Hot Tub Wiring FAQs
Most residential hot tubs in Manteca require a dedicated 240V circuit with GFCI protection. This setup ensures the unit runs safely and complies with California code. The circuit must be wired with the correct amperage—usually 40 to 60 amps—and include a properly located disconnect switch.
Goose Electric will assess your panel’s load capacity and install everything from conduit to breaker to meet both manufacturer specs and local building regulations.

In many cases, yes. If your garage or subpanel has available capacity and is located close to the spa, this can be a cost-effective solution. We’ll evaluate the panel’s load, breaker availability, and wire routing. If the subpanel is not sufficient, we’ll advise whether a new subpanel or full panel upgrade is the better long-term solution for safe spa operation and future power needs.
