The wood burning hot tub collection holds SaunaLife’s round tubs for six or up to seven people, in natural or black thermo-spruce. You heat the water with logs, with no electricity required. From the outside it has the look of a wooden hot tub for a cabin or a backyard. Inside is a smooth fiberglass basin shaped for sitting. Choose the size for your group and the finish for your outdoor space.


Inside the wood-fired hot tub

The round thermo-spruce walls surround a shaped fiberglass basin, with the stove inside and no electrical connection needed. The spruce is baked in a kiln to resist moisture and rot, and the listings say it lasts up to twice as long as the wood in a cedar hot tub. These tubs are hand crafted in Northern Europe. Explore the maker's hot tub line or the full SaunaLife range to see more from the maker.

Six or seven people, natural or black

The six person tub measures about 81 inches across and holds a little over 300 gallons. The larger tub seats up to seven people, measures 89 inches across and 40 inches tall, and holds 436 gallons. Both come in natural with a dark gray basin or black with a black basin. Compare the tubs seating six or more and the outdoor collection.

Heating the water and what comes with it

Fill first, then burn logs in the stainless steel wood stove to warm the surrounding water. The six person tub's firebox has two chambers that draw more heat from the fire and burn less wood. Its listing gives a heating time of under two hours, but check the manual for your tub.

Each arrives fully assembled on a pallet with the stove, chimney, matching wood steps, folding insulated cover and drain tap. Set it on a solid, level base that carries its full weight. The chimney carries smoke above your head. Wood wax, paraffin oil and cleaner are options on the page. Pair the wood hot tub with the thermo-spruce barrel saunas or the cold plunge tubs.

Your questions answered

How does a wood fired hot tub work?

Fill the tub, then light logs in the stainless steel stove inside it. The surrounding water warms until the whole tub reaches soaking temperature. The chimney carries smoke above your head. There is no electric heater, pump or cord. Drain through the tap when you finish.

How long does a wood fired hot tub take to heat?

The six person tub's two chamber stove takes under two hours by its listing, but check the manual for your tub. The larger tub holds 436 gallons without a listed heating time, so expect longer. Keep the insulated cover on while it heats.

Does a wood fired hot tub need electricity?

No, the stove heats the water without an electric heater, pump or cord. It arrives assembled on a pallet. Set it level, fill it and light the stove. So a wood fired hot tub suits a cabin or a yard with no outlet.
