What maintenance is required on a Wood Fired Hot Tub?
Depending on how exposed the site is and weather conditions, wood may need to be treated every 1-2 years. On the larger burners, there is an anti corrosion anode that should be changed once per year – this costs around £50 and is very easy to change. Regular cleaning between use is recommended.

Yes, we can provide a 1m flue extension, price to be confirmed on order.
Can the burner be placed further away from the hot tub?
Yes, this can be done using a 3 inch radiator hose pipe. It voids the warranty if the burner is placed more than 1m away from the tub.
