Step one- Assemble the base
1. Place the two base halves upside down and interlock together.
Hint: If having trouble interlocking the 2 base halves together, make sure that one end is
interlocked together and bolt this end together through the bottom fastening piece
as shown. Once the bolt has been tightened, ‘wiggle’ the 2 base halves gently up and
down slightly and the 2 base halves should gradually join together.
2. Place the base connector pieces of wood in line with the holes on the base struts.
3. Insert the M8x100LM into the base connector pieces of wood and tighten.
4. Insert the M8x100LM into the bottom fastening pieces and tighten.
5. Connect the supplied flexible drain hose to the drain, making sure the rubber seal is
correctly fitted.
6. Carefully flip the base over and lay onto your desired position.
7. We recommend your wooden hot tub to sit either on a wooden deck designed to carry
the heavy weight or to sit on a solid concrete pad, paving slabs or crushed rocks with a
sand base.

Step 2. Assemble the tub wall & fit the bands
Hint:
Hint:
Hint:
Unwrap and place the firebox onto the centre of the base before building the hot tub
wall. This saves having to lift the heavy firebox over the hot tub wall later on.
Place something gently up against the hot tub wall to help keep the staves in place if
they seem a bit loose.
Place something suitable on the ground under the tub wall to stop the band from
falling down and going under the hot tub.
1. • Apply some silicon sealant in the position shown in the diagram on the next page,
to each stave before placing into position.
2. • Start with placing the stave with the semi-circle hole over the top of where the flexible
drain hose comes out from underneath the tub.
3. • Angle the next stave into the previously fitted stave
• Gently tap with the rubber mallet, firstly tapping the side of the stave so that it fits
up tightly against the previous stave, then tapping on the outside of the stave placing
in tightly up against the hot tub base. Alternate between tapping on the side and the
outside of the stave until it fits snugly together and there are no gaps. Make sure that
the whole length of the stave is in line with the previous stave in the upright position
otherwise the bottom piece of the stave could break off if tapped too hard on the wrong
angle.
4. • After gradually working your way around with placing all the staves onto the base,
the hot tub wall has now been formed.
5. • Carefully unwrap the stainless steel bands.
• Join the 2 band pieces together to form one
length, making sure that you have the correct pieces joined together-1 short length
and 1 longer length for the medium hot tubs for example.
• Ideally with the help of 2 people with each person holding one end of the band, walk
around the hot tub and place the band around at the bottom of the hot tub.
• Slowly tighten the band just enough to hold it in position at the base of the hot tub

.
If your hot tub is being set up close to the sea, a simple way to protect the bands
from the harsh sea air and to stop the speckled appearance of surface rust
appearing is to apply a coat of varnish to retain the shiny look.
• Slowly tighten the band making sure that it is level all the way around and in line or
just above the point where the tub base fits into each stave.
6. • Place the remaining bands around the hot tub making sure that the top band is
approximately 20-30cm from the top of the wall and the centre band is equal distance
between the top and bottom bands.
• Alternate between tightening the different bands and stopping occasionally to walk
around the hot tub ‘wiggling’ the staves to make sure they are closing up tightly
together. A creaking sound of the wood shows that the hot tub is tightening together.
• Don’t over tighten the bands as once the hot tub if filled with water, this will cause the
wood to swell up and expand forming a tight seal.
The bolts may appear to rust after a relatively short while but this is only surface rust
which doesn’t make the bolts any weaker.

Step 3. Assemble the firebox and lower fence
1. Carefully unpack the firebox and all the accessories from it's box and lift into the hot
tub if you already have not done this.
Before screwing down the firebox, make sure you have it in the correct position.
Position the fence and the firebox cover so that they all fit correctly and evenly together
making sure that the drain plug is located just on the outside of the fence for easy access.
Make sure that the drain is not going to be underneath where the bench feet for the seat
will be located.
Also, double check to make sure there is an even gap around the 2 cut out holes for the
flue and firebox lid on the firebox covers.
Screw down the firebox and fence.
2. Screw the rain cap to the top of the chimney, then fit together the flue pipes then
connect to the firebox. Be very careful of fingers while doing this!!
Place the heat shield into the correct position by undoing the small screw on the heat
shield then re-tightening when in your desired position.
It is recommended to take down the flue pipes when your hot tub is not in use and to
cover the opening in the firebox. This helps to keep any rain water out of the firebox
and also stops the flue from blowing over in situations of high winds.
A exhaust sealant can be applied to the flue joins. This helps to keep a water-tight seal
and helps to keep any rain water out.

Step 4. Assemble the bench seating
1. • Assemble the seats to the bench feet pieces making sure the 2 screw holes on the
bench feet are at the front and that the seat is correctly positioned as shown in the
diagram below.
2. • Place all the assembled bench seats in the correct position inside the hot tub making
sure that the 2 screws on the bench feet are facing towards the centre of the hot tub.
3. • When all the bench seats are in the correct position, screw them down.
Hint: When bolting the seats to the bench feet, use an Allen/hex key to turn the M6 x 75
bolt piece on the top while using a socket piece to hold the nut in place underneath.
If you do not have a socket set, simply insert a screwdriver up underneath to hold the
nut in place as you turn the bolt piece.
PARTS:
Hint: To adjust the seat height so that the most enjoyable water level for young and old is
achieved, simply place blocks of wood under the bench feet and screw down. Try
using the hot tub first to determine the best height then empty and re-screw the
into the desired height for optimum enjoyment.
