Wood-Fired Hot Tub

By Brian Snedeker on December 8th, 2008

After much too long a hiatus, I have again begun scouring the web for the latest in weird and wonderful green tech gadgets. All for you, the talkgreen reader.

The above is not a still from an X-rated remake of “The Sound of Music.” It’s actually a promotional pic for a wood-fired hot tub. Of course your backyard scenery may not be as spectacular, but the darned thing supposedly will get the water up to 100 degrees in two short hours, depending on the outside temperature. And all without using anything but renewable energy. And it’s lightweight and portable too!

Still — a few questions. I wonder what the carbon footprint of this thing is? And, does it come in any colors besides nuclear orange?

Nuclear orange…lol

I can't imagine it working in the winter, especially in Montreal. There should be 4 heaters!!!!

Thanks isandro for the link to their website.

If you check the price tag on one of these babies it goes from US$6000 to US$10400.
It's kinda crazy but these bathtubs can be delivered anywhere in the world.
The look is truly unique so it might be worth it.

I know if Phoenix Arizona we have quite a few no -burn days which would limit the amount of use one would get out of this tub. I love the idea but I think I'll have to look at other portable spa ideas. I've seen this in a bright blue color as well.

A huge teacup, well this kind of tub won't be needing a heater to maintain the temperature of water but you must stock a lots of wood in order to balance the temperature
