Frequently Asked Questions

hold?
A. 6' x 3' tub holds 450 gallons,

Q. How do you control the temperature?
A. Start out with a roaring fire
until you get close to temperature, say 95F, then reduce the
size of the fire until it reaches 102 F - 106F. When you get
to tub temperature keep a small fire going. The fire can also
be slowed down by adjusting the draft. It is better to control
temperature by fire size than by closing the damper because a
build of up creosote can result. If you go over temperature add
cold water.

heat up?

40F to tub temperature 105F. This is four time as fast as a conventional
