Full Hot Tub Electrical Install - Start To Finish

Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.

Synopsis:
You called, we answered: A hot tub installation is one of the most requested videos from our viewers, so we were excited when church friends gave us the green light to film the process at their home. While we will be showing everything step-by-step, we need to stress that our definitive recommendation is that a professional perform this installation because hot tubs 1) have high power draw, 2) are full of WATER which pairs very harmfully with electricity, 3) require mastery of indoor and outdoor electrical and building codes, & 4) are an expensive investment that we do not want to be held responsible for! If you’ve got the tools and the willingness to attempt this behemoth, but would like some “targeted expertise” without hiring out the whole project, Joel Walsman can be contacted directly via video or voice call through this link: https://electric-pro-academy.square.site/. Otherwise, we welcome your thoughts on this latest high-power episode at EPRO!
