Hot Tub Electrical Installation in Hobbs, NM

Bought a hot tub for your Hobbs backyard? Most need a dedicated 240 volt circuit before the first soak. We handle the wiring from the panel to the tub.

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.

  • Dedicated 240V spa circuits
  • GFCI spa disconnect panels
  • 120V plug-in spa outlets
  • Underground conduit and trenching
  • Bonding and grounding
  • Panel capacity check
  • Swim spa and sauna circuits
  • Permit and inspection

Before your hot tub arrives

  • Confirm the voltage and amperage on the spec sheet
  • Pick a location with a clear path to the panel
  • Keep the tub away from overhead power lines
  • Check that your panel has two open spaces
  • Schedule the electrician before delivery day
