Non-self-contained spas may inherently leak some water in which case they shall comply with EN 16582-1:2015, 4.3.
Wooden Scandinavian hot tubs may exceed the limits in EN 16582-1:2015, 4.3. The manufacturer/retailer shall provide suitable information about water leakage in the point of purchase information (see Clause 5) and user's manual (see Clause 6). Spas shall be constructed/manufactured/designed to ensure water losses are minimized and do not create a hazard (e.g. electrical and slip hazard). Water loss caused by evaporation and bathers is not included. SIST EN 17125:2019

The structural design and materials shall be in accordance with accepted structural engineering practices. Selection of materials for the construction of the spa shall be conducted under consideration of external influences, including, but not limited to, temperature, UV, chemicals, when appropriate, that may influence the structural integrity of the material. Any combination of different materials in direct contact with each other shall be compatible and not negatively affect each other's properties or structural integrity. The parameters according to 4.12 (water treatment and chemicals standards) shall be met. In addition, there shall be no influence on the water quality according to 4.12, if the material comes into contact with the spa water. Examples of materials typically used for spa construction and lining are given, but not limited to, those shown in Table 1.

· 50 µm or prescriptions given in EN ISO 1461 (which correspond more or less to 375 g/m2); — stainless steels alloys with resistance equivalent to at least 316 L. In accordance with EN ISO 9227, subject to the applicable structure samples to be tested with salt spray for (see EN ISO 9227:2017, Annex A): — 192 h for aboveground and recessed spas for the parts not in contact with the ground; — 192 h for inground and/or recessed spas for the parts in contact with the ground and whose parts to be tested are
· 3 mm; — 400 h for inground and/or recessed spas for the parts in contact with the ground and whose parts to be tested are < 3 mm. On completion of these corrosion tests, all of the products shall meet the visual requirements described below: — red oxidation: assess the results obtained on steel parts, coated or not, referring to the recommendations of EN ISO 4628-3. The number of red rust pits on the surface shall conform to grade RI 3 or lower; — white oxidation is accepted on zinc-galvanised, electrogalvanised or bichromated parts; — green oxidation is accepted on material including copper; — brown oxidation is accepted on stainless steel; — the degree of blistering of organic coatings shall not exceed density 2, and the size of any blister shall not exceed size 3 as defined in EN ISO 4628-2.

Figure 3 — Template for small elements All edges, protruding parts and corners accessible shall be designed not to cause any injury. When necessary they shall be treated appropriately to remove this risk (see Figure 4). For example, edges can be bevelled or rounded, and surfaces shall be smooth and free from burrs. Examples are provided in Figure 4. If they are due to a wall thickness less than 4 mm, one of the following requirements applies: — they shall be folded, rolled or wound in spirals according to Figure 4 d); — they shall be protected by a plastic coating or by any other suitable means as shown in Figure 4 e).

Figure 4 — Examples of configuration of edges Shells made from thermoplastic composites include, but are not limited to, acrylic, ABS, HDPE and Vinyl, shall be watertight, free from any defects that may cause any injury, and suitably assembled with any backing reinforcement material. Where construction work is required for a spa installation, manufacturers shall specify the construction method and any relevant materials used together with details of the physical support required All timber (where applicable) within the spa shall be appropriate for its intended use.
Spas that are field engineered (rather than factory-built) may typically use materials such as concrete and tiles.
The assembled spa shall be designed to withstand the combined weight of the maximum volume of water recommended by the manufacturer and of the maximum number of bathers the spa can accommodate (see Clause 6). SIST EN 17125:2019
