Hot tubs that trip between guests, original panels carrying modern loads, outages that hit while you're three states away — Manzanita Electric is the licensed, family-owned crew that keeps Sunriver homes and vacation rentals running, from just up Highway 97.
Sunriver runs on its own rhythm. Many homes here are second homes or short-term rentals, a lot of owners live out of town, and a good share of the housing dates back to Sunriver's early decades. That mix creates its own kind of electrical work: hot tubs that run hard all year, older panels carrying a modern load, outdoor lighting under resort-community rules, and problems that need fixing before the next check-in — often while the owner is hundreds of miles away.
Spas are the big one. Nearly every rental in Sunriver has a hot tub, and it's the amenity guests book for. We handle hot tub wiring and spa electrical from new 50-amp circuits to diagnosing the GFCI trips that come with age, freeze-thaw, and heavy use. When a bigger tub, a heat pump, or an EV charger for guests pushes past what the original service can carry, we do the 200-amp panel upgrade too.
Winter storms take Sunriver's power out like anywhere else in the forest. A standby generator keeps the heat on and the pipes from freezing in an empty house, and when something does go wrong our 24/7 emergency electricians answer the phone — for you or for your property manager.
We're based in Bend, about 25 minutes north. We know the Deschutes County permit process, we coordinate with Midstate Electric Cooperative, and we'll help you through SROA design review when the work shows on the outside of the house.
Spa circuits, panel capacity, and backup power — planned for homes that may sit empty for weeks or host a full house every weekend.
New 240V spa circuits, GFCI disconnects, replacement-tub rewiring, and troubleshooting for tubs that keep tripping. We get Sunriver rentals back in service fast and to code, so the next guest review isn't about a cold hot tub.
Hot tub wiring detailsOriginal 100-amp panels weren't sized for a hot tub, heat pump, EV charger, and eight guests running everything at once. We upgrade Sunriver homes to modern 200-amp service, with Deschutes County permits and Midstate Electric coordination handled.
Panel upgrade pricingAn outage at an empty second home can mean frozen pipes before anyone notices. A standby generator comes on by itself within seconds and keeps heat and the essentials running. We size it, set it, wire the transfer switch, and help with SROA placement review.
