Wood-fired hot tub External - Oskar - 6 persons (Round)

Enjoy warm water, the crackling sound of a wood fire, and pure relaxation in your own garden with the Wood-Fired Hot Tub External Oskar – 6 persons. This round hot tub combines the authentic look of a Scandinavian tub with the comfort of a modern, low-maintenance basin.

The major advantage of this version is the external wood stove. The stove is located outside the hot tub, meaning no valuable seating space is lost inside the basin. This leaves plenty of room to comfortably enjoy the warm water with up to 6 people.

With an outer diameter of approximately 201 cm and an inner diameter of about 180 cm, the Oskar is spacious enough for a family or a cozy wellness evening with friends. Authentic wood-fired heating

A wood-fired hot tub offers a completely different experience compared to a traditional electric whirlpool. You build the fire yourself and use its heat to bring the pool water to temperature.

The warm water circulates between the hot tub and the external wood stove. This allows the water to be heated gradually without requiring a heavy electric heater for the main heating.

The exact heating time depends on factors such as the outside temperature, the starting temperature of the water, the volume of water, the quality and moisture content of the firewood, and the use of insulation and a thermal cover. For similar Oskar models, a heating time of approximately 1.5 to 2.5 hours is cited under favorable conditions. 

External wood stove for maximum space

In this version, the wood stove is located next to the hot tub. This offers several advantages.

The most important benefit is the available space in the tub. Because no stove is built into the basin, the interior space remains fully available for the users.

In addition, the stove is easily accessible for adding firewood and for maintenance.

Depending on the chosen version, the external stove can be made of AISI 304 stainless steel. For situations where salt water is used, it is important to specifically choose a suitable version, such as AISI 316, if this option is offered for the model. 

Room for up to 6 people

With an outer diameter of about 201 cm and an inner diameter of approximately 180 cm, this round hot tub offers plenty of space for multiple people.

The round shape ensures that everyone can sit comfortably facing each other. This makes the Oskar suitable for both families and couples who enjoy having extra space or want to enjoy the hot tub together with friends.

The actual comfortable capacity also depends on the height and build of the users.

Low-maintenance acrylic inner basin

The Oskar combines the look of a traditional hot tub with a modern acrylic inner basin.

The smooth surface feels comfortable and is significantly easier to keep clean than the interior of a fully wooden tub. Dirt cannot adhere to a smooth surface as easily, and the basin can be cleaned simply after use.

Furthermore, the seats are integrated into the basin, so you do not need loose wooden benches in the water.

Various configurations possible

An important advantage of the Oskar is that the hot tub can be further upgraded. Depending on the selected configuration, various exterior finishes, acrylic basin colors, and additional wellness features are possible.

For instance, you can expand the traditional wood-fired hot tub with features such as hydromassage, air massage, LED lighting, a filter system, or thermal insulation. 

This allows you to decide for yourself whether you opt for a relatively simple Scandinavian hot tub or want to create a more extensive wellness installation.

Suitable for use in different seasons

A wood-fired hot tub really comes into its own during lower outside temperatures. On a crisp autumn or winter evening, the contrast between the cold outside air and the warm water is especially pleasant.

For regular use, good insulation is important. An insulating cover limits heat loss through the water surface and helps keep the water warm for longer.

Insulation around the basin can also be worth considering if the hot tub is used intensively or throughout a large part of the year.

Sturdy and level surface required

A filled hot tub contains a large volume of water, plus the weight of up to six users. Therefore, always place the Oskar on a completely flat, stable, and sufficiently load-bearing surface.

A suitable concrete foundation or a properly constructed and load-bearing terrace can be used for this. When determining the required space, also keep the external wood stove, smoke exhaust, connections, and sufficient safe workspace around the installation in mind.
