Hello,
I recently got a hot tub from a friend of mine. It is a Leisure Bay Proshield (model #G1010CLSSO-H).
Here's my question....
Outside on my patio there is one standard GFCI 2-outlet, which I am assuming is 110 like the rest of the outlets in the house.
The panel on my hot tub says "Volts: 110/220. Amps Max: 16/24/40". Does this mean I can plug it into that outlet? Or do I need to have an electrician run a new line with a 220?
Another thing, the tub's actual power cord looks like a standard power cord except for one thing, one of the flat prongs is sideways. So obviously it will not fit into the outlet already there.
So if I can use 110 for the hot tub, do I still need to run a new line back there to plug it in? Or do I just need to switch the face plates?
If I have confused everyone, I apologize. I am a complete noob when it comes to this stuff.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks!
Now I have another quick question. On another website I read this....
So do I need a dedicated line? Or is the GFCI line on the back of my house already dedicated?
