Woo hoo, am taking official delivery of the new tub tomorrow. J-335 just in time for the cool fall weather and nightly soaks. With this post comes general questions and yes involves electricity.

So the tub comes factory set for 50A and my setup is a 60 amp breaker with wires that are only rated for 55 amps. The tub at 60A will draw 45A. In order to make the change in the owners manual it states that I have to change jumper settings. I have done so much searching and can't seem to find the answer on how easy it is to modify the jumper. I don't think it would be a big issue to run it off 50 amps because I honestly like quiet soaks most times and will probably rarely want the pumps on high. I guess I just don't want circuit board damage. I had the wires inspected and was told they were fine, so I am just going to connect the tub myself.

So does anyone here have experience with modifying the jumper settings or will 50A be acceptable using a 60 A breaker. They say its a simple procedure but I just want to confirm it.

It's a simple task that your dealer's crew should handle easily for you at or before delivery.

Amen to that. I was looking at the old manual on here. The crew did set up that and was super simple. Also they told me the wires were good and everything is good and all i need to do is re-connect the wires. I am so relieved that everything is going to work out and I am going to save 1000 or so on electrical installation.

Enjoy your new Jacuzzi J-335 !  Our crew just came back from delivering the same Jacuzzi hot tub.
