It heats by \u003cstrong\u003ewood fire\u003c\/strong\u003e, from an integrated stove that sits in the water and transfers heat directly. You light it, wait, and get in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat is either exactly what you want or exactly what you don't, and it is worth being clear about which before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat wood-fired actually means day to day\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo electrical work.\u003c\/strong\u003e No electrician, no dedicated circuit, no panel upgrade, no permit for wiring. It can go anywhere on the property that a truck can reach — the far end of a garden, a lakeside, a cabin with no service at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo running cost.\u003c\/strong\u003e A conventional hot tub holds 100°F water twenty-four hours a day, every day, and you pay for that whether you use it or not. This one costs firewood, and only on the days you use it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt takes time.\u003c\/strong\u003e Expect a couple of hours from lighting to soaking, depending on your starting water temperature and the weather. This is a plan-ahead soak, not a step-outside-after-work soak. People who love these tubs tend to like that part — the fire is half the ritual.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou manage the temperature yourself,\u003c\/strong\u003e by how much wood you burn and when you stop feeding it. There is no thermostat. It is not difficult, but it is a skill you acquire over the first few uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoosing your interior\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe white plastic liner\u003c\/strong\u003e is an HDPE shell. Smooth, easy to clean, and the standard build. It is what most people order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum inserts\u003c\/strong\u003e replace the plastic with metal. Aluminum sheds heat into the water faster and more evenly than plastic does, which shortens the heat-up, and it will not scratch, stain or hold biofilm over years of use. It is a meaningful upgrade on a tub whose main friction is waiting for it to warm, and it is priced accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 people\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExterior dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35.75\" W × 83.75\" L × 29.25\" H (tub)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChimney height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110\" overall — check overhead clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterior dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 33\" W × 66.75\" L × 24.25\" H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 233 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Integrated wood-burning stove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical:\u003c\/strong\u003e None required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiner:\u003c\/strong\u003e HDPE plastic or 5052 aluminum inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCedar:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear or knotty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl insulated or cedar, available as an add-on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 84\" L × 45\" W × 44\" H, shipped on a pallet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheck your local rules before ordering.\u003c\/strong\u003e Some municipalities and most HOAs have something to say about open-flame appliances and chimneys, and a few restrict them outright.
