The external heater can be approached for loading and ash removal without disturbing bathers, which is valuable for family and hospitality use. Water circulates between tub and stove through an approved lower and upper connection, so pipe geometry is central to performance. The hybrid option adds electric support for a different operating routine, while the selected cladding timber determines the exterior tone and maintenance character.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"ti-wh-v4-section ti-wh-v4-technical\">\n<h2>The two external-stove sizes in exact figures<\/h2>\n<p>External Comfort is designed around clear bathing space: the wood burner stands beside the tub rather than taking a seat or becoming part of the shell. The 1,800 mm version is a 4\u20136-person, 1,400-litre model; the 2,000 mm version increases that to 6\u20138 people and about 1,550 litres. Both are approximately 150 kg before separate heater, stairs and equipment packages, so the final footprint is larger than the circular shell alone.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ti-wh-v4-table-wrap\" role=\"region\" aria-label=\"Wood Fired Hot Tub with External Stove \u2013 TimberIN Nordic\u2122 External Comfort technical data\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<table class=\"ti-wh-v4-table\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">1,800 model<\/th>\n<td>4\u20136 bathers; approximately 1,400 L; 1,800 mm inside; 2,000 mm outside; approximately 150 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">2,000 model<\/th>\n<td>6\u20138 bathers; approximately 1,550 L; approximately 2,042 mm inside; 2,240 mm outside; approximately 150 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Heater<\/th>\n<td>External AISI 316 wood-fired stove<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Hybrid option<\/th>\n<td>External wood stove plus electric support<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Chimney<\/th>\n<td>Approximately 2,000 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Delivery reference 1800<\/th>\n<td>Tub approximately 2,200 \u00d7 1,300 \u00d7 2,100 mm packed; separate side package<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Delivery reference 2000<\/th>\n<td>Larger selected drawing and access check required<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p class=\"ti-wh-v4-source\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.timberin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Fiberglass-outdoor-spa-with-external-burner-technical-sheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open the product technical sheet<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"ti-wh-v4-section ti-wh-v4-variants\">\n<h2>External-only simplicity or external wood plus electric support<\/h2>\n<p>The wood-only route is the cleanest operational concept: fire for each session, no high-power holding circuit and all seats available. Hybrid heat is better where the tub will be used frequently, where frost support is required or where a schedule matters, but it adds wiring, controls and another enclosure. The 1,800 mm shell is the efficient family choice; the 2,000 mm shell earns its extra volume only when six to eight people are normal. Timber selection should follow the desired maintenance and finish, not be confused with the smooth liner\u2019s water-side care.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ti-wh-v4-table-wrap\" role=\"region\" aria-label=\"Wood Fired Hot Tub with External Stove \u2013 TimberIN Nordic\u2122 External Comfort live variations\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<table class=\"ti-wh-v4-table\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Decision<\/th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Choices currently selectable<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Model (see technical sheets)<\/th>\n<td>180 cm for 4-6 persons \u00b7 200 cm for 6-8 persons \u00b7 \u00f81800 mm (inside diameter) \u00b7 \u00f82000 mm (inside diameter)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Woodtype<\/th>\n<td>Larch \u00b7 Oak \u00b7 Spruce \u00b7 Thermo Wood<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Stoves<\/th>\n<td>External wood-fired stove, 316-grade steel, chemical resistant \u00b7 Hybrid: Electric + external wood stove<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"ti-wh-v4-section ti-wh-v4-options\">\n<h2>Use the external layout to keep service access generous<\/h2>\n<p>An insulated leather lid works across the timber choices and reduces heat loss; the wooden round-edge\/lid route is limited to spruce and Thermowood.

External Comfort holds 1,400 or 1,550 litres, but long or poorly insulated connections, wind and a missing cover increase loss. Keep pipe runs as designed, use dry fuel, mix the water and reduce firing before the target temperature is reached.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"ti-wh-editorial-section\">\n<h2>Give the heater room to breathe and water room to circulate<\/h2>\n<p>Allow a firm base beneath both tub and stove, a short supported pipe route and safe access to the firebox. Follow the final drawing for connection heights and do not reduce pipe diameter or add restrictive valves casually. Keep the chimney clear of eaves, covers and planting. If hybrid support is chosen, arrange compliant electrical work to the supplied equipment data. Choose 180 or 200 cm based on regular occupancy and water volume, then confirm delivery access, drainage and a winter routine before the surrounding terrace is finished.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<aside class=\"ti-wh-editorial-decision\">\n<h2>A balanced family choice when the garden can spare stove space<\/h2>\n<p>External Comfort suits buyers who value unrestricted seating and straightforward fire tending.
