The location of the electrical service cable is a decision each spa owner needs to decide. Running the electrical
cable lay on top of the slab is visually unappealling and can present a trip hazard.
Most spa owners prefer to bury electrical conduit before the slab is laid and run the cable up through the slab.
The location of the conduit in the concrete slab is called the stub-up.
You will need to have a contractor lay down a concrete slab before the spa is delivered (as described on page
2). The stub-up needs to be located directly next to the cabinet as shown in the gures below.
The spa installer or electrician will need to drill a hole in the spa cabinet approximately 5” to 10” up from the
concrete slab. This will be where the conduit will enter the spa equipment area.
Use rigid pipe and a metal elbow outside the spa. You can use ex pipe inside the equipment area to run the
electrical wire from the elbow to the control box.
The stub-up for should be approximately 10” back from the front of the spa and no higher than 10” above the
concrete slab. It can be placed on either the left or right side of the spa.
