4 Person Wood Fired Hot Tub – Compact Snorkel Stove Design

From: £2,891

4 Person Wood Fired Hot Tub – Compact Snorkel Stove Design. This compact four-person hot tub uses a snorkel-style heater inside the tub outline, avoiding the separate footprint and connecting pipework of an external stove. The arrangement is well suited to tighter terraces, although the heater and its guard occupy part of the bathing area. Compare the wood-only and hybrid choices together with the selected timber so seating, chimney access and electrical requirements are understood before the base is prepared. Its linked Wellness Basic sheet records a 1,800 mm inner diameter, 2,000 mm outer diameter, 850/950 mm inner/outer height, about 1,500 litres and 150 kg dry weight. The internal snorkel arrangement saves external space but occupies part of the seat circle, so the final written occupancy must reconcile the current “4 Person” title with the sheet’s 6–8-person nominal figure.

4 Person Wood Fired Hot Tub – Compact Snorkel Stove Design: an internal snorkel heater for sites where outside space is limited

The heater position is the heart of the design

By placing the wood-fired heater within the tub, this model keeps the overall installation visually compact and removes the exposed flow-and-return pipes associated with an external stove. That advantage comes with an honest trade-off: the heater and protective guard use some internal space, so nominal capacity should not be read as identical to a clear, heater-free shell. A hybrid selection adds electric support to the wood-fired system and can make temperature management more flexible, but it also introduces an electrical service that must be planned correctly.

The compact outline and the capacity figure need to be read together

This model is compact because the stainless snorkel heater is within the tub, not because the shell is tiny. The linked Wellness Basic drawing describes a 1,800 mm interior and a 2,000 mm exterior with 1,500 litres of water. It also gives a nominal 6–8 bathers, whereas the current product title says four people. Four adults is therefore the conservative buying interpretation until the quotation confirms the exact shell, benches and protected heater zone.

Internal wood heat or hybrid support

The AISI 316 snorkel option is the simplest configuration: direct wood heat, no separate external stove and no exposed flow-and-return pipes. The water-side heater and guard reduce usable room and require deliberate supervision. Hybrid wood-and-electric heating can hold or recover temperature more predictably and may suit frequent users, but it needs a correctly designed electrical circuit as well as all normal wood-stove clearances. Timber selection affects the cladding’s look and care; it does not change the 1,500-litre thermal load.

Decision Choices currently selectable
Heaters Double heating: snorkel wood fired + electric heater · Hybrid heating (wood+electric) · Internal wood stove · Snorkel stainless steel heater, 316 steel chemical resistant
Woodtype Larch · Oak · Spruce · Thermo Wood

Build the safety and water-care package around the internal stove

The included drink-holder fence, B-type stairs and paddle establish a useful baseline. A stainless heater lid and chimney guard are especially relevant where children or guests will be present, although neither makes hot metal safe to touch. Air or hydro massage and filtration can turn this compact tub into a more spa-like installation, but equipment boxes and power supplies erode the space saved by choosing an internal heater. An insulated leather cover is usually the practical cover choice; the wooden lid is restricted with some timbers.

What the current configurator identifies as included

Already included: (1) "B" type wooden stairs; (2) Wooden fence – drink holder in front of the heater; (3) Wooden paddle

Included equipment is valuable because it establishes a usable baseline. Displayed builds may contain additional systems, so the accepted quotation should repeat every included item.

Type of lid

  • Insulated leather lid (recommended)
  • With wooden round edge and wooden lid (not available with larch and oak)

Advantages: A fitted cover reduces debris and heat loss; an insulated leather cover is normally lighter to handle and more thermally effective than a plain timber lid.

Insulation

  • Wall insulation
  • Bottom insulation

Advantages: Wall and bottom insulation reduce heat loss from the water vessel and are particularly useful for frequent use, exposed sites and electric temperature holding.

SPA

  • Air bubble massage system
  • Hydro massage system
  • Sand filtration system with big wooden cover box
  • 2 LED
  • 4 LED (Recommended for 180 – 220 cm models)

Advantages: Air massage gives a gentle whole-tub effect, hydromassage provides firmer targeted jets, filtration supports retained-water use and LEDs improve evening visibility and atmosphere.

Smart SPA equipment add-ons (WiFi signal required)

  • Smart app – voice controlled system kit for air massage
  • Smart app – voice controlled system kit for water massage system
  • Smart app – voice controlled system kit for sand filter
  • Smart app – voice controlled system kit for electric heater (enables scheduled control, ON/OFF)

Advantages: App control can schedule electric support and make filtration, air massage or hydromassage easier to prepare before a planned soak, with separate control applied only to the systems selected.

Inside color

  • White (RAL 9001)
  • Blue (RAL 5012)
  • Gray (RAL 7015)
  • Blue Pearl (RAL 7700)
  • Gray Pearl (RAL 7730)
  • Granite (RAL 9001)

Advantages: Liner colour lets the visible bathing shell coordinate with the garden and can make the water appear lighter, deeper or more neutral without changing the tub geometry.

Metal parts

  • Ash shovel and rake
  • Metal fence on the chimney (heat protection)
  • Stainless steel cover on the heater

Advantages: A chimney guard reduces accidental contact risk, a heater lid controls access around the firebox, and dedicated metal tools make ash handling and routine stove care more orderly.

Water release type

  • Bottom water drain with a stopper (included)
  • External water tap
  • External water tap + Quick adapter for garden hose set (12.5mm & 15mm)

Advantages: An external tap gives better control over discharge, while the quick hose adaptor helps route water away from foundations, neighbours and soft landscaping.

Heating 1,500 litres with a snorkel stove

The technical sheet does not promise a model-specific number of hours. TimberIN’s general manual describes approximately 8°C temperature rise per hour for a correctly operated 2,000-litre example, with broad 2–3 hour warm-season and 4–6 hour cold-season guidance. This tub carries less water, but an internal stove must be submerged to the required level before lighting, dry fuel and an effective cover are essential, and wind or near-freezing feed water can lengthen the session considerably.

Allow for bathing room, guarding and chimney access

Position the tub so the firebox can be loaded without reaching across bathers and so the chimney can rise through a safe, unobstructed zone. Keep children and guests away from hot metalwork and follow the supplied guarding and clearance instructions. The selected diameter should be judged with the internal heater in mind, particularly if four adults will use the tub regularly. Confirm the filled load, delivery route, drainage point and any hybrid electrical supply before construction work begins; moving the tub later is a poor substitute for a measured plan.

Before production: TimberIN products are individually made, so published measurements are approximate. Confirm the selected live variation, final dimensions, included equipment, service requirements, delivery method and any critical tolerances in the accepted written quotation. Photographs may show optional equipment.

Questions about 4 Person Wood Fired Hot Tub – Compact Snorkel Stove Design

Does the displayed price include every option for 4 Person Wood Fired Hot Tub – Compact Snorkel Stove Design?

Not necessarily. The displayed amount follows the current base or selected configuration. Size, material, heater, equipment, delivery and installation choices can change the total; the basket, quotation or written order is the final commercial record.

What should be confirmed before delivery of 4 Person Wood Fired Hot Tub – Compact Snorkel Stove Design?

Choose the normal occupancy and shell size first; nominal capacity is not a comfort guarantee for every body size. Select heater position and fuel after checking usable seating, firebox access, chimney route and any electrical supply. Confirm delivery access, a level load-bearing base, safe filling and drainage, and the intended winter operating routine. Final dimensions, included equipment and site responsibilities should be confirmed before production or dispatch.

We are so happy with our hot tub! We took delivery of it around a month ago, and we loved it from the minute it arrived - more beautiful than we expected. We love the colour, the wood smells gorgeous, and it looks perfect. We are gradually learning how to manage the temperature with the wood stoked fire, but that's part of the fun, how it is so natural. The communication from the day of order to day of delivery was top-notch. Whenever I made contact with you, your reply was almost immediate. Your driver was polite and on time (even early!) And helped us place the tub ready for unpacking. Overall super service - a real treat for us to enjoy and would highly recommend. *****

Because of the pandemic we still have not managed to complete the decking/privacy shelter but the temptation to jump in before it is complete was too great!! Many thanks Rachel
