The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that elevated water temperature can be hazardous.
See below for water temperature guidelines before setting temperature.
WARNING
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the heater. Do not
use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater
and to replace any part of control system and gas control which has been under water.
1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 40° C. A temperature of 37° C. is considered safe for a healthy adult. Special
caution is suggested for young children. Prolonged immersion in hot water can induce hyperthermia.
2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or hot tub use can cause drowsiness which could lead to unconsciousness and
subsequently result in drowning.
3. Pregnant women beware! Soaking in water above 37° C. can cause fetal damage during the rst three months of pregnancy (resulting
in the birth of a brain-damaged or deformed child). Pregnant women should stick to the 37° C. maximum rule.
4. Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should check the water temperature with an accurate thermometer. Spa or hot tub
thermostats may err in regulating water temperatures by as much as 3° C.
5. Persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or blood pressure problems should obtain their
physician’s advice before using spas or hot tubs.
6. Persons taking medication which induce drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants should not use spas
or
hot tubs.

6. Examine vents regularly for improper connections, visible cracks, rust or stains.
7. Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms. The alarms should be certied to the requirements of the most recent UL, IAS,
CSA and IAPMO standard for carbon monoxide alarms. Test carbon monoxide alarms regularly and replace dead batteries.
