What matters for your Catalina move.
Identify the fitted cover system.
Some Catalina model documentation describes a Tuff Top cover with opening dimensions separate from the spa footprint. Tell us what is installed on your tub and photograph the hinges or supports. Do not apply one model sheet’s dimensions to another Catalina.
Measure the installation, not only the seating.
Give the outside cabinet dimensions and show the open-cover clearance where practical and safe. Nearby fences, walls or rails can affect both access and final placement. Include steps and other accessories in the inventory.
Use matching model information for preparation.
Provide the model, year and any known modifications. Catalina hot tubs and swim spas are different scopes, and older manuals may not match a newer tub. Confirm the appropriate owner information before shutdown and restart planning.
Have these details ready.
A useful quote starts with the actual tub and the actual properties. Along with your pickup and delivery locations, please share:
- Catalina model, year and hot tub versus swim-spa identification
- Photos of the actual cover, hinges, steps and supports
- Cabinet dimensions, accessory clearances and both routes
There is no single dry weight, transport orientation or lifting method for an entire brand. Use the owner information for your model and year, and have the condition and access assessed before the move.
Before moving day in Utah.
Walk both routes, measure the narrowest openings and flag stairs, slopes, loose ground and tight corners. If the spa is built into decking or an enclosure, describe that before arranging a date. Salt Lake City and Wasatch Front moves can have very different access even over a short distance.
Coordinate electrical disconnection and reconnection with a qualified specialist. Follow the matching owner guidance for shutdown, draining and restart. If cold weather is expected, discuss residual water and the time between preparation and recommissioning. A quote request is not a confirmed booking.
Catalina moving questions.
Why do you ask about the Catalina cover as well as the tub?
The installed cover system can have its own clearance and preparation needs. Some Catalina model sheets list separate open-cover dimensions, so photos and the actual configuration help define the moving inventory and placement.
Can I use the Kennedy model sheet for any Catalina move?
No. It is specific to that model and publication. Use the correct documentation for your tub and describe its installed cover and accessories rather than borrowing dimensions or weights from another model.
