How much area do I need?About 2m x 2m of flat space for our most popular 4-6 person tub
-
Is it safe to have it on my deck?We're not sure! You'll need to check with your deck specifications or with a structural engineer. If in doubt we'd recommend putting it on the ground.
-
How much does it weigh?About 800-900kg when it's filled with water before you add people.
-
Does it need power?Yes, it does. We run a long cable out a window from your house, garage or shed, The cable is outdoor rated with double RCA breakers to keep you safe. Electricity usage is approx: 2.0kw/hr when heating or 0.8kw/hr when filtering (once it reaches desired temperature). The total cost of power is only $15-25 for the weekend.
-
How much water does it need?The standard 4-6 person hot tub holds about 780 litres, we fill this from your garden hose. The cost of water is approximately $3 using Watercare's standard water and wastewater rates.
-
Does it meet the Auckland Council Pool and Fencing Requirements?Yes, it does! Your safety is one of our top priorities. Foxy Hot Tubs follow the Auckland Council requirements and we have engaged with the Building Performance team to check our hot tubs are safe.​ ​We need your help, while we're not around, by supervising children at all times and by putting on the lid and securing the easy to use (childproof) clasps when not in use.
-
How fast does it heat?The temperature increases 1-2 degrees an hour, so where possible we try to drop it off early on the day of booking so it's up to temperature in time for your big night. If you're ok with it we can also run a hose from your hot tap which will dramatically increase the starting temperature and the amount of time it takes to reach the desired temperature.
-
How hot does it get?It heats to a toasty and safe 40°C (104°F). You can set the temperature at whatever suits you.. perfect if you have a special temperature in mind, for pregnancy, sports recovery or therapy.
-
How long does it take to set up or take down?About an hour, we ask you to allow an hour as each property is unique and we like to do things properly which can take a little longer :)
