Wood burning hot tub
The AlumiTub is formed by a marine grade aluminum foundation as a pre-assembled, lightweight unit that can be rolled off a truck, into a boat, along a dock and into place on any flat surface.
- Its pre-installed precision welded marine grade aluminum firebox is submerged in water for unparalleled heating performance, and is safe to touch under water with protective fencing that keeps bodies from coming into contact with its stainless steel chimney and cap.
- Canadian Western Red cedar seating is planed and pre-installed to perfectly accommodate a solo soaker or the whole family, and rough cut cedar cladding surrounds the exterior of the tub with three stainless steel bands, nuts and bolts securing them in place.
- A drain sits on the wall or base of the tub to accommodate different drainage needs, and flanges allow for external heating system compatibility.
- Waterproof batt insulation provides a third layer of thermal protection for all season use, even in the most extreme winter conditions, along with rigid insulation to place beneath the cedar lid and the base of the hot tub for additional heat performance in very cold weather.
- Multi fuel compatibility for wood fire, propane, gas or electric heating and cooling flexibility.
- The thermometer comes in handy allowing you to check the temperature of the water so you know when it’s time to hop in, or throw another log on the fire
- A wood and aluminum scoop allows for easy removal of ashes from the wood stove.
After placing your deposit, we'll be in touch with shipping details and the option to add these items to your wood burning hot tub toolbox for:

- An aluminum bottom band wraps around the base of the wood fired hot tub, allowing an additional layer of insulation underneath the tub while keeping it concealed beneath the band.

Wood is hard to clean. The AlumiTub isn't

We do the wood fired hot tub differently
Does more
Without limits
A wood burning hot tub, but better
We're changing the way the world hot tubs - aesthetically, functionally, experientially, and sustainably.
Built better
From our shop where we shake the hands that make it, each one is precision built and pressure tested for quality with premium, locally sourced materials. We cheers with friends at our local mill, support our community, and employ real people rather than machinery.
Designed different
AlumiTubs pioneered the original aluminum hot tub in 2001 to outperform traditional cedar hot tubs. Designed for life at the cabin and customizable for residential use, our wood fired hot tub was the first of its kind. Handbuilt with a marine grade aluminum foundation for unparalleled performance, we're often imitated, never duplicated.
Sustainably made
AlumiTubs are made with FSC certified Canadian Western Red Cedar from responsibly managed forests on the west coast of British Columbia. Durable, long lasting, and renewable, our wood is harvested using sustainable forestry practices, grown and milled right here in our backyard.
Time well spent
A place to gather
In a world that's fast, it's rare to find a place where speed isn't glorified. Like the warm comforts of a campfire, heating it is half the fun. With a dose of grit and a deep seated certainty that it's time well spent, your wood burning hot tub will become a favourite passage of time.
A cabin icon
Defining life at the cabin since 2001, The AlumiTub's the most trusted name in wood fired hot tubs. Well loved, it's brought people together at thousands of properties from coast to coast, at faraway islands that can't be found on a map, and every lake country cottage between.
A time to do nothing
Setting out to redefine the way the world hot tubs, we based our mission on a deep love for the outdoors and the belief that if something doesn’t work, fix it. Since then, we've been building wood burning hot tubs that last for generations, keeping the tub hot for days, and having it live on for decades.
Matched by no one
Often imitated, never duplicated. The AlumiTub's stood in a league of its own for two reasons: an unwavering commitment to quality, and a deeply held belief that if there's a job worth doing, it's worth doing well. "Well built" means sustainably, small on purpose, and 100% Canadian made. With 0% chance of leaks, by design.
The original aluminum wood fired hot tub
From the origins of an offgrid cabin on the coast of BC, to properties across the globe.
Defining life at the cabin for decades. Well loved since 2001, there's thousands of our wood burning hot tubs in the wild.
One of our best investments we've ever made! Perfecting the art & science of building the optimal fire and temp of our tub has been a fun & enriching experience. It's given us a greater appreciation for the natural beauty of our property and for hot & cold therapy. We experienced a significant uptick in off-season rentals at our vacation property. All to say, our AlumiTub investment has paid back in spades both personally and financially.
The Brook PEC, Prince Edward County
Much better than our old wooden hot tub. Really good people and product. Easier and cleaner than the wooden one. We get to -30F around here. I put extra insulation on the top. Water will hold its heat for a long time. We bought the hot spring to us and it's been worth every penny. Great way to start your Sunday in Interior Alaska. Get yourself one. Good people and great product.
Alaska
WE LOVE OUR HOT TUB! It has increased airbnb bookings 10 fold! It's a huge hit. This beautiful aluminum tub is located at our Airbnb property @cabin_on_the_river in Narrowsburg, NY in the western Catskills/ upper Delaware valley. The hut tub is just steps to the ten mile river. We fill the hot tub thru a sub pump right from the river.
Catskills
It's currently overlooking the Northumberland Strait. It's very close to being filled with water from the Strait. We are very excited! Thank you for going the extra mile for us. You were calm, courteous and comforting. It's great knowing that there are still great people/companies who genuinely care about their customers!
