Rev. B 4-8-03 5 P/N 520101PLUMBING REQUIREMENTSPlumb system in accordance with ‘RECOMMENDED HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC” on page 3, local codesand the following guidelines.Bring all lines back to the equipment pad.1. Spa should be at or above the level of the pool.If spa is attached to pool, provide a dam between the two bodies of water to allow spa overflow into pool.If spa is not attached to pool, an overflow, sufficient in size to carry full pump-flow, must be installed atwater level in the spa.2. Plumb a three-port Intake Valve on the suction-side of the filter pump, so that center port of valve isconnected to the pump inlet.Connect spa suction to one side of Intake Valve, and pool suction to the other side.3. Plumb a three-port Return Valve on the return-side of the heater, so that return water will enter valvethrough the center port.Connect spa return to one side of Return Valve, and pool return to the other side.4. A ½ in. spa make-up line (incorporating a ½ in. manual gate or ball valve and, for elevated spas, a ½ in.check valve) may be provided to bypass the pool return line. This will enable some of the chemically-balanced water from the pool to cycle through the spa. The manual valve will allow the amount of bypassto be adjusted.5. If the spa is to be constructed in concrete, special provision should be made at this time for the installationof the Spa-side Remote Control.Select a convenient location in the deck or above water level in the spa wall (where the Spa-side Remotewill not be submerged by the spa water), and install a 6 in. to 12 in. length of 1 in. PVC pipe to provide areceptacle for the Spa-side Remote. The pipe should be level and protrude beyond the finished surface ofthe spa. It will be cut back at a later date. Reduce pipe size down to ½ in. or ¾ in. conduit, and run toproposed Load Center location at equipment pad. Use sweep elbows for turns.The Spa-side Remote will not be installed until spa construction is complete.6. For systems which incorporate a skimmer, it is possible to balance the amount of suction between theskimmer and main drain for maintenance purposes.This is easily accomplished by installing a manual three-port mixing valve at the suction line.Plumb one port to the skimmer and the other to the main drain.7. If a “non-booster pump” pressure-side pool cleaner is being used, plumb a manual three-port valvebetween the filter pump and filter, with the third port plumbed to the pool cleaner line, and install amotorized two-port Pool Cleaner Valve at this line. The motorized valve will automatically openwhenever the Control System activates the pool cleaner.8. If a booster pump pool cleaner is being used, plumb the booster pump so that its suction-side is connectedto the pool return, after the heater and as close to the ground as practical.

Rev. B 4-8-03 15 P/N 520101INSTALL 4-FUNCTION SPA-SIDE REMOTE CONTROLThe iS4 may be used in conjunction with IntelliTouch Control Systems to provide remote switching of four controlcircuits from the spa location. It is typically used for activating spa circulation and three auxiliary pieces of equipment(such as lights, jet pump, air blower, etc.). The red LED status light comes on steady in Spa mode and flashes whileheating.LocationThe iS4 spa-side remote is a double-insulated, waterproof device that is UL-listed (to UL 1563). Recommendedinstallation is four inches above the water’s edge for convenient longer life. The remote control may be mounted in thetile line or in the deck within arm’s reach of a spa occupant. It can be used with a gunite spa, acrylic spa, or hot-tub.However, in order to install the spa-side remote into the wall of a gunite spa, provision must be made while the spa isbeing plumbed.NOTE: If the Load Center to which the spa-side remote is connected is not located above the spa water level,a junction box should be provided (above water level).Gunite Spa ApplicationWhen plumbing the spa, install a 3 in. to 6 in. length of 1 in. Sch. 40 PVC pipe (perpendicular to the spa wall) toprovide a receptacle for the spa-side remote. It isadvisable that this pipe be plumbed as level aspossible. However, the unique “eyeball” designbuilt into the remote will compensate for adiscrepancy of up to 15°. See Figure 11.The pipe should protrude beyond the finishedsurface of the spa, as it will be cut back aftersurface-finishing is completed. Outside the spa,the conduit size may be reduced down to ½ in.or ¾ in., and run to the Load Center. Use sweepelbows for turns.NOTE: For new gunite spa installations, theiS4 Mounting Adapter has no purpose and canbe discarded.When the spa construction is completed, cut backthe 1 in. dia.
