It does not say anything at all about how to accomplish the mortar
issue. It does say you need it. Looking at it, the actual tub 'target'
area is much less than the overall base area, so perhaps a sizable
mound of mortar is all I need to do....

I have already run a separate 15 amp circuit from the panel with a
separate ground for the motor assembly directly from the panel. 15
amps is what that motor calls for. I did run 12 gauge wire though
because the run is about 30 feet and it is a motor draw, but breakers
and GFI's are 15 amp as called for.- Hide quoted text -

If you ran 12 gauge, you should use a 20A breaker . Why not just put
in a GFI breaker. It's not that much more than an outlet. How did you
get $100?

mmm - the motor is rated for 15 amps calling for a 15 amp circuit.

Duh! Dummy me - I strung a 20 amp cable, and I have a 20 amp 240v GFI
from an old hot tub installation. I should just be able to use one
phase of that for my circuit! If I have a 20 amp circuit, whether I am
running a light bulb or a 15 amp device off it is irrelevant, as long
as I do not exceed the limit of that circuit. (smacking forehead...!).
One problem down ....
