Wiring is complete...

Tub gets delivered tomorrow - electrician will return in the PM to hook it up.  Here is my question - can I fill the tub around noon and then have the electrician throw the breakers on to start the heating?  Will the tub default to a set temp?  It is a HS Envoy.  I will not be here with the electrician - need to attend a wake.

I hope this will be an easy process.  HS experts what do you think?

Thanks

BTW temp should be about 46 degrees tomorrow

Yes, but tell the electrician to turn the 30 amp breaker on first, wait 10 seconds, and then turn on the 20 amp breaker.  This will prevent an airlock from occuring.

The spa will automatically come on set at 102 and will immediately begin heating.  It may not be up to temp by that evening but will definitely be hot and ready the next morning.

Congratulations on your spa and I hope you enjoy it for many, many years! :)

When we had ours installed on Oct. 7, it rained all day.  The guy said it would take 7 hours to heat the water, which is exactly how long it took.  Tub was installed by 11 a.m., we were in it that night.

It could depend on how many motors it has.  Ours has 3.
