Edmonton's #1 Electrician!
Pool, Hot Tub, & Sauna Wiring
Expertly wired pools, hot tubs, and saunas by Edmonton’s most trustworthy electricians.
You’re upping your relaxation game and installing a pool, hot tub, or sauna. You’ve worked hard and you deserve this new addition to your home. You’ve done your research and you’ve selected your new amenity. It’s now time to install it. There are many parts to the installation but one of the most important parts is the electrical.
“We reached out to have someone take a look at an electrical problem we were having, Martin was our guy and was a pleasure to work with! He was clear and transparent about everything going on and made the solutions easy to understand” Yousef E
How well the electrical wiring is done doesn’t just impact how reliably your pool, hot tub, or sauna will operate, it has a huge impact on how safe it is.
Water and electricity don’t mix and when they do, the results can be deadly. This is why the Canadian Electrical Code has a whole section on pools, hot tubs, and spas. And our electricians know it like the back of their hand.
This is also why the City of Edmonton requires an electrical permit for pools and hot tubs. We will apply for the permit and handle all the required inspections for you.
Most of us understand the importance of safely wiring around water. However, for most of us thinking about checking if our house’s electrical system could handle the extra demand for power our pool, hot tub, or sauna needs, isn’t even on our radar. Neither is checking if our electrical panel has room for another breaker.
But it is on our radar. Not only will our licensed electricians make sure the wiring is done so it can be used around water, they know all the other electrical codes, regulations, and best practices. For example, how far your pool or hot tub needs to be from overhead lines, the type of electrical wiring (cable) that can be used underground, etc.
You can trust us to take care of all your electrical needs when installing your pool, hot tub, or sauna. Your home’s new feature will be reliable and safe for you and your loved ones to use and enjoy.
Are you ready to unwind? Then let us do the electrical on your pool, hot tub, or sauna installation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pools, Hot Tubs, and Saunas - Part 2
For more answers to your questions about pools, hot tubs, and saunas, please check out Part 1 and Part 3.
What is a heater?
Pools, hot tubs, and saunas all have heaters. And they do exactly what their name implies, they heat. In pools and hot tubs, they heat the water. In saunas, they heat the air.
Most heaters need electricity to operate.
Are there different types of saunas?
There are a few different categories of saunas.
There are indoor saunas and outdoor saunas. This refers to where they are located. Indoor saunas are installed in your home and come in freestanding models or models that are built right into the house’s infrastructure. They are usually easy to hook up to your home’s electrical system. However, a few holes may need to be made in the wall to access the wiring. Outdoor saunas usually have their own structure and may require electrical wiring to be installed underground.
There are also dry saunas and wet saunas. Dry saunas are a traditional Finnish-style sauna where the air is heated to a high temperature and has low humidity. In wet saunas, steam is either created by you pouring water over hot rocks or the steam is pumped into the room. A wet sauna that pumps steam into the room is also called a steam room.
Another type of sauna is an infrared sauna. An infrared sauna doesn’t heat the air like a traditional sauna. It uses electromagnetic radiation from infrared lights to heat your body directly. In fact, they heat your body before they heat the air.
They have a lower temperature of between 49°C and 60°C (120°F and 140°F) whereas traditional saunas typically have a temperature between 65.5°C and 92°C (150°F and 180°F).
