Spa Trips Breaker
I'm in a similar situation. The back patio outlet is on the same circuit with the kitchen outlets (including stove & microwave). We bought a spa, placed it on the back patio, and every time that the spa is running and we try to cook something..POP!!!! Breaker trips. I'm looking at either changing the breaker to the next bigger one or hiring an electrician to do what needs to be done to make the patio outlet its own circuit (plenty of room in the box). My house is single story on a slab.
Thoughts?

Really, your best (and only in my opinion) option is to call in an electrician. It should be a quick and easy project to add a new circuit (or two).
