Astralpool Caratula Spa Obra R1.0 Manuel D'installation page 23

Installation manual
For the selector valve connections always use plastic devices, seal gasket and teflon tape. No
iron devices must be used since they could seriously damage the plastic components.
The Spa must be carefully handled and given its large dimensions controlled by
several people. Never hold the Spa by the pipes.
The Spa is completed with a metallic structure to make the installation easier.
This structure usually has several supports. It is
as bricks or similar in the areas that will support the bather's weight trying not to damage the
Spa pipes.
Additional supporting points to
guarantee and strengthen the Spa
Metalic structure
It has to take into account that to avoid contractions and future damages on the shell, it is
forbidden to fix the spa structure on the floor. Just, place it by its own weight and don't hold
the Spa through its own higher perimeter.
Once settled the Spa, finish the work bearing in mind that the edging of the surface must not
be in direct contact with the work (a minimum of 2 cm must be left around the edge).
Silicon
