Hot Tubs

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. In Aurora, Denver, and surrounding areas, a permit is required to ensure your hot tub’s electrical setup meets safety and building codes. Done! handles the permitting process for you—from application to final inspection—so everything is covered and compliant.

Most hot tubs require a dedicated 240V circuit and cannot be safely plugged into a standard household outlet. Even smaller plug-and-play models should be evaluated to ensure proper GFCI protection and outdoor-rated wiring. Done! can assess your spa’s requirements and install the right connection.

Our service typically includes a panel load check, a new breaker, GFCI disconnect box, wiring in outdoor-rated conduit, and final hookup to the spa’s control system. We ensure every component is code-compliant and built to handle Colorado’s changing weather.

Your hot tub can usually be placed up to 50–100 feet from the home, depending on electrical load and site conditions. Longer distances require proper trenching, conduit sizing, and load planning. Done! will evaluate the safest and most efficient way to run power to your spa.

If your existing electrical panel can’t handle the added load, or if you’re placing the hot tub far from the main panel, a subpanel may be needed. We’ll review your system and determine whether a subpanel is the safest and most cost-effective option.

Hot Tub Electrical Installation You Can Trust

Adding a hot tub to your home is one of the best ways to create a private, relaxing space—but installing one is more than just placing it on a patio and filling it with water. To run safely and reliably, every hot tub needs a dedicated electrical circuit, GFCI protection, and proper wiring that meets current electrical code. That’s where Done Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric comes in.

We specialize in hot tub electrical installation for homeowners in Aurora, Denver, and surrounding communities. From load calculation and permitting to final spa hookup, our licensed electricians ensure every connection is secure, weatherproof, and built for years of safe enjoyment.

Why Hot Tubs Require Professional Wiring

High power, high moisture, high risk

Hot tubs draw significant electrical current—often 50 amps or more—and are typically installed in wet, outdoor environments. That combination makes them one of the most sensitive and strictly regulated electrical installations on your property. Trying to wire a spa yourself, or trusting it to a general handyman, can lead to dangerous conditions, failed inspections, and even fire or electrocution hazards.

Our team at Done! handles spa wiring the right way, including:

  • Running a dedicated 240V circuit
  • Installing a weatherproof, outdoor-rated GFCI disconnect box
  • Using conduit and proper grounding for outdoor environments
  • Ensuring the system meets NEC and local code
  • Coordinating permits and inspections

Whether your spa is a portable above-ground model or a built-in unit recessed into a deck, we’ll design an electrical solution tailored to your space, your system, and your safety.

What’s Included in Our Hot Tub Wiring Service

End-to-end service from start to soak

When you schedule hot tub electrical installation with Done!, we take care of everything from the first inspection to the final hookup. Our process includes:

  • Evaluating your main electrical panel to ensure it can handle the added load
  • Recommending a subpanel if needed for larger spas or long distances
  • Trenching and running outdoor-rated conduit to your hot tub pad
  • Installing all GFCI protection, disconnects, and breakers
  • Making final electrical connections to the hot tub control system
  • Testing for proper voltage, grounding, and GFCI trip response
  • Handling all permitting and scheduling your final inspection

You can count on Done! for clear communication, licensed work, and clean installation that keeps your yard, patio, and home looking great.

Where to Place Your Spa—and What to Consider Electrically

Smart layouts make safer, easier wiring

Your spa’s location affects not just how you enjoy it—but also how it’s powered. Whether you’re placing your hot tub near a deck, by a detached garage, or across the yard, we’ll help you plan around:

  • Distance from the panel – Long runs require larger gauge wire and more conduit
  • Trenching – We dig safe, code-compliant trenches to protect wiring
  • Required clearance – NEC requires spa disconnects to be within sight and 5–15 feet from the tub
  • Moisture exposure – We use outdoor-rated materials to withstand Colorado weather

Our goal is to make powering your hot tub seamless. You’ll get fast, safe installation—without shortcuts or future regrets.

Common Upgrades with Hot Tub Installs

Plan ahead for comfort and convenience

Many homeowners choose to add other upgrades alongside their hot tub wiring. Done! can help you plan additional features like:

  • Dedicated lighting circuits for spa steps or pathways
  • Smart switches or timers for lighting and pumps
  • GFCI outlets nearby for accessories (like towel warmers or speakers)
  • Panel upgrades if your system is nearing capacity

If you’re building a backyard oasis, we’re the one team that can wire it all—safely and efficiently.
