Setting to work to design a legacy product, the AlumiTub was engineered 25 years ago to endure, to outperform, and to outlast the cedar hot tub as the world knew it. Tasked to never leak, arrive pre-assembled, handle saltwater with ease, and stand up to arctic-cold winters no matter how cold it gets outside - every piece lovingly formed and artisan-crafted. Becoming the world's most beloved hot tub and cherished by families across the globe, these are the stories that define its legacy.
We've made over 10,000 hot tubs. You've had countless good times using them.
Catskills, New York, High Woods A Frame
"Our AlumiTubs wood-fired hot tub blends beautifully with the natural atmosphere of our property, adding a touch of luxury, coziness, and deep relaxation for our guests. It’s become one of the highlights of every stay, helping us keep our calendar full year-round and inspiring many guests to return.”
Jenni Kayne Farmhouse Retreat, Upstate New York
"We absolutely love our AlumiTubs wood-fired hot tub at the Jenni Kayne Farmhouse. Its timeless design perfectly complements the serene surroundings, and soaking in it has become an essential part of our wellness routine. Our guests can’t stop raving about it, too—there’s something about AlumiTubs that turns every soak into a slow, dreamy indulgence."
Jillian Harris & Pustin Pasutto, Kelowna BC
"This isn't a hot tub, it's a life change, and I'm here for it. We use our AlumiTub constantly, whether we're hosting or having a date night just the two of us. This tub is absolutely gorgeous and has a timeless aesthetic which of course I love. With great heat performance we're able to use this tub all year long."
Lake House on Lake Superior, Northern Ontario
"There is nothing better than spending your fall evenings soaking in a wood-fired hot tub"
Wildwood Farm, Byron Bay NSW, Australia
"Our property got a major upgrade when we received the AlumiTub. We've hosted more birthday parties, Friday night fireside gatherings, and long table dinners around the tub than we can count. It's the centrepiece of life at Wildwood Farm. It's brought us together for many happy memories, with everyone we've had over asking how to get their hands on one for their own property. It's timeless, fun to use, and allows us to really absorb the beauty of our landscape."
"It's AMAZING and I find myself looking forward to crisp fall and chilly winter nights. Thank you AlumiTubs for our amazing new tub! We are sure to make a million memories with it! If you have a cabin... you are gonna want one of these!"
- A Frame Jewel, Minnesota Lake
"Overlooking Howe Sound the tub couldn’t be any cosier! Thanks so much, it is everything we hoped for and more…3 generations have already used the tub."
- Dan Lyle, Northern BC
Noah Cappe, Muskoka Cottage Country, Ontario
"Can’t tell you how excited I am right now. We had to get one for the cottage. The smell of cedar is in the air. Fun tub activated! It’s a pretty sweet set up. You’ve got the wood burning component and it heats up this box under here and there’s two holes that run through the box so the water that passes through gets super hot, it’s amazing. The hybrid component is pretty sweet, it fitlers the water and there you go. You can run heat from it to get it to temp faster or if you don’t want to light the fire and you just want to get it going, you can do that with the heater and it keeps it all fresh and clean for significantly longer.”

"A childhood dream came true! What started out as an experimental stock tank/cowboy-hot tub led to Uncle B (my brother) buying the real deal @alumitubs and changing our cabin culture forever...for the better obviously ;)”
Jess Krutz
"I can't believe the tub stays so hot! It heats so easily and the next morning when we went to use it, it had only dropped 3 degrees. It's well insulated and well made. Thank for this amazing experience!"
Andrew Geeves

The Brook PEC
"The perfect way to slow things down and reconnect with the majestic Canadian winter in beautiful Prince Edward County!"
Ryan Coleman
"No better place to sit and appreciate the winter wonderland than our alumitubs hot tub...this one addition has totally changed our appreciation of winter cottaging. We don't have running water in the winter so we fill it from the lake with a gas powered pump and best of all when we're done for the weekend all that's required is to drain the water and cover. No chemicals & no plumbing to pump antifreeze into etc. so simple and easy."
Monique Knudsen

Apsley
"My new obsession....I mean addition!"
Calvin DeBoer

"My wife and I took delivery of a large 8 person Wood fired Alumitub, to be used at our offgrid cabin. From start to finish, dealing with Josh at Alumitubs was a masterclass in customer service. He was friendly, professional, prompt with all his communications, and went above and beyond when it came to helping us out at all stages of the process. The tub is beautiful, high quality, and everything they advertise. I would recommend Alumitubs to anyone looking for a quality wood burning hottub with great customer service."
Alex Boikoff
"We needed to have our hot tub delivered to an offgrid cabin on a Saturday. Josh went way beyond to help us arrange it. Once we received it, the setup was easily done by my husband and we were enjoying it that night! Nothing beats sitting in the hot tub under the stars surrounded by nothing but trees and snow."

It makes it all so much easier for me to make it work for guests. I will start taking pictures of people enjoying it in the snow and letting everyone know about it, and I hope we’ll order more in the future for more cabins. "

"10/10. We had friends near Radium Hot Springs who loved their unit so we purchased one last year for a farm we are renovating. It is wonderful! We decided to pick it up ourselves and met the owners who were super helpful. It took just over 4 hours from unloading it to have it all setup and filled with water. On weekends, it's pretty much in use every night."

I can't believe how little wood it takes and how easy it stays at 40 degrees! There has been lots of interest from our cottage friends, so I've passed along your info! Thanks again for the great product & great service! Happy Summer!"

Best investment I made. Love this hot tub. Enjoy the design, like no other. AlumiTubs has been very supportive, great communication. I've been enjoying the soak morning and evening, with a coffee and a beer, especially with the very cool weather we have in Wisconsin. Don't wait on making this life changing purchase. Thank you AlumiTubs.
Jessica Willett
The Alumitub is astonishingly easy to set up—just unbox, slap it together, & fill—it creates a profoundly peaceful, spa-like retreat right in your backyard (or wherever you choose to set it up). The moment you sink into its warm water, tension melts away as you listen to the flames crackle in the firebox. This hot tub isn’t just a luxury—it’s a simple oasis of serenity that makes relaxation effortless. It has elevated our farm stay and our guests (and us!) love to use it as a peaceful and easy way to end the day.
Christine Tracy
If I could give ten stars , I would! Customer service : A+. The tub is by far the best gift that keeps on giving ! We received our tub last September. The delivery was smooth, as was the pick up. No damage or issues. The assembly was super easy with two people ( just watch the videos :) . We used it all winter (in the Rocky Mountains) and it was the highlight of the season!!! (And our neighbors love it hahah ). The best part is that once you get it heated and you want to use it the next day, it takes maybe just 30 minutes to get it piping hot again (in single digit winter temps). It holds the temperature superbly!!!! The quality of the construction of the tub is top notch. Solid. We have a well system, too, so water conservation is an issue. Therefore we are really excited to try the new filtration system !!! Overall, hands down the best purchase for our place and definitely worth the wait !!! Thank you, Josh and Laura!!!
Colleen Hermann
What a wonderful experience! It brings the joy of being outdoors, surrounded by nature and the nostalgic scent of campfire smoke. There’s something truly special about the combination of fresh air and a steady fire. It creates such a warm and memorable atmosphere. Highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys connecting with nature!
Ben Miller
We have had tub for about a year now and we love it! I had a shipping issued with the tub being damaged and Josh was immediately helpful and resolved the issue. I would highly recommend their product and their business.
Scott Hauser
I was searching for an outdoor wood-fired hot tub for a while to have at our remote and rustic property in the upper Midwest. I was always a little hesitant of going with one that was only cedar because of how it would last over time with the winter/summer cycle and the wood constantly expanding and contracting. That's when I found AlumniTubs, and it was the perfect solution! I love the aluminum tub surrounded by cedar; it is the perfect mix of longevity and aesthetics! It has already survived a harsh winter with no issue, and we have used in a lot in the time we've had it so far and we love it! There is something great about sitting in the woods in the hot tub with the smell of the fire going in the fire box that is absolutely awesome! In addition to the great quality and craftsmanship, the customer service was excellent throughout the ordering, shipping, and delivery of the tub!
Grant Schelske
We can't say enough good things about our AlumiTub and the entire experience from start to finish! The team at AlumiTubs is top-to-bottom professional. A close friend has had one at their family cabin for years, and ever since, it’s been a dream of mine to own one too. After over a decade of waiting, I can honestly say it was more than worth it — we’ve been absolutely thrilled. The ordering process was super smooth, and shipping was incredibly accommodating. We had a scheduling hiccup on our end and couldn’t receive the tub on the original delivery date, but the AlumiTubs team made it easy to reschedule for a time that worked better for us — no hassle at all. As for setup, it couldn’t have been easier. The video guides were clear and helpful, and we had it up and running in no time. Now for the best part — enjoying it! There’s truly nothing better than sitting lakeside in the warmth of a clean, wood-fired soak, surrounded by nature. It’s peaceful, simple, and deeply satisfying. If you’re looking for an off-grid, Canadian-made hot tub that’s beautifully built and backed by amazing customer service, look no further. This is the one you want!

I got the Hybrid Tub for my Airbnb—it’s amazing! The customer service at AlumiTub has been incredible. We ran into a few unusual, never-before-seen hurdles getting it to the U.S., and their team worked with me non-stop to resolve everything. Even months later, they still respond quickly to any questions I have. I feel truly supported and hope to buy more tubs in the future.
Lauren Johnson
We absolutely love our AlumiTub. I had searched for a long time to find the right tub for our home in New England, as very cold winter weather means only certain types of tubs can be used year-round. Also, the location I wanted to use made a traditional tub hard to install (and traditional tubs are ugly). SO glad I found AlumiTub. The shipment was easy and delivery came to our rural location; installation was easy (done by our contractor who built the deck) and we were in the tub the same day he finished. The instructions on how to use are very good, which isn’t always the case. I had no trouble setting the tub up myself. The tub is beautiful and heats up quickly…really quickly with the fire box. We love it so much we will probably get a second one for our lakehouse. Highly recommend.
Gerry Belec
There is a 'Zen' component to an Alumitub hot tub. To be honest, I wasn't expecting that feeling of satisfaction to sit in the silence and tranquility of the space that you must curate to enjoy. Getting the wood, filling the tub, lighting the fire, and watching the temperature rise over time. Anticipation. The smell of cedar, the sensation of the hot water, the silence of the soak is the perfect end to that ritual. To the first time user it may feel like you are feeding and caring for your tub......and then you realize it's feeding and caring for you. Thank you Josh and team for looking after Maddie and I. We LOVE this tub.
Ian Gates
My wife and I took delivery of a large 8 person Wood fired Alumitub, to be used at our offgrid cabin. From start to finish, dealing with Josh at Alumitubs was a masterclass in customer service. He was friendly, professional, prompt with all his communications, and went above and beyond when it came to helping us out at all stages of the process.
The tub is beautiful, high quality, and everything they advertise. I would recommend Alumitubs to anyone looking for a quality wood burning hottub with great customer service.
Lars Christensen
Very happy with our newly arrived Alumitub! Is was an absolute pleasure dealing with the sellers as well. Such a versatile and maintenance free tub.
Greg Ellsworth
This has been a totally amazing experience. From when we first reached out for information about the alumni tub right up onto now. We’re sitting in our tub enjoying every minute of it!! Fantastic product and a fantastic staff that work for them. Thanks for your caring support.
Nathan Snavely
What a great addition to our lives! The tub (and the process of using it) are a soothing and authentic experience in a busy and connected life. Interactions with the people at AlumiTubs were a delight. We feel blessed to enjoy our purchase.
Jeronimo B
I love the product! The entire process was seamless. And the tub lived up to my expectations. We use it almost every weekend (we’re in Cape Cod). Easy to fire, easy to maintain. I highly recommend it.
Cara Hathaway
We love our Alumitub! Amazing off grid option and so aesthetically pleasing! Matches our retreat perfectly! Super impressed with the ability to retain the heat for days with minimal wood! Highly recommend!
Curtis Dekker
Really love the tub. Back yard soaks have been a daily occurrence! Company has great customer service and a great product that will last for years. Happy customer!!!
Gary Kaufman
We love our AlumiTub. Great company to deal with (quick response, great communication). The tub is beautiful. Assembled easy, and heats up quickly. Perfect for our remote location.
Ryan Cummiskey
Our Alumitub is AMAZING! Everything from our ordering experience, expected delivery timeline, setup, and use has exceeded our expectations. We only wish we had bought one sooner! Josh provided outstanding support throughout ordering and delivery and you can tell how much pride the team puts into their product. Highly recommended!
Joanna Mills
High quality product - delivered on schedule and shipped safely across the country! Works like a charm at our remote fishing camp and the owners respond very quickly to questions!
Bradley Isbell
We love our Alumitub!! It is way more efficient than we expected. literally one fire a day in the stove keeps it in the 100 degree range for 24 hrs! I highly recommend Alumitub!
Mike Hopkins
Our purchase experience with Alumitub and Josh was everything we hoped for. Communication, delivery, ease of use, maintenance were all top notch. We love our Alumitub !
Jim Clifford
I just installed and set-up my AlumiTub and spent the weekend soaking. The AlumiTub team have engineered an amazing product, I am still stunned that it all went in so well and that the heating process was so effective, thank you!

I use the tub every weekend every night love the Alumitub ???? …
Anna Bona
We love our hot tub! Beautiful tub and great customer service:)
Jian Tao Zhang
Awesome hot tub, looks good from our deck.
Jason Cale
Wonderful tubs, well crafted and easy to use—it’s a beautiful addition to our yard. Whole experience from buying, delivery and setup was smooth. The team made sure I was taken care of and up to date throughout the process. You get benefits of small business and robustness of many years of experience. In an age where most spa products are rebranded alibaba junk with a huge markup I was so glad to find a company that builds high quality product in-house. 100% recommend. Will be getting another once my cabin project is underway!
b cramer
We’ve had our Alumitub for several months now, and it has been a fantastic purchase. It feels much more durable than the wooden hot tub we had before—sturdier construction, better insulation, and no concerns about leaks or warping. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and it looks beautiful in our outdoor space. We love the subtle scent of cedar when it’s fired up—it adds a whole extra layer of enjoyment. The wood-fired heat-up process is surprisingly quick and easy, and the whole experience feels more natural and relaxing than the propane tub we’ve used. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a high-quality, outdoor hot tub that blends form and function.
Vicky Greever
We had a great experience buying from Alumitubs. We wanted a natural cedar tub to match the aesthetic of our home in the woods but didn’t want the maintenance of a traditional cedar tub. When I found Alumitubs I thought, this is exactly what we wanted! We went with the electric version for the ease of just hitting a button and having it turn on. Communication, delivery and timing were all great. The tub was easy to install and works as advertised. They shipped it to us all the way to California! The quality of the cedar wood is top notch and we really enjoy its fragrance while relaxing in the tub. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a natural hot tub.
Sterling Hutchinson
"Absolutely loving our tub so far! We purchased our tub with the electric heater and it’s working wonderfully. The installation instructions were fairly easy to follow. And their customer support responded quickly to questions we had. Can’t ask for much more than that."
Fletcher Beaudoin
Our Alumi tub is amazing. Spacious, beautifully designed and easy to install. We've had many great soaks already. We've also been super impressed with the customer service as we got the tub and had some immediate questions. Great product, great company.
Gabriel Sands
We love our Alumitub! Easy to operate and easy to care for. Would recommend to anyone looking for an alternative to a chemical ridden, jacuzzi-style tub. Josh and the team provide excellent customer service and it's a pleasure to support their business.
Alex Jessop
I couldn't have been happier with the whole process, start to finish. The team at AlumiTubs provided excellent service and accommodated my request when I told them I wanted to surprise my wife with one for her birthday by moving up the production date. I order the large tub and set it up on an island cottage. Moving it was awkward but manageable with some help from friends. We use a gas transfer pump to fill it which takes about 20 min and then to heat it takes about 3 hours with a hot fire from very cold lake water. I put the recommendation insulation underneath and that seems to help. It's a very comfortable tub to sit in.
Re Metau
We run Canvas Cottages Glamping, and wanted to offer an off-grid hot tub to our guests. AlumiTubs is an absolutely fantastic company to work with, and the wood-fired hot tub is wonderful! All the information and videos that were provided on everything from start to finish made the process so much easier. The tub took very little time to assemble, and once it was heated, is very comfortable. I highly recommend Alumitubs!
T
I ordered a standard sized Alumitub for my cabin build and could not be more pleased. Fires are easy to get going and with just a few logs in before bed the tub is still piping hot for a morning dip. The team has been super responsive to questions I had throughout ordering and after delivery.
Emma Petrakis
"Wow wow wow. If you're on the fencing thinking about it, just do it. You will not regret it. The Alumi tub has been such a wonderful addition to our cottage. SO easy to put together and worth every penny. Plus the company is a dream - such phenomenal customer service and they set up everything for me flawlessly. We use ours off-grid style. Fill with lake water and dump back in after a few days/weekend use. So nice to not have to use any strong chemicals - so eco friendly. We got ours early spring and have used it in some colder temps so far and it's worked like a charm. Really looking forward to using it in the winter the most. It really is exactly what we hoped it would be and more!!"
Cassandra Hughes
"5 Stars Our tub arrived safely last week, and we couldn’t be happier! We picked it up from a nearby dock and rolled it into our backyard with ease. Now the fun begins—using the upcoming holiday week to prepare the site and get the tub placed. It’s so helpful to have it on hand to visualize how it fits in our space. We’re really impressed with the quality and sustainability of the build. Every piece feels solid and well-crafted, and we love that the components are replaceable or fixable. This was a big factor in choosing this tub over our second option, which, while beautiful, was far more expensive, harder to repair, and would have required hiring a landscaper for installation. A big thank you for the clear and consistent communication throughout the buying process. We’re thrilled with the tub and can’t wait to get it installed and enjoy it!"
Allison Murray
We absolutely love our Alumitub! Great investment in our mental health, and in making our backyard a vacation type space. It is super relaxing, especially on a cool evening. The cedar smells fabulous. Was a bit of work to get it off the truck and set up, but completely worth it.
Marc Ghanem
We were contemplating an Alumitub vs a different wood fired hot tub from a local distributer. What I can say is - I'm super glad we ended up deciding on the Alumitub. We ordered the large size, and its super spacious. There's a ton of space in the middle to avoid footsies. From a design perspective, it's beautiful. It's both modern and rustic, with clean lines. Quality is impressive, including all the accessories. Service has been top notch: one of our accessories was meant for a different sized tub - the right part was shipped out the next day, and arrangements made for the wrong part to be picked up at our convenience. It's been an ideal experience so far, and we expect this tub to last us decades.
M P
The buying experience was great and setup was a breeze. We’ve had our Alumitub for a few months and loved it. Seems like a product that will last a long time. Highly recommended for your rural getaway!
Alexis Campestre
"We received our AlumiTub in early April and let's just say it's received a lot of use already! We absolutely love it and cannot recommend the AlumiTub enough. The stove is quite effective at getting our cold Montana water up to temperature in a reasonable amount of time. I spent quite a lot of time researching a wood-fired hot tub that would work for our needs (short-term rental on a farm), and finally settled on the AlumiTub because it looked like something that would truly last a long time and endure all the abuse that comes with short-term rentals. If you are on the fence, get off it and get in the tub."
Pierre Trepanier
"The Alumi-tubs team produce a beautiful product - we installed ours last week and have been enjoying it everyday. 100% satisfied. Also: Josh and Amanda and the team in Sechelt are so friendly - they clearly love what they do. Highly recommended."
Jonathan Pearlstein
We got the electric version of the tub and love it! Super relaxing, and what we didn't anticipate as how much our kids would love it too. We turn the temp down during the day and they use it as a kiddie pool.
James Polk
Very well done product! Got ours this month in the snow and set it up. Really enjoying it. I heat my home with wood, and the wood stove in the hot tub performs very well. Easy to get it started and it takes off, well designed for a good draft. And it holds the heat! Thanks for a great tub!
Jeremy Sewall
We've owned a wood fired alumitub for a year now, and are delighted with it. It came packaged up on a pallet, easily moved (on a large trailer) to our off grid location. Assembly was straight forward, and it works like a champ. I've been amazed at how long the tub will stay hot after it comes up to temp. If we get it to 42 degrees in the evening, it'll still be at least 38 degrees the next morning, giving the kids a fun morning dip.
Wonders NeverCease
"I am very grateful that a friend of mine here in Woodstock New York turned me on to Alumitubs. At her suggestion, I bought one a few years ago for my weekend home, and it is incredible. I use it with my family every weekend, and it bring us so much joy, and is much easier to use than I had expected. In fact, we love our alumitubs so much, that when we bought an investment property we installed one there, too. Guests love it (4.98 rating on airbnb) and our crew has an easy time prepping it. Over the years, whenever i have had any questions about the tub, the owners of alumitubs and/or the community of alumitubs users have been quick to offer expert advice. 10 out of 10. Thank you, Alumitubs, for your awesome product."
Amanda Akers
We could not be happier with our hot tub and the whole buying experience. The tub is super well built with very high-quality materials. The buying experience was very easy and personalized. Josh answered all my questions personally and made sure we had everything we needed. I wish we could have gotten the tub sooner, but the long lead times speak to how much people love Alumitubs! And for very good reasons. The tub is a dream come true. Sitting under the stars, listening to the wood fire crackling, and relaxing in the hot water. It's pure luxury -- in the best, most natural way. We LOVE it!
Lonna Peters
Yes, a resounding yes to Alumitubs and their exception products and customer service! We are looking forward to enjoying our tub for many years to come. Thank you so much for such great support.
A R
We recently purchased an Alumitub hot tub and we are extremely satisfied with the purchase. The tub is well-built and looks beautiful in our backyard. It feels like we are on vacation every time we get in it. It’s absolutely magical.
Ariel Haunschild
"The owners were very helpful with questions and answers, they responded quickly and were super accommodating with shipping support and delivery options. The tub was packaged very well and arrived on time."
Nick Langenegger
We’ve had our tub for 7 months now, use it almost everyday and couldn’t be happier with it. There’s no comparison to the cedar tubs that need to swell to be water tight. Also Josh has been very helpful and responsive throughout the whole process even well after the purchase. 5 Stars all around for AlumiTubs!
Sean Maki
Fantastic company and product. We have had our tub for over a year now and are still enjoying it on a weekly basis. Highly recommended in terms of quality and craftsmanship.

The Rural Runaway
We bought an AlumiTub a few years ago and we can't say enough about it. It's well built, we like the it's canadian made, the owners run the business and it was great working with them directly. We were surprised that the price was actually less than other wood fired hot tubs that don't have the aluminum interior. The tub is superior to the last wood fire hot tub we had at the cabin. It's literally the lowest maintenace thing at our cabin. Durable, well-built, fast heating and the heat lasts days with the lid on between uses. I've referred 3 of my neighbours because our family loves it so much. Easy to set up, easy to operate, super easy to clean. Awesome awesome awesome. This thing is bomb proof, it's the cornerstone of our cabin and it brings the whole family together.

"Great tub. Have had it 1 year now and it performs well with few hiccups which are mostly on our part. Am fortunate to have 2 neighbors who are guiding us through the initiation process. Worth the investment ??"
Alex Walker
We needed to have our hot tub delivered to an offgrid cabin on a Saturday. Josh went way beyond to help us arrange it. Once we received it, the setup was easily done by my husband and we were enjoying it that night! Nothing beats sitting in the hot tub under the stars surrounded by nothing but trees and snow.

"Alumitub fits my need’s perfectly. I go away for 14 days every 14 days and just drain my tub. Fresh water when I return and can enjoy it the same day. No electricity bill, no worry about temperature or freezing when I’m gone. The hot water, smell of the cedar, crackle of the fire…. What more could you ask for. I’m just glad this concept exists. Thank you alumitub."
Christopher Deguire
"Frustrated with our softub’s quick heat loss, we started researching alternative solutions. Stumbling upon Alumitub’s easy to use website, we we’re able to easily order a wood burning hot tub direct from the website. Not only is it easy to use, we feel good about it being green and not using unnecessary energy. Ps, it can add a spark to your love life ;)"

I'm so happy with my AlumiTub! Setting it up was relatively easy for my husband and I and we have enjoyed many relaxing soaks in it since. We enjoy the ritual of filling it, heating it and enjoying days of use. I'm amazed at how well the tub retains heat.
Miranda Rundquist
We ABSOLUTELY love it.
Jeff Allen
"Amazing hot tub, I was never a person who liked the traditional style tubs with jets. This is totally different - it looks amazing in my backyard and was easy to pick up and put together. Josh and Amanda were amazing, from the ordering process to handling an issue I had due to a mistake I made, they completely took care of me. Extremely happy with this purchase"
John Hawkins, Lake Superior
Got our tub installed on Lake Superior and it is awesome!! Thanks so much!! Family is loving it and it will be a game changer for our little cabin on the big lake.
Cecily Byrne
We love our AlumiTub! Josh and Amanda were extremely helpful throughout the process of buying our tub. We opted for buying the hybrid version to enjoy being able to heat it with wood in the winter but maintain the warmth year round. We had an initial problem with the pump and heater, but Josh was quick to send us an upgraded version and it’s been running smoothly since. We love that we don’t need to use harsh chemicals to keep the tub clean, and we just received our yearly supply of all natural cleaning products for the tub!! We highly recommend this cedar tub and the great staff at AlumiTub!!
Hugh Graham
We absolutely had the best response from Josh (owner of Alumitubs) due to a stressful shipping situation for our tub arriving in Nova Scotia in early June. He was caring, compassionate and comforting. Without going into details, he showed immediate concern and remediated the situation in a timely fashion. It's nice to know that today, there are still companies/owners who genuinely care about their customers. Thank you Alumintubs! You Rock!
Christian Svensk
Super-friendly and responsive customer service, which is hugely important when making a fairly costly purchase from across the border (into U.S.). Everything went smoothly and the tub was delivered well-ahead of the quoted timing. We use the tub weekly in the cooler months. We have a near-endless supply of quality oak, so your wood supply (well-split and seasoned) is a critical factor. Moving the tub around your property is easy (roll it). Definitely need perfectly flat area within hose range. Easy to drain, recommend hard cover. Fire takes practice, take your time, keep wood and oven dry, get a propane torch for lighting - you will get it and it’s pretty satisfying, but there are chores/PREP involved. No electric bills, keep it hot all weekend! Tub itself is quality, nice, smooth metal work, solid. No noise/vibration, so night tubbing is bliss. Unpacking and set up are fairly straightforward, but take your time. If you have wood, aren’t afraid of DIY, and want pure peace, then this tub is for you.
Evan Roll
Amazing Tub!!! - have had ours for 2 months now at an off grid cabin - total game changer - we love it more than we could have possibly imagined. Delivery ended up being 2 months early and Josh was so amazingly accessible with any questions that came up. Thank you!!!!

After barging our AlumiTub over to our wildfire-burned lot on Loon Lake 7 years ago, two of us rolled it up the hill and installed it. It's been the highlight of all our (and our grandkids’ and guests') stays there, and a welcome relief after a hard day’s work building the cabin. Maintenance and upkeep have been easy. The Alumitub is built to last and we expect several generations to enjoy it over the years. The most memorable night was soaking in the hot tub with a cool one, watching a sky-wide northern lights display against the backdrop of burnt tree trunks.
James Mallick
"Just to let you know my tub arrived safely in Kamloops and on time. Hauled it to the lake and transferred from one trailer to another after unbundling it and took it the last km on an ATV road to our property. Last weekend we constructed the support for the tub and began the associated deck. We were able to try it out and it heated the water to 102 degrees F in about 3 hours. It worked well. I will send a picture when the deck is finished. We are pleased with the tub in every way. Thanks again."

"Low-bank waterfront access affords the use of saltwater to fill it. It's like a hot mineral bath, I highly recommend getting one of these!"
Christina Crain
"We didn’t really think that two little pieces of wood would heat it back up to temp after sitting all night and day, but holy, did it! We had to add some cold water. Looking forward to hanging out and enjoying some star gazing."

Brad Shadlock
"Hi guys. Love my Alumitub. I get people going by in the boat. They look and wonder what is that? So if you wanted to produce a small plaqard with your logo and web address, I’d be happy to put it in the deck!"
Joanne McSporran, Read Island BC
"We installed our tub by the ocean on a remote island 1 year ago. We were advised by neighbours (seems this island has as many alumitubs as personal sawmills) as to location, ie where will any smoke blow? avoid blowing smoke toward sitting areas or windows (not much smoke anyway except at start up), situate where you have a great view of the stars. In our case, the ocean too. Now the plug for having a tub. If you are planning on building a home or cabin, put the tub in FIRST. I didn’t think I would be thrilled with it. It seemed like a bit of foolish extravagance. But day after a day of doing major repairs to our cabin, living in a construction zone with none of the usual comforts, like a place to cook, we found a soak in the tub before bed to be absolute heaven. My husband even discovered that he could use the fire of the tub to cook smokies for dinner. Hot food! on a cold rainy night. It’s usually not a daytime thing for us. We work hard all day. But in the evening whether pouring rain, silent fog, full moon or a million stars, listening to the creatures in the ocean and feeling the wind, smelling the trees, It’s all good. And comfortable enough to stay outside and come in feeling content and ready for bed. So, make the project fun by treating yourself to the hot tub first. After that everything else is tolerable"

"Just wanted to take a moment to say thanks. We received the hot tub without any problems and in perfect shape. It continued its journey on a boat trailer then across 2 km of water and to its final location with no problem. Had it filled and heated before dark. Love how easy it heats and maintains heat. It blends well with its surroundings, I love how it looks on our shoreline. Thanks again!"

Thank you Josh and the rest of the team!"
Dave Bishop, Yosemite
We are very happy with the tub. It heats quickly and is very efficient using much less firewood than I had ever thought.
Ryan Tatar, Joshua Tree
"The tub has been a total game changer for me...Not sure if I would've made it through the pandemic without that thing calming the nerves. Thanks to you guys for doing cool stuff at a price I could actually afford. My son has loved it and it made him want to come up here more often."

Russell Grange
AMAZING LIFE UPGRADE! Wow, I’m so in love with my alumitub. We did a ton of research on wood-burning cedar hot tubs and, due to our ranch property being off-grid and in a high elevation region with extreme weather (freezing temperatures year-round), we were concerned about freezing/thawing and all the maintenance that a full cedar tub requires. Then we found alumitubs and knew we had found the perfect solution. Josh was great to work with and even helped us make some cool customizations. The tub was fun and simple to assemble. And once it was assembled…WOW. What a work of art and a remarkable upgrade to our property and ranch life. We fell in love with every part of the process: harvesting and chopping the wood, building and stoking the fire, and then soaking under the Milky Way every night. Perfection! Rather than have to retreat to the cabin when the cold temperatures set in after dark, now we can hang out for hours into the night. FYI the creek water we used to fill the tub was 52 degrees and it took about 5-6 hours to heat the tub to 104 degrees. But then the tub only lost about 5-6 degrees overnight in freezing temperatures, so it was much faster to heat the next day. And if we stoked the fire before going to bed, we were able to wake up to a tub that hadn’t lost any heat at all and have a morning soak. Amazing! We look forward to decades ahead of hot tub sitting and taking time to enjoy the finest parts of life. Thanks AlumiTub!
Sue Fairburn
We ordered a hot tub from this amazing BC/Local company about midway through the pandemic. Aware that they can only make so many at a time, and maintain their standards of construction and materials, we were happy to wait. Josh kept us up to date on timing and alerted us when it was ready, and delivery details. We picked-it up (an option for locals) and immediately could see the quality and attention that went into our tub. Assembly and site-setup was easy and was a family project. We weren't sure exactly where to put it (and may wish to move it) so we set it up on a thick bed of wood chips (which also offer more insulation). 6 months on, we continue to enjoy it and to appreciate the cedar scent that comes with each use. It takes a bit of practice to start and tend the fire to heat the water, but practice is part of all good things. We appreciate the ease of cleaning (naturally) and knowing the water we use is part of the cycle of water where we live (so we don't use any chemicals and are exploring how to also use it on our garden). These tubs are made with care and that comes across in the way Alumitubs works and their customer service. Josh goes out of his way to listen and to help. Be patient - with a young family and a busy business - there's a lot for Alumitubs to balance, but they do it well. Thanks Josh & Alumitubs.

I ordered an AlumiTub for my backyard in Northern Virginia for a few reasons. I have a large number of trees for firewood, I'm on well water, & I didn't want to run a 240v circuit anywhere for power.
The ordering experience was effortless. It took about five months from ordering to the arrival of my hot tub at a local freight depot. It arrived in one of the windows when there were no insane tariffs on Canadian products, so I didn't have to pay any additional fees, thank goodness.
I managed to load the palletized tub onto a flatbed trailer, bring it home, unpack it, and quickly set it up. The AlumiTub gang, especially Josh and Amanda, has been fantastic, answering all kinds of questions about how to prepare, set up, and maintain my tub.
When people come over to visit, they are amazed by my AlumiTub. I love a relaxing evening soak with the smell of crackling firewood in the air. Would order again if given the choice!

We purchased the Small Electric Cedar Hot Tub from Alumitubs and could not be happier! Until now, I was not a hot tub person. I don’t care for the aesthetics of the typical fiberglass tub, cannot stand the jets (noisy, hard to clean), and detest how heavy they are and hard to get rid of if need be. Because my wife really wanted a soaking tub, I dutifully began to research our options and was fortuitous enough to stumble across Alumitubs. The more I researched, the more enthusiastic I became. What really cemented my decision to order was the excellent communication from both Amanda (logistics coordinator/customer service rep), and Josh (the owner). They thoroughly answered all my questions, even the dumb ones, and continued a truly remarkable level of responsiveness throughout the entire process: from ordering, keeping me informed about production, the shipping process, installation tips, to maintaining the water and tub. The antithesis of everything I hate about ordinary hot tubs, Alumitubs are easy to maneuver and install, quiet, and absolutely gorgeous! They are elegantly simple which I mean as the highest compliment. Because they are so well built, so easy to set up, and so nice looking, one can tell that countless hours must have gone in to designing and refining such an excellent product. As an added bonus, they are made in beautiful B.C., Canada. If we ever move and need to get another soaking tub, I will not hesitate to purchase another Alumitub.

"From the order process to the cross-country delivery and installation, our hot tub purchase was easy and seamless. The team at AlumiTubs kept us up-to-date on the progress of our order build, accommodated our tweaks to the hot tub, and followed up with us post installation. We could not have asked for a better product from a better company! Highly recommend!!! We've had our AlumiTub (large size hot tub) for almost 2 months and we are absolutely in love. The hot tub comes to temperature in a few hours with a few small arm loads of wood, and is great at retaining heat with just an extra log or two for days. Since installing the hot tub, maintenance and cleaning has been stress free. We drain the water (using it around the garden), wipe down the hot tub, then refill. Easy. We opted for the large size hot tub - enough room when friends and family visit, and luxuriously spacious when taking a solo soak. We installed our hot tub ourselves on a concrete pad, over top of rigid insulation foam board that is concealed with the optional metal band. The finished product is rustic yet refined and fits perfectly into our Southwestern Ontario rural backyard retreat. Thank you AlumiTubs!"
Peter Olson
"My wife and I have thoroughly enjoyed our Alumitub. I have a few points I love about it and some considerations for set up. First, Josh has been very supportive and answering my questions about set up. The video is great, but we wanted to add an EZPad beneath it. Josh has been very helpful with considerations for iintegrating it. Second, we really appreciate that our hot tub needs no electricity. This has allowed us to place it away from our house and saved us the trouble with integrating wiring. Additionally, the hot tub is much more quiet than one we owned at a different house. No loud water jets to wake you up in the night or have to talk over. We also like the fact that if needed, we can relocate our hot tub. It would be challenging, but at least it is something two people can do together. Third, we just fell a bunch of diseased trees on our property. I appreciate the fact that those trees will go to good use and lower our power/gas bill for our home. Lastly it is a nice design. Comfortable and easy to clean. For set up and use I have some additional points. The EZPad is about 2 inches thick. So we added a PVC extension to the drain to connect to the optional drain setup. A 1” PVC coupler was also required. We have a solar powered portable light system that surrounds our tub. Perfect for the evening. I found that filling the hot tub take about 90 minutes. With a moderate fire, it takes about 4 hours to heat up from 55 degrees to 100 degrees. Also, leave room in the hot tub to add cold water if you over heat it. In our environment, I have found the hot tub will lose about 1 degree of heat per hour if it is fully covered up. About an hour before I go to bed, I make a small fire in the hot tub. By morning, it is normally around a perfect temperature for use. I highly recommend Alumitub"
