In Lake Mary the tub usually competes with the EV charger. Many 1990s and 2000s homes here already added one to a panel sized for the minimum of its day, so the load calculation decides how a spa fits.
That range is a typical hot tub or swim spa hookup: a dedicated 240-volt circuit and a GFCI disconnect. Short runs from a panel with room are the low end; long or underground runs and panels without space are the top. Pool equipment circuit repairs are diagnosed at our service rate and priced before we fix them.
If you could swap the city name out of this page and it would still be accurate, it should not exist. Here is what actually changes here.
A 50 amp hot tub circuit and a 40 or 50 amp charger circuit are both large loads on a 150 amp panel. A load calculation shows whether both fit as is, and it often avoids a service upgrade nobody needed.
The panel in these homes is often in the garage at the front, and the tub goes out back. A run along the outside wall or underground is measured at the estimate, because distance is what moves the price from the short-run tier to the long-run tier.
The wiring in most Lake Mary homes is in good shape. The pool equipment circuits are worth a look while we are there, especially if a pump or heater has been replaced since the house was built.
Duke Energy serves all of Lake Mary. Permits go to the City of Lake Mary Building Department, our office files them, and we meet the inspector.
Same ranges we publish everywhere, because the work does not cost more just because of the zip code. You get an exact number at the free estimate.

"The electrician Keylin was very professional and helpful. Did a great job for my EV charger outlet installation."
"After getting the run around from other electricians I came across In Phase. Wish I found them first."
"Unlike some of their competitors, they don't try to up-sell products that aren't strictly necessary."
"Talking with anyone I mean anyone at this company is like talking with a best friend."
Most 240-volt hot tubs need a 40, 50 or 60 amp circuit; swim spas can need more. The tub's spec sheet decides it, and we size the wire and breaker to match.
Yes. Code requires a disconnect within sight of the tub and at least 5 feet away from the water's edge, and the circuit must be GFCI protected. A GFCI disconnect handles both.
If it is rated for it, it needs its own GFCI-protected outlet on a dedicated circuit, not a shared patio outlet or an extension cord. Many people later convert to 240 volts so it heats faster.
Connecting the pool steel, rails, pump, ladders and nearby metal together so they sit at the same voltage. It is what keeps the water from shocking you. Missing or broken bonding shows up on inspections and should be fixed.
Get everyone out, turn off the pool equipment breakers, and call. Do not swim until it is tested.
We do the electrical side: circuits, disconnects, timers and bonding. The pool company sets the equipment itself.
