If the device is installed outdoors, we strongly recommend placing it in a ventilated enclosure to protect it from environmental exposure.

For the most reliable operation we recommend installing SpaPilot:
-
inside the spa cabinet, or

inside a dry and ventilated protective box near the spa equipment.
This protects the device from weather exposure and helps ensure stable operation over time.
