"I’ve had a long relationship with wood hot tubs! I installed my first one in 1979, and we still do a handful each year. Back in the 80’s, there was a company called Santa Cruz Hot Tubs that used clear all heart vertical grain redwood to make their tub kits. After they went out of business, I bought my redwood tubs from a company in San Leandro from a company that had been in the redwood tub business of over 100 years. I’ve probably installed 500 or so, and once we made a 15’ diameter swim spa out of redwood for a customer in Carmel, CA.  There is certainly a culture in California that surrounds the wood tub. There are also options for seating  and jetting that you don’t have in a  portable spa. Or…some customers choose to go without jets…a quiet sanctuary to recuperate from your day!"
