Hooking up Your Hot Tub: Why You Need an Electrician
A hot tub is a great way to relax and soak away the stresses of your day. But before you can safely enjoy your outdoor spa addition, you’ll need to hook it up. Although you might be thinking about attempting this yourself, this job is best done by a professional electrician.
Hot Tub Wiring and Installation
Many homeowners assume that wiring and installation come with their hot tub purchase. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case. Typically, your supplier will deliver your new hot tub either “curbside” or to your desired backyard location. Here’s why you need to call a professional electrician:
Safety Risks
As the saying goes, water and electricity don’t mix. Chances are, you’re not familiar with the National Electric Code (NEC) for hot tubs. A highly-trained and skilled electrician knows this code inside and out. That’s how he keeps himself out of danger when wiring your new hot tub, makes sure anyone who uses it remains safe, and minimizes the risk of any damage to your unit.
Proper Hot Tub Installation
The NEC serves as a guide when choosing and installing the right wiring, outlets, disconnects, breakers, and conduits. If you don’t properly install your hot tub, you could put its occupants in danger, and risk causing damage to the unit itself.
Peace of Mind
When your hot tub is properly installed by a trained electrician, you have peace of mind knowing that no one is in danger of getting electrocuted or shocked.
Leave it to the Professionals
Simply put, some jobs are best left to the professionals—and hot tub wiring and installation is one of them! Contact the pros at Irish Electric to get your hot tub safely installed the first time.
