How does a hot tub work?
Each and every hot tub is heated by a hot tub stove/heater. The heating method varies depending on the stove/heater installed. You can choose from a hot tub with an external, internal or integrated wood stove or an electrically heated hot tub.
How an external hot tub stove works
The external wood stove is heated by burning wood. The wood stove is double-walled. In the double wall there is an inlet hose (below) and an outlet hose (above), through which the water from the hot tub flows automatically. As heat rises (capillary action), the heated water will circulate towards the rest of the water in the hot tub. Hence the hot tub with external heater is heated completely naturally without a pump. The stove being outside the tub means extra space in the tub.
- Extra space in the hot tub
- Enjoy the hot tub with more people at the same time

How an internal hot tub stove works
A hot tub with an internal wood stove basically works the same way as a hot tub with an external wood stove, except for the stove being in the tub behind a protective panel. This provides direct contact between stove and water.
The internal stove's filler opening is situated on the top. It always extends a few centimetres above the water surface so that water can never flow into it.
- Authentic look
- Installation options

How an integrated hot tub stove works
Do you like the idea of an internal stove but don’t want to sacrifice any space? Then we'd recommend the Skargards Regal. This luxury hot tub features an integrated stove.
An integrated stove is basically an internal stove operated in the same way as an external one.
- There's no need to sacrifice space outside the tub
- Extra space inside the tub
- Combining the look of an internal stove and the convenience of an external stove

How an electric hot tub heater works
An electric hot tub is easy to heat up using the static control panel, which comprises an LED display and 4 buttons. The heating elements in the tub heat the water up to the desired temperature swiftly and efficiently. Our range encompasses the optimally insulated electric massage baths from the Nordic brand. Innovative measures make these hot tubs suitable even for regions where snow falls and temperatures drop below zero. On at the touch of a button (it's that simple!)
