The stove

Screw the stove to the side boards so

that it stands in line with the bottom

boards on the side where the bolted

joints are. The stove should be

securely fastened with at least four

8 mm carriage bolts. The top of the

stove should be 5 cm above the upper

edge of the hot tub. Mark out where

the holes are to be, and then drill them.

The nuts should be on the inside, so

that the stove is easy to detach. Put

some silicone on the part of the bolt

that is not threaded.

The lifting power of the stove is

close to 200 kg when the hot tub is

filled with water. A poorly secured

stove can lead to serious burn injury.
The small mounting brackets on the

other long side of the stove, are fixing

points for the stove guard.

Fittings

The outlet

The outlet should be placed behind the

stove guard, approx. 10 cm from the

side boards. Drill and cut out a hole that

is approx. 65 mm in diameter. Make

sure that you do not drill in the bottom

joists! Put silicone under the screw

plate and fasten it with 25 mm screws.

Drill pilot holes with a small drill bit

and it will be easier to get the screws

straight. Fit a rubber pipe connection

on the overflow outlet pipe (the

straight, white plastic pipe) and secure

it with the hose clamp. Press down

the overflow outlet into the hole. Press

the bent pipe with a pipe connection

into the hole from underneath. Extend

the outlet with a hose, a pipe, a

rain gutter, or the like. Keep in mind

that you will empty a lot of water

out of the tub (approx. 3000 litres).

Now, the hot tub is ready. When it comes to fittings, you are free to use your

creativity, but there is still a couple of important points you have to perform:

Tip: Counter sink the

edge of the outlet

with a router or a

chisel, so that the last

of the water runs out

of the tub. This will

also make it easier to

rinse out dirt from the

hot tub.
