Frequently asked questions
General
Each Fire Bath comes equipped with a convenient 20mm screw plug positioned on the lower side wall, facilitating easy drainage. To drain the water, simply remove the plug and let gravity take care of the rest. Alternatively, you have the option to use an expandable washing machine/dishwasher drain hose, available at stores like Bunnings, to direct the water away from the Bath area and towards your garden or preferred location.
Our 5-foot Fire Bath is designed with plenty of room, making it suitable for one person of virtually any size or height. Even taller users, including people up to 6 feet 5 inches, can comfortably get in, sit back, and enjoy a deep, relaxing hot soak.
It’s also spacious enough for two people, making it a great option if you want to share the experience. Whether you’re using it solo or with someone else, the 5-foot Fire Bath gives you the space, comfort, and confidence to fully relax and enjoy the warmth.
No, we do not recommend leaving your Fire Bath full of water permanently.
Fire Baths do not have a filtration or sanitising system like a spa or swimming pool. Because the water is not continuously circulating or being treated, it can become stagnant and unhygienic if left sitting for too long.
Most customers will fill their Fire Bath for a weekend soak, keep it covered between uses, and then drain it after their final session.
We recommend draining your Fire Bath within 48 hours of filling it. Leaving static water in the tub for longer than this may cause it to react with the galvanised coating.
Please be careful when adding pool chemicals or water treatment products, as some cleaners may negatively affect the galvanised coating inside the tub. If you are unsure, check with your local pool supplies retailer before use.
You'll require approximately 0.3-0.4 cubic meters of firewood to heat the bath to 38 degrees Celsius. It takes about 1.5 hours for a 4-Foot Bath and 2 hours for our 5-Foot Bath to reach this temperature. Once you've hit the desired heat, cease adding wood—the Bath will maintain this temperature thanks to the smoldering embers, ensuring a stable warmth.
Imagine your spa as a big soup pot and the coil as a magical noodle straw inside it! When the noodle straw (coil) hangs out near something hot like a campfire (heat source), it slurps up the warmth and gets toasty. Just like how steam rises from a hot soup, the warm water in the coil goes "wee, I'm lighter!" and zooms up through the noodle straw. This leaves space for the cooler spa water to dash into the warm noodle straw, getting cozy and hot on its own. It's like a never-ending dance party where warm water goes up, cool water hops in, gets hot, and joins the rising warm-water disco! No need for a pump—the dance keeps going as long as there's heat to keep the noodle straw warm and the party poppin'!
