Know before you buy
The Dutchtub uses a natural thermosyphon system. As you build a fire in the integrated basket, the water inside the coil heats up and naturally rises into the tub, while cooler water is pulled from the bottom to be heated, creating a continuous circulation loop.
Heating time depends on the ambient temperature and the quality of your firewood, but you can generally expect the water to reach a comfortable soaking temperature in about two hours.
Yes, the tub is designed to be lightweight. Because it does not require complex plumbing or electrical connections, you can reposition it in your outdoor space whenever you want to change your view.
The wood planks are designed for outdoor use, but like any exterior wood product, they will benefit from occasional cleaning and periodic treatment to maintain their finish and protect them from the elements.
No professional installation is required. Since it is a self-contained, wood-fired system, you simply need a level surface to place it on and a supply of firewood to start using it.
The Dutchtub is designed to comfortably seat two people, making it an ideal choice for a more intimate, relaxing outdoor bathing experience.
