Find out exactly what to expect.<\/p>\n<p>Although there are a number of videos online covering DIY hot tub installation, industry experts and manufacturers recommend that you don\u2019t go it alone. The primary reason is because hot tub installation can pose a potential danger when lifting heavy equipment and dealing with electrical configurations.<\/p>\n<p>Unless you have such experience or the help of a friend that happens to be an electrician, it\u2019s best to pay for installation upon purchase or hire a contractor to do the job for you.<\/p>\n<h5>What does basic hot tub installation entail?<\/h5>\n<p><strong>Standard hot tub installation requires:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Electrical circuit<\/li>\n<li>Gas line<\/li>\n<li>Hot tub pad<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In order for a hot tub to sit on a solid foundation, it must be assembled on a concrete pad with a supporting hot tub pad layered on top. This type of foundation is critical because uneven settling under a hot tub can cause leakage and damage to the spa over time.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the model, a hot tub will also require connection to a 20 amp\/240 V circuit with a green insulated ground wire and white neutral wire to meet code requirements. National electric codes dictate that hot tub wiring is encased in a metal conduit with a disconnection switch a visible distance from the hot tub pump.<\/p>\n<p>A hot tub will connect to a gas line with a 100 K BTU heater; if a larger heater is used to heat a bigger spa, a larger gas line will be required. A gas line always calls for professional sizing and installation.<\/p>\n<h5>What makes up hot tub installation cost?<\/h5>\n<p> Clearly, hot tub installation is an expert task that shouldn\u2019t be left in the hands of amateurs for safety purposes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you aren\u2019t skilled in hot tub installation,<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nit\u2019s best to pay for a professional installation package from a<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nmanufacturer or contractor that may include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cost of tub<\/strong> \u2013 A standard two-person hot tub could cost<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nas little as $4000, up to $8000 or more for a six person tub.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cost of labor\/delivery<\/strong> \u2013 Most dealers quote hot tub<br \/><\/br><br \/>\ninstallation labor and delivery prices at 5% to 10% of the total<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nhot tub cost.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cost of foundation<\/strong> \u2013 Building a level foundation on a<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nconcrete pad for a hot tub could cost from $1000-$3000.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electrical outlet installation<\/strong> \u2013 An electric outlet that<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nneeds to be hardwired at the site of a hot tub could cost from<br \/><\/br><br \/>\n$75-$800.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>And the fun doesn\u2019t stop there<\/em> \u2013 hot tub owners estimate<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nthat it can cost $20-$40 a month for basic electricity, plus up<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nto $300 a year in annual cleaning, maintenance, and chemical<br \/><\/br><br \/>\ntreatments.
