HOW TO LIGHT THE HOT TUB

We are so happy to offer you this wonderful experience of enjoying the relaxing sounds of the woodland while you bathe in luxurious warm water. 

We ask that you do not add any chemicals to the water or soaps 

that could harm the environment.

STEP BY STEP:

1. Plan ahead. The hot tub will take 2 hours to heat up.
   This will stop you wasting wood, time and energy - as well as prevent the disaster of you being out for dinner when it's ready.
2. Carefully select your chosen kindling, making sure it's in smallish logs that will fit, also ensuring you have plenty to hand and don't run out mid warm up.
3. Clean out the burner if it's not already done., you can use a brush or small shovel for this.
4. Place firelighters and small soft wood pieces in a small pyramid in the centre of the burner, using a match to carefully light the firelighter.
5. Add small pieces of wood at a controlled pace., keeping a pyramid structure that allows air to the fire's centre (it needs oxygen to keep burning).
   Let the heat build-up enough for larger logs.
6. Now add slightly larger logs on the fire., making sure you close the burner door after placing the wood on the flames. Make sure the vents on the door are open (it still needs that oxygen).
7. Keep checking the fire every 5-10 minutes, adding logs to keep the fire blazing.
8. During the heat process, take the top of the hot tub off and use the provided paddle to stir the water, as hot water rises to the top.
9. Once the water reaches 35-37 degrees, it is ready to get in
   Place a log on the fire so it heats up a little more while you enjoy the relaxing tub. You don't want the fire to die., but you also don't want the water to get too hot, so use your judgement to keep it warm.
10. Switch your phone to silent, tentatively dip a few toes in, and take the plunge., You may well not even notice it get dark
