IMPORTANT: Watkins Manufacturing Corporation reserves the right to change specifications, or design, without notification and without incurring any obligation. In most cities and counties, permits will be required for the installation of electrical circuits or the construction of exterior surfaces (decks and gazebos).

Your HOT SPRING spa is equipped with a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91 Standard for Safety Covers and as a result, is usually exempt from most barrier requirements.

Your HOT SPRING dealer can provide information on which permits may be required.
