Hot Tub Electrical Installation Services
Why Professional Pool & Hot Tub Wiring Is Critical
Electricity near water is extremely dangerous—improper wiring can lead to electric shock, electrocution, equipment damage, or fire. Ontario's Electrical Safety Code and local building permits require specific protections for all pools, hot tubs, and spas, whether new installations, upgrades, or troubleshooting existing setups.
Common requirements include:
- Dedicated circuits with proper amp rating (typically 50-60A for hot tubs)
- GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection on all outlets and equipment to instantly shut off power in case of ground fault
- Equipotential bonding to eliminate voltage gradients around the pool or tub
- Weatherproof conduits, disconnect switches, and outdoor-rated components
- ESA inspection and approval for permit compliance
At Beetham Electric, we handle every detail so you can relax and enjoy your backyard safely.
