Re-wiring a bathroom for a client who wants to reinstall a 240V heater within 2' of a new spa tub. I want to run the heater on a 240V GFI breaker because of the proximity to the tub.
The client is being cheap, no problem spending $4K on a tub but doesn't want to spring $130 for a breaker to possibly save their lives. So I need to find something in the code that backs me up on this.
608.71 only covers 120V receptacles. 680.72 is vague.
210.8 only covers 120V receptacles in bathrooms.
Is there somewhere else I can look?
Thanks for any help.
