Hello, this is my first post....But I recently bought a used Hot Spring Highlife, it is from 1995 and it is model K, the sticker says it draws 24 amps on a 230v circuit, when I opened the junction box there are 2 white wires, 2 red wires, and a blue wire. All the wires are in one jacket so I can't really distinguish between what is for what. Just wondering what I'm needing for this hookup. I called the guy I purchased it from and he's not answering and I also called the only hot spring dealer in my area and they were of no help. I can't find a manual for it online either. I would think I need 1 230v 30amp 4 wire circuit and to connect the white wires to the neutral and the reds to 1 leg of the 230v circuit and the 1 blue to the other but I don't know for sure and would like to know before I run the wire. Thank you for any help!!

Copied from Spa Depots website

"Spas Requiring Dual 240V GFCI Subpanel Breakers

2 GFCI Subpanel Example
Subpanel Example
Some hot tubs, such as certain models of Hot Spring and Caldera spas (Watkins Manufacturing), require a special subpanel disconnect containing two separate GFCI breakers: one for the heater, and a second for the pump and other components. These spas should not be wired to a single spa circuit breaker box such as our Connecticut Electric unit. Consult your owner's manual, the dealer, or the manufacturer for installation information. "
