How far should my wood-fired hot tub be from objects?

To keep enjoying your wood-fired Ducktub as safe as possible, it's important to take a good look at where you place the hot tub.

Distance to objects and buildings

It's important to place your wood-fired hot tub at a safe distance from all flammable objects or buildings. A good rule of thumb here is to maintain a minimum distance of 1 to 1.5 meters. This space significantly reduces the risk of fire and also gives you enough space to easily use and maintain the hot tub.

The stovepipe

The position of the stovepipe in relation to nearby objects is also an important point of attention. Make sure that the top of the stovepipe does not come closer than 3 meters from any object in the vicinity. It is possible to extend the heater tube.

If the stove tube is extended, you also create more appetite for the stove. This ensures that the fire stays burning properly and that the water in your hot tub heats up faster. With an extended stove tube, you also immediately reduce the chance of smoke spreading to areas where you don't want it, such as your own home or that of the neighbors.
