How much wattage does a spa pedicure chair use?

building a salon, was wondering how many pedicure chairs can go on a 15 amp circuit?How much wattage does a spa pedicure chair use?
If you're using chairs like the one at http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-PEDICURE-SPA-CHA鈥?/a> which draw 4.7 Amps for the chair (not counting whirlpool or discharge pump), you may not even be able to put one on a 15 amp circuit, because while it *runs* on less than 5 amps (which means 3 of them could run on a circuit), they draw about *four times* that much at startup... so they need nearly 20 amps to safely start.





A 20 amp circuit could run 2 or 3, as long as they're not started all at once.
