The AlumiTub
Tough and timeless, the AlumiTub is built to outperform traditional cedar hot tubs. Bringing its form in harmony with the functions off-grid cabin owners need, it stands in a class of its own. A 100% Canadian made wood fired hot tub, precision-built and expertly crafted to stand the test of time, it offers a chance to immerse ourselves in the good company of the great outdoors. A place to gather with loved ones, siblings, cousins, friends, neighbors and all. A time to do nothing other than find contentment as we log off for the weekend and put another one on the fire.
For gathering with good company. Whether it be your own or with the whole family, AlumiTubs come in 3 sizes. A solo retreat, a time to connect with a significant other, or a place to gather any and all.
Deep enough to keep even the tallest member of your party plenty warm (no cold shoulders here), not so deep that your smaller ones can’t enjoy a seat at the table.

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 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 flexibility.

Made to become a family heirloom

Canada's Wood Burning Hot Tub Company Since 2001
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.

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.

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!
