We just bought our first Hot tub, and I am trying to learn as much as possible. I am very nervous, but videos like yours make me feel more confident! Thank you so much!

Thank you for this incredibly helpful, informative video!! I’ve been doing so much research trying to piece together what prep work we’d have to do, and there’s no way I would’ve realized the trench to run electric had to be 20ft deep! So glad I watched this first. I feel way more prepared now - thanks so much for taking the time to film and post this!!
Thanks for Sharing Your Video. I just ordered a Hot Tub Today. Will be ready in 60 days. gives me enough time to get one built. any other type of wood to use. Awesome Job
Great vid. I’m looking into all of this. I’m not what you would call a handy man, but I am a perfectionist and will be doing this work, but with pavers.
Only one critique - I don't like conduit showing like you have where it goes into the tub skirt. I buried my conduit so that it comes out underneath the tub, so no visible conduit. No tripping hazard and it would have a much cleaner look. My two cents...;
thanks for this! watched it and followed a very similar method but used pavers instead of lumber to support. having the timeline outlined like you did in the video was really helpful.
@@Sam-um2ci a line of 11x7x1.5” (approx) cheap concrete pavers all around the perimeter of the tub. the cheap ones at home depot. if you do it right you can barely see them. it’s held up well for 3 years now
If you want true square, you measure from corner to opposite corner. If your measurements are the same on all four corners, and your wood is the same length, you are square. True square is not necessary here. Good video and good job with your build
Looks great! What kind of stone did you use? I couldn’t make it out. We’re trying to do this now. Did you dig out the middle? Or just the trenches for the 4x4’s?
You should have brought the power farther and under the spa so no exposed wires. Also the plastic conduit should have been metal. one wack and its cracked. Also should not be at ground level. under the siding edge would have offered some protection.
Just bought a hot tub and needed a GOOD idea of what I was in for. Thanks for making the video. Is there anything you would have done differently in hindsight now that it’s all done?
I am just starting my plan to install a hot tub at my home and I found this video amongst the most helpful of many that are on UA-cam. I don’t have the skill or time to DIY, but this helped me think through all the steps that will be necessary. I really appreciate it. Thank you.
Great video ,do you have any video about an equipotential bonding grid on Concret tick for swim spa I’m looking for ani información or video about it (regulations of the city) Tnks Erick great job 👍🏼.
Honestly, I don't remember all the materials. I bought some grade 1 pressure treated lumber, the coating to paint the ends, some galvanized lag bolts, 4 stainless (or were they galvanized?) L-brackets, and lots of gravel. I didn't measure it all out unfortunately. I had to go back and buy multiple loads. I used 3/4 minus gravel for the majority of the base, then I used 1/8 minus for the top inch or two, so that it would look a bit nicer and really pack down. Sorry I can't be more specific.
Great job. I'm looking to do the same thing and wanted to know why you chose 4x4 over 6x6 lumber. Most videos I see about gravel bases (for sheds granted) use 6x6 lumber. The tub I'm looking at 10x8 and I wondered if the 4x4 would be adequate.
Same question from me. The 6x6 seem so much heavier that the weight itself would seem to be an added benefit to strengthening this frame around the gravel. So I went ahead and bought the 6x6 (now $42 each during this lumber price spike). I also never bother to cut them so I would not have to stain the ends - by staggering the corner joins, I will get a nice square 7' 6" area inside the posts. I will have to dig a little deeper though for the posts so I can put the layer of gravel beneath them. I really appreciate this guy's professional approach as opposed to another video which didn't bother to place any framework at all to the gravel. I highly recommend this approach.
great video - I'm about to do the exact same thing (gravel pad base). Any updates/learnings since you originally installed? How's it holding up? Anything you would do differently?
Pad is great. Holding up perfectly. I’d probably buy a slightly bigger tub with leg jets. Love this tub, high quality, but would love leg jets. Oh yeah, and I would get LED lights behind the waterfall because I can’t see it at night! Otherwise, everything is perfect.
@@myboringchannel we just moved from PNW (Mukilteo) to just south of Nashville, were getting a 7x7ish tub, but all the leg jets and lights and speakers we'd need. Will begin digging out the space this week. Thanks for the vid, ill be following your steps. Go Seahawks
Size: 84 x 84 x 36 in. | 213 x 213 x 91 cm 7 seats Capacity: 400 gal | 1,514 L Dry Weight: 845 lbs | 383 kg The wood frame is about 2 inches longer on each side. I don't remember EXACTLY and I'm not feeling like measuring it right now. :)
Question, did you wire it in then fill with water? How did they check the electrical before you filled it the rest of the way. I am assuming the electrical is in it's own watertight compartment.
Do you think 1/4minus or 1/2minus would adequate for the base? I'm going to have about 7inch thick base and after seeing this video I think it's going to be a bit over kill haha. But concerned on size of gravel as I have had many people say different things.
Can’t remember exactly, but I think the wood was around $80. The gravel was cheap, like $15 per load (I think) and I got two or three loads. And the hardware was around 50 bucks I think. I definitely should’ve talked about that in the video. Regardless, it was much cheaper than a concrete pad. I already had the tools (tamper, level, etc.).
Great video, it is just what I am thinking to do now. I went through all comments here, the tub stays there over one year at least. My question is did you notice any uneven sinking of the tub so far, or any problem connected the base? I an in Toronto area Canada, it is much colder (-30 C ) and much more snow than Washington, do you think the kind of base good for my area? Thank you.
Hey nice job. I’m thinking of doing a similar pad. I subscribed to your channel. Could you of ran the electric yourself and still get it inspected? Just wondering why you didn’t, since you seem like the type who would learn how and do it. I’m not an electrician, but I’m thinking of doing it myself. That’s why I asked.
@@myboringchannel well said, please pay a licensed professional. dont mess with you or your families / guests safety. a good electrician is worth the price.
@@DuckTape12 1/4" minus and 1/2" minus. There is a section where I talk about that in the video and explain why I'm using the type of gravel that I am.
I’m so confused. So I cut the 4x4 exactly as you did. Measurements are perfect. If I measure inside edge of 4x4s it measures out to 82”x 82” . If the spa is 84 84 then how do you have so much space? I can even see gravel.
@@myboringchannel I hate to be a huge pain in the ass but could you measure the base? How do hot tub manufacturers get the 84x84 measurement is my question. I have a hot tub coming next month and I wanna make sure i have enough pad size. If not i a gonna make it bigger. sucks cause I already cut them .
@@myboringchannel got it, I had the local municipality come today and inspect the tub. I thought it needed to be in working order but he just made sure the wires were good. Appreciate the quick response
Looks like you’re in the Seattle area like us. We just ordered our hot tub from Olympic and it’ll be here at the end of May. Do you mind me asking how much you paid for your electrical installation? We need to get ours done too.
$1800. It might’ve been less but it was quite a ways from our electrical panel. Plus I went with somebody in town that was highly recommended and who does mostly hot tub installations.
@@myboringchannel thanks for replying. I was guessing around $1500. I’m guessing the 20” is standard in WA state for the trench for the electrical? The good news for us is our hot tub sits on the same side of the house that our electrical panel is on, so not “too” far of a run.
@@KorraTheFrenchie As I said, we could have saved some $$ going with a different contractor, but I went with the guy I trusted the most. Anyway, yes, 20" is the depth needed. At least for our area. The electrician made it pretty clear that the inspector might not pass the job if I didn't go at least 20" deep. Keep me posted on your project. Would love to hear how it comes out.
@@myboringchannel Thanks. I don't upload to UA-cam much, but I should. :) Will have to find a way to share some photos of the progress so far. We're doing a deck extension and making room for a hot tub under our pergola in the yard.
Love the Artesian. We use it almost every night. It took us about a month to really get the chemicals, etc., dialed in, but I think we've got it (for the most part). Haven tests our water for us for free, so we take a water sample down about once per week and make sure we're within the ranges we should be. Great pressure from the jets. The ONLY thing I wish for was LEDs under the waterfall! Ridiculous right? I want to see my waterfall at night. I can see it during the day, but at night I really can't. Such a stupid thing. Anyway, the Artesian seems really solid. Keeps temp, strong jets . . . can't think of any cons right now!
True Blazer Fan has it right (that's my channel too LOL). Anyway, I think concrete is probably better. But we were a bit over budget on this project and using gravel probably saved us around a grand. We could've had a pad poured, and obviously that would've been cleaner, but I'm happy with what we have. We will improve it as time goes on also. I want to build a patio around the entire hot tub at some point, and I also am thinking about a gazebo.
@@tmrolo they're probably talking about a ground to the concrete slab. He didn't use concrete and everything is already grounded to the earth. Electricity takes the path of least resistance to the ground.
@@myboringchannel haha! You’re just so mild mannered. Reminds me of him. Great video though, I saved it to check out later when I’m ready to put in my hot tub!

Use a tape measure corner to corner to ensure square. Much easier
