I have a customer who wants to put a hot tub on an existing porch concrete slab. The slab has a stamped design, and is stained to color it. Looking at the 2008 NEC, 680.42 says the installation must comply with Part II, which requires equipotential bonding including the perimeter, 680.26(B)(2)(a) and (b). Since it is an existing slab, I don't have structural steel available, and can't comply with (b) either because I can't get within or under the perimeter surface.
It seems that it is not permissible to install a hot tub on an existing slab under these conditions.
Has anyone dealt with this before?
Thanks for all your help
