Tub Heating
|
The burner sits externally from the hot tub and is connected by 2 hoses. Heat from either a wood fire or gas flames heats the water which makes it expand and rise up through the top hose and into the tub. At the same time, cooler water flows in through the bottom hose to replace it.
This circulation continues as long as there is a heat source in the burner, so the water in the tub steadily gets hotter. You can use gas (LPG) or firewood in this same burner To run it on gas, a fully compliant gas burner is attached to the burner door which fires out gas flames into the burner chamber. A cut out switch is included for safety. The gas burner output is rated at 48kW/hr which is a lot. A big plug-in electric heater in your house would put out about 3kW/hr of heat – ours is much more powerful which is why we can heat a lot of water fast. Starting the wood fire is easy for anyone; simply load up the burner chamber with paper and kindling, turn the gas flames on for 10 seconds and the fire is started so all very easy! Requires no electricity to run the burner so you fill up, use over the weekend for example then empty and refill. Runs only off an LPG bottle. |
The Burner
|
The large burning chamber enables very little re-loading of wood during the heating process.
Heats up the hot tub in around 2-3 hours from cold with wood or 3-4 hours with gas (possibly a bit longer depending on location and time of year). Included with the burner:

Includes
Canadian Cedar With ClearCoat
We only use natural Canadian cedar wood on the outside and inside of our tubs. No plastic or stainless steel inserts.
The inside of the tub wall and base are finished off in a maintenance free marine clear coat product. This makes our tubs more hygienic and easier to clean, stops wood rot which extends the life of the tub and significantly reduces the amount of tannin leaching which can discolour the water. We leave the seats in bare timber (no clear coat) which allows the cedar to emit a natural aroma which enhances the hot tub experience. A small amount of tannin can cause some water discolouration which will reduce over time as the water in the tub is replaced.
