Wood Fired Oval Hot Tub In Grey | Woodpecker 2 Person Hot Tub

Wood-fired hot tubs are a sustainable and cost-effective choice for people looking for an eco friendly tub. Enjoy a faster heat-up, a touch of rustic charm, and the well-being benefits of hot water therapy – all while minimising your environmental impact. They're perfect for relaxation, stress relief, muscle pain management, and even better sleep, making them a great place to unwind with friends and family.

The heating time for a wood-fired hot tub can vary but you can expect it to be between 1.5 to 2.5 hours on average. Here's a breakdown of some key influences:

Season: In summer, with warmer starting water temperatures and better weather conditions, you can expect a heating time of around 1.5 hours. In winter, with colder starting water and potentially lower outside temperatures, it might take closer to 2.5 hours.

Wood Type: Dry, seasoned firewood burns hotter and heats the water faster than wet or poorly seasoned wood.

Weather Conditions: Wind and colder temperatures can slow down the heating process.

Initial Water Temperature: Colder water will naturally take longer to heat up.

Absolutely, the hot tub comes with a built-in heater! In addition to the heater, you'll also receive a convenient set of accessories, including steps, a thermometer, a rain cowl to protect the heater from the elements, and a paddle to stir the water for even heat distribution. We've included everything you need to get started on your hot tub journey!

Most of our woodpecker hot tubs require a 13amp plug. This is the most common and easiest to install. It plugs into a regular outdoor waterproof socket with RCD protection.

Maintaining your wood-fired hot tub is easy! Regular cleaning (tub & filters), annual chimney sweep, balanced water chemistry, and dry firewood storage are key. A good cover protects your investment.

Heating your wood-fired hot tub depends on a few things: size, desired water temperature, starting water temperature, weather, and firewood quality (dry wood burns best!). Start with a smaller amount and add more as needed to reach your perfect soak temperature.

For a comfortable and safe soak, aim for a temperature between 38°C - 40°C. Exceeding 42°C can be dangerous. Keep a close eye on children and elderly bathers, and stay hydrated before, during, and after.
