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.

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.
