Benefits of hot tubs and saunas
Why are hot tubs and saunas so popular? This is a question that many people ask. Is it a whole bunch of hype or are there really benefits to be had? Hot tubs and saunas do a great deal to improve health and quality of life.
Reduce stress – hot tubs and saunas give you a reason to hit the pause button and relax. They not only provide physical relief but also create a soothing and calming environment to just let your worries wash away.
Ease muscle pain – tight and knotted muscles are painful and can make moving difficult. Applying heat will expand the tight muscles and allow them to start to heal themselves by loosening them and increasing blood flow. The jets of a hot tub can act as a massage on sore areas leading to even further pain relief and removal of tension.
Improve circulation – The heat opens up the blood vessels which leads to increased circulation. This allows both toxins to be removed more efficiently and healing platelets and blood cells to move more freely. You will also sweat a significant amount which is another way that the body cleans itself.

Hot Tubs
When you are ready to install, replace, or upgrade your hot tub, Roberts Electrical is your choice to perform the electrical installation. Robert Electrical’s licensed electricians have the experience and training to professionally complete the electrical work required for you to enjoy your new investment. Here are some basics to consider if you are thinking about purchasing and installing a new hot tub.
The most important part of any hot tub installation is planning. There are a tremendous variety of locations and configurations that you may use to install a hot tub in or around your home. The closer your hot tub is to the house (or bedroom) the more often you will use it.
Installations on existing decks are not uncommon but be aware that most decks are not designed to support the weight of a filled hot tub and the advice of an engineer is highly recommended. Remember, the average filled hot tub can weigh in excess of 5000 pounds.
The hot tub itself must sit on a single solid surface – a concrete pad is best for this use. A typical pad is 3 ½ inches thick with reinforcement wire. Consultation with a concrete contractor is advisable when deciding where to locate your hot tub. If you are thinking of sinking your hot tub partially into the ground, you will need to have a retaining wall built around it with at least 12 inches of clearance all the way around the tub. You may want to consider this approach if the overall height of the hot tub is not to your liking.
There are additional considerations if you are thinking about an indoor installation. We recommend you consult with the supplier or distributor of your hot tub if you want to install your hot tub inside.
The typical electrical wiring for a package hot tub system is one 240 volt (240v), 40 or 50 amp electrical circuit. The National Fire Protection Association publication 72 (the NEC – National Electrical Code) requires that a disconnect switch be within visible distance from the pump (local codes may differ), but at least 5 feet away from the edge of the tub (for safety reasons). All electrical circuits need to be protected by a GFCI electrical circuit breaker. Additionally, you need to have an electrical receptacle between 6 and 20 feet from the hot tub. This electrical outlet can be on a general purpose electrical circuit and does not require GFCI protection.
As an electrical contractor, Roberts Electrical of Sudbury and surrounding areas guarantees that all electrical services we provide are completed with safety and professionalism first and foremost. When you are ready to install your new hot tub, the licensed electricians from Roberts Electrical will be at your service.
