Bullfrog spa install question how to seal openings
« on: October 11, 2016, 07:50:45 pm »
Is there a special way or preferred way to seal the hole drilled at the base of the spa wher the conduit goes in and do you need to seal the 3 openings at the entrance to to equipment compartment? Spa being delivered tomorrow A7.

There was a small black "cap" included in my install packet that looks like it is meant to go into whichever hole you drill out for the conduit entrance that would provide a tight fit for standard 3/4" liquidtight flex....however I didn't notice it until after my electrician had already run the conduit in so I haven't used it.  I suppose i could snip one end to fit it over the conduit.  Or you could just use a bit of expanding foam or silicone.  I wouldn't bother sealing the other 2 unused entrances inside the equipment compartment as there's really no access to them from outside assuming your tub is on a continuous flat surface.

Ok. I'll look for it or just use the sealant as planned. Thanks.
