Hot Tub Installation
How can I save energy while using a hot tub?
It’s important to choose an energy-efficient model and to properly maintain the hot tub’s components. This includes regularly cleaning and replacing the hot tub’s filters, as well as ensuring that the heater, pump, and jets are in good working order. Additionally, many hot tubs come with energy-saving features, such as programmable timers and energy-efficient insulation, that can help reduce energy consumption and save on operating costs over time.
What are hot tub installation requirements?
Getting a hot tub and sauna electrical installed in your backyard is a much simpler process. You need to have access to your backyard, a solid-level place to start the spa, electricity, and a garden hose in proximity.
Are you wondering which type of hot tub electrical wire you should use? Choosing the correct hot tub wire size is very important. We recommend looking at 6 AWG thhn/thwn copper building wire for a hot tub that requires 50 amp service, as this is the most popular! Some spas run on 8 gauge wiring for a 50amp circuit; we recommend 6 hot tub wire gauge on all 50/60 amp installations. Going for a thicker wire size for a hot tub ensures that your cords will remain cooler when handling 50 amps and experience less risk of voltage drops too.

How can I fill up and drain my hot tub?
A hot tub, or a portable spa, is an entirely self-contained vessel designed to provide you with amazing hydrotherapy benefits. Once you fill it in, the water circulates through the plumbing and filtration system within the spa’s cabinet. Depending on how often you use your spa and the water care system you choose, you will need to drain the spa and refill it just a few times each year. Filling and draining instructions vary by model. Please refer to your hot tub manufacturer’s manual for specific guidance, as this falls outside the scope of our electrical services.
