Default Hot tub electrical question

Since the wiring for the old tub is all already there (I think it's 6 gauge, 4 wire) - even though it would be total over-kill, would it be an easy thing to convert this circuit to be a 110V, 15 amp circuit? Basically as simple as putting in new breakers of the appropriate amperage, and adding a receptacle to the end of the wire (previously it was wired directly into the tub)?


After the 220v/50A hot tub, you will be very disappointed in the 110V
models. They are very wimpy. Since you already have the wiring, I
suggest sticking with the 220v models.
