Wood Hot Tubs in Canada

Most Canadian hot tub manufacturers make models that can be placed indoors or outdoors. It's really a matter of personal preference. However, when installing a hot tub indoors you should consider that proper ventilation is very important to prevent mildew. In Canada wood hot tubs are mostly installed outdoors as they are in harmony with the natural environment.

Operating a wooden hot tub in Canada is the same as any plastic hot tub and you may want to invest in an upgraded cover. Northern Lights Cedar Tubs offers a R14 and an R21 cover. The R21 cover is more suited to Canadian winters both for cold and snow load. Other options to help with the cold are an insulted floor option which can be purchased as an upgrade for about $150.

Wood Fired Hot Tubs - Our great country is vast and full of space. We also have a great abundance of natural resources including trees. This makes heating a hot tub with wood an ideal option in Canada, especially in rural areas. Wood burning stoves are a great way to enjoy your hot tub without the added cost of energy. However, for more metropolitan areas such as Toronto or Vancouver, we would suggest an electric or natural gas heating option as wood burning stoves may be restricted in certain municipalities.
