  1. Thank you all - I'll leave it as it is for now because the wires are all #6 and that is the correct wire for 50A. If I would have used #8, I think that I should be worried, but I didn't - I simply overbuild the circuit (maybe in anticipation of bigger things in the future). On another note - the tub is here, connected, and was heating up over night. It is now ready to go :-)
  2. I am going to install my new tub (J-325) tomorrow and I ran a 50A circuit (4-wire) to the GFCI breaker box (with a 60A breaker). Now, I realized that I overbuild the circuit (#6 wires and 50A breaker). Do I need to replace the 50A breaker with a 40A or can I leave it as is?
  3. Wouldn't the warranty take care of that? The guy here said, "just give us a call and we come out and fix it". Thank you for your assessment. I am glad that a J-325 owner posted. Are you running it on 110V, 240 30A, or 240 40A? Any thoughts about my plan of putting it on plastic spa pads?
  4. Hi - I just found this forum; hopefully not too late. Last week, I ordered our first hot tub, a Jacuzzi J-325. It was a 4th July sale (ended last week) and I paid 6.2K for the tub incl. cover, stairs, ozon system, and startup pack of chemicals (chlorine). I liked the small dimensions of the tub (I did not want it to dominate the backyard). It will be delivered in 4 weeks, and now I am preparing the space where it is supposed to go. For a pad, I think that I will order EZ Pads, which should provide a nice support. I will be running a 240V, 40A line to the piece, so that I can run it at full power (the 110V option has issues, I think). Besides that, I am pretty happy with my buy, but I would like to hear opinions of others, what they think of the J-325, and of the Jacuzzi brand? I honestly did not shop around a lot - I went with a local dealer who has been around for several decades. A year ago, we checked out I think Coleman tubs and they told us that they were the best (somehow I did not believe that). The Jacuzzi seems to be higher quality, but that said, I am a complete newbie... Thanks, - S
