Hot tub and spa wiring
Most full-size hot tubs call for a 240 volt, 50 or 60 amp GFCI-protected circuit with a disconnect within sight of the tub and at least five feet from the water. We check panel capacity, run conduit, and bond nearby metal as required.

Before your hot tub arrives

Local knowledge for Dulce, Rio Arriba County
Dulce is in New Mexico's high country. Long heating seasons, snow, and winter storms put steady demand on electrical systems and make outages more than an inconvenience. Older adobe and territorial-style buildings in Rio Arriba County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.
Depending on your address, power in Rio Arriba County typically comes from Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, or Northern Rio Arriba Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
We provide hot tub wiring throughout Dulce and in nearby Chama, Los Ojos, Tierra Amarilla, and Navajo Dam.
