So elegantly put together Craig! Nicely done!

thank you for posting this!

[@shigirsky]

Awesome!

How long or how many years will the cedar wood seating last? Any type of upkeep or cleaning for their longevity?

[@hello_goodland]

The cedar will last many many years. Depending on your needs it may not need to be replaced for 10-15 years however sanding it occasionally will help it keep even longer.

[@MK-qh7xg]

do you have to drain the water every time if you live in below freezing temps or will it eventually thaw it out?

[@hello_goodland]

You don’t no unless it drops really really cold. Depending on your area - but we don’t drain it after each use even in the deep winter. For extreme cold temps it is suggested to drain it instead of having it freeze totally solid.

[@omlette9214]

These are so fucking cool. would look to buy one this year

[@hello_goodland]

thanks!

[@appletv992]

Wow!
Do you have a sketch of the wood burning “stove” as I would like build it myself?

[@hello_goodland]

Sorry no

[@peterrettler679]

How do you regulate the heat

[@hello_goodland]

By adding more firewood to get to your desired tub. The more fire, the hotter it gets. If you get it too warm, you just add a bit of cold water like you would with a regular bathtub.

[@gsdpuppygta9754]

How hot does the tub get? What is the maximum?

[@hello_goodland]

We've got it up to 120 degrees! Depends how hot you want it :)

[@BKCREMERS]

How do you sanitize without having to empty the water each time?

[@hello_goodland]

You can add bromine, chlorine or hydrogen peroxide if you want to keep it.

[@Jworonow]

Clean out of the fire box?

[@hello_goodland]

Very easy with our Ash Scoop

Так в мене зайвих 6000 доларів нема ,але мені вона обійшлася при виготовлені 2000 .Украина.

[@scottmcshannon6821]

so there is no way to control the temperature, you just start a fire and hope you will like the water temperature?

[@hello_goodland]

Hi Scott, its actually quite simple. Just like heating water on your stove, when you stop adding fuel (wood, electricity, natural gas, propane etc) the water temp stops climbing. So once you start the fire, you let it burn for 90-120 minutes and once it gets to your desired temp you stop adding fuel and it will hold that temp for many hours. If you get carried away and it gets too hot, just run some cold water in there for a couple minutes like you would with a bathtub.
