    220v spa question: With a 50amp breaker box outside, what amp breaker is okay inside?
    Currently, I have a 50amp GFCI breaker on the side of my house, getting juice from a 60amp breaker inside the house at the main breaker box. Is this okay or not? I have #8 wire I was going to run between the two...

    Here is from the electrical section of the manual: "If you have purchased a PHS-Series Spa, your new spa comes with a 12 foot GFCI Cord. Even though your new spa only requires 15 amps to operate, it requires a 20 amp dedicated receptacle. This system can be converted to a 220v service at any time."

    This spa was converted to 220v during the time it was operated by the previous owner.

    The indicated AMPS on the control box under the spa, for the heater... says 32 amps. I'm not sure what the pump is exactly.

    Thanks
