Abstract
A sealing method and corresponding compensation ring, or alternately called a load washer, for use in portable spas or bath tubs that can be installed as part of an assembly when attaching fittings that go through a hole in a spa wall. The method and ring are used to compensate for the uneven surface of spa walls and the necessity that the fitting assembly provides that the fitting chosen sits parallel with the inside of the spa wall regardless of the shape of the surface of the wall, whether it is uniform or not. The fitting fits between a nut and the back/plumbing side of the spa wall with the fitting of choice and securing gasket being inserted into the assembly on the front/aesthetic/water side of the spa wall.
