We are considering putting a hot tub on our lanai but someone told us we would not be allowed to run a 220 voltage line onto our lanai. It would be too close to the fans on our lanai, or something like that.

Do any of you know anything about this issue? Thanks in advance for your answers.
As usual, Villagethinker is 100% correct. We have a hot tub, 220v, on our screened in lanai, no birdcage. We capped the fan that was close (we have 3 others on the lanai). The fan is in my garage and I can do what I want with it now that the inspections are done. However, more concerning than a freak electrical accident is that you can hit your head on it when getting in/out of the spa.
