Safe wiring for hot tubs, spas and pools
Water and electricity leave no room for shortcuts. We install the dedicated circuits, GFCI protection, disconnects and bonding that hot tubs, swim spas and pools need under the Ontario Electrical Safety Code.
What we do:
- Dedicated 240V circuit for your hot tub or swim spa
- GFCI protection and a code-compliant disconnect
- Bonding of equipment and nearby metal
- Pool pump, heater and equipment wiring
- Panel capacity check, with an upgrade if needed
- ESA permit and inspection
When this makes sense
- You are buying or installing a hot tub or swim spa
- An existing tub keeps tripping its breaker
- You are adding a pool heater, pump or salt system
- You are moving a tub or changing your deck layout
How it works
- Tell us about the job. Use the quote form or call. Photos of the area or your panel help.
- We review and quote. We look at what you sent and, when needed, visit to see the site.
- Permit and scheduling. We arrange the ESA electrical permit and book a date that works for you.
- Install and inspection. We do the work to the Ontario Electrical Safety Code and the ESA inspection follows.
Common questions
- Does a hot tub need its own circuit?
Yes. Hot tubs and pools need dedicated, protected circuits with GFCI protection and proper bonding under the Ontario Electrical Safety Code.
- What do you need from me before quoting?
The make and model of the tub or equipment, and a photo of your panel. The spec sheet tells us what size circuit it needs.
- Will my panel handle a hot tub?
Many tubs need a large 240V circuit, so we check your panel for spare capacity first. If it is short, we will say so in the quote.
