hot tubs lowes image
emmamommie
I had the cover off for a few days and it rained. We had three squirrels die in the rain water. Needless to say the water is awful smelling and I am not sure I will ever be able to get in it again unless I am sure I killed all maggots and germs.. Now I just need help finding out how to sanitize the tub.

Hello,
Nice people are answering this question.
Hondu...Please email me your email and info. I would love to have an attorney chat with you on your answer concerning just how much you can lose from it being a "top contributor"and giving very bad information that could potentially lead to a death.
Sorry, but I get upset when people answer something they should not when they do not know what they are talking about possibly endangering someones life.
1st. Fill your hot tub with water.
2nd. I am going to assume your hot tub is 500 gal. capacity, If it's less which I am sure it is, great!
3rd. Lower your pH to 7.2-7.3.
4th. Add 2.5#'s of Sodium Dicholor chlorine found at Home Depot, Lowe's or your local (expensive) pool store.
5th. Let it circulate for 2 hours, making sure you hit the jet button every twenty minutes so it circulates.
6th. Drain the water.
7th. Add 1/2 gal. of distilled vinegar and circulate for 2o minutes. Drain promptly.
8th. Fill and drain once more with fresh water.
9. Rebalance water and add sanitizer.
10. Enjoy.
11. Sue everyone that was trying to get you sick that already answered.

What kind of electrical panel do I need?
Erika
We bought a house. The previous owners had a hot tub, and in the agreement, they took the hot tub and they also took the electrical panel. Now we have a hot tub on order, and I need to figure out what "electrical control panel" they took. It's a 220V hot tub. and I think we need a seperate breaker for the hot tub. What does this all entail?
Answer
Well, first let me recommend you hire it done. If its done wrong you could either hurt yourself or someone else. Who ever you hire should be certified, bonded, and be able to provide you with materials needed.
As for what would be needed....
1) determine the amperage requirements of your tub. likely its about 40 or 50amps
2) get a power panel designed for hot tubs. These will be 240 volt GFIC protected
panels. GFIC protected is a *MUST* If the tubs heater shorts to the water, you
want this to trip!!
3) set the hot tub disconnect panel no closer than 6 to 10 feet from the spa.
4) install a UF 6/3 W G wire from a 240 volt 50 amp circuit breaker (non- GFIC)
from your main home power panel to your hot tub panel
5) install UF 6/3 W G wire from the panel to the tub
I have added a couple links for boxes you can get at lowes and home depot for your reference.
