Summarize the following:
An unfilled hot tub can weigh upwards of 800 pounds (363 kg), so it's important to know how you will get it from the delivery van to your backyard. Make sure that the width of the tub will pass through any gates, foliage, or structures with enough leeway. Some delivery drivers will help you with this step. If you find that the tub is bigger than certain obstacles in your path will allow, you may need to improvise. Cutting a branch or removing a part of a fence, although it appears drastic, is sometimes the only thing that you can do. The voltage of a hot tub is higher (usually around 240 volts) than regular home outlets, so you will need to install a breaker to your electrical control box. If you are not familiar with electrical systems, it is best to hire an electrician to assist you in this aspect of installation. See the section below for more information on electrical wiring and help. You're almost ready to start enjoying your brand new tub, without having broken the bank by paying someone else to install it. To complete the installation, you'll want to: Turn off the electricity. Clean the interior of the hot tub and make sure all jets and knobs are in place. Open the air valves. Fill the hot tub with water from a garden hose or using buckets of water from inside. No special water is necessarily required. Turn the electricity back on and begin heating the tub. Mix in the proper chemicals to ensure sanitation.
Plan your delivery route of the tub from the curb to the foundation. Assemble the hot tub and hook up the electricity. Prepare the hot tub for use.
