I didn't get a warm and fuzzy feeling from any of the dealers around me in Southwest Virginia. Prices were crazy high and availability sucked. I decided to buy a hot tub online. Very happy so far.

Easy to search online for board repair, here is one. http://www.spa-tek.com/home.html

All wired up and hot tub is running.

I hope you don't end up with a large boat anchor. Good Luck

So when it rains the water that hits the pool deck is going to run down under the hot tub . Is that how you want it? Usually you make the pad so the water runs off your pad under your hot tub, so not to deteriorate the under side of the tub.

update: Okay, fired up the hot tub. Did find 2 small leaks not under pressure on the back off the lcd lights cascading water fall.(just constant dripping) surprising how much water can collect with it just dripping. Used silicone, put it on yesterday, waiting until this afternoon to put back the 3 inches of water I had to take out of tub to make the repair. Had to take off the one side panel to get at the lights to make the repair. Lets hope I got the silicone in the right spots to stop the leaks, wasn't exactly that easy to reach in and get to the lights.

Try renting a trailer at your local Tractor Supply. Each store usually has one you can rent by the hour or for the day. They are pretty low to the ground so you won't have to lift it that high.

Will do, got another question for you. I'm thinking of placing a regular 15 amp breaker in that spa box on side of the house with the 60amp gfci............ I want to run a 3 wire to a GFCI receptacle that I will mount onto the brick pillar that is about 5ft from tub, this receptacle will be facing toward the house, not the hot tub. Will be wired like this, is that okay? and will just the 60amp breaker in my house electric panel be okay or must I get a higher breaker in there to run the 15amp breaker additional to the 60amp? What size underground wire do I need to buy to run off the 15 amp breaker to the 120 GFCI Receptacle? Branch Circuit/GFCI Outlet

Getting close now, just waiting for 60amp GFCI breaker to arrive via UPS tonight. I'm thinking of filling tub with water now. Check out my wiring, let me know if you see any issues. Yeah, Yeah I know the pvc pipe is exactly level, I'm a rookie though lol...did my best. No idea why the first picture is turned. It's not like that on the wall. lol I drilled the hole in the middle of the brick I thought but I think the drill wandered on me a little bit to as why it's not level with hole coming out of box. Had box installed first before drilling hole in wall....and there was no way I was taking it off the wall to redrill 3 more holes for the screws.

Don't see that helping much at all, it's a dryer vent and those louvers will only open when there is a force of air opening those louvers, with no forceful air from your hot tub, The louvers will never open.

Well I don't have 6/3 wire, but it looks like I'm going to have extra 6/2 wire, can I take out a single straight white wire out of that wire and use just for my neutral from house panel to gfci box? I'm only using 3/4" pvc pipe for going through 12" wall(cinderblock and brick) then about 3 ft over to GFCI box. I believe I can fit the 6/2 wire and a single white strand through the pipe and get it where I have to. So in total the run is about 6ft in total counting the wire in the house panel to get to the neutral bar in the GFCI Box? Would that be acceptable? code wise?

Thank you

Is the Neutral Wire in the Diagram above really needed for 3 wire system from Home Service Panel to GFCI Load Center Neutral Bar or is that just a wrong drawing for a 3 wire system? It's just drawn from neutral bar to neutral bar, seems like it is useless?
