°C
(100°F) and 40°C are considered safe for a
healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are
recommended for young children and when
spa use exceeds 10 minutes. (Before entering
the spa or hot tub measure the temperature
with an accurate thermometer.)
b) Since excessive water temperatures have a
high potential for causing fetal damage
during the early months of pregnancy,
pregnant or possibly pregnant women should
limit spa water temperatures to 38°C (100°F).
c) Before entering a spa, the user should
measure the water temperature with an
accurate thermometer since the tolerance of
water temperature-regulating devices varies.
d) The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication
before or during spa use may lead to
unconsciousness with the possibility of
drowning.
e) Persons suffering from obesity or with a
medical history of heart disease, low or high
blood pressure, circulatory system problems,
or diabetes should consult a physician before
using a spa.
