Safety Features
Our heaters are engineered with essential safety features. If you're working on a diy wood fired hot tub, safety matters. The external wood fired hot tub stove body stays cool to the touch, as the internal fire chamber is surrounded by a water jacket. The outer surface warms only to water temperature levels.
To support diy wood fired hot tub builders and homemade wood fired hot tub users, the heater chimney features a lower thermal guard to prevent burns. Always follow key fire safety guidelines: maintain a 2-metre distance from roofs or flammable items.
