Service Access
For partially or fully sunken installations, allow for
access to service connections. It is the installer's re-
sponsibility to provide sufficient service access. The
recommended minimum dimensions allowable for
service to the bath are shown in the "Service Access
- Without Skirt" illustration.
Provide adequate area around unit for air circulation
for cooling the motor and to supply sufficient air to the
jets. Do not insulate this area or around motor.
