Teach you to make your very own hot tub. We’ve scoured the vast depths of the internet and collected the very best tutorials for building your very own hot tub. Time Machine not included. Building a cedar hot tub from scratch is definitely a big project, but if you’re fairly skilled at woodworking (like you should be), it can make for a great project.
In addition to the wood itself, you will need a number of items from your local pool supply store. Great now that you’ve got that, you’re on your way. Instructions to building your DIY hot tub: Step 1: Find a good spot for your hot tub. You want it on level ground capable of supporting the entire weight of the tub (100 to 150 pounds per square foot). A solid concrete porch is usually best. Make sure the spot is sheltered from the wind and elements as well; placing it close to the house will help ensure this. Step 2: Cut lengths of cedar wood or lumber to fit your hot tub. Dimensions will vary depending upon the size of your hot tub. You can use the following lengths as guidelines to construct a 6-foot diameter tub (smaller or larger tubs will have different dimensions): 1 tub bottom, 6 feet in diameter 1 circular bench section, 6 feet in diameter, 12 to 18 inches long 2×4 bench supports, 20/5 inches tall 3 chine joists to support the tub, 4 to 6 inches high.
Two of the joists should measure about 3.5 feet long and the third should measure about 6 feet long. 24 to 30 fitted staves, each 4 feet high. There should be enough to cover the entire circumference of the tub evenly. Step 3: Punch holes in the tub bottom fitted to the size of the tub’s suction fittings with a hole saw. They should be no further than 5 inches from the edge of the bottom, where they can be reached easily. Step 4: Use the hole saw to punch holes in the fitted staves where you will place your jets. You want two rows placed evenly around the circumference of the tub: the top row should fit the high-powered jets and the lower row should fit the low-powered jets. Low speed jets typically number about one half the number of high speed jets (6 to 8 is typical). Low speed jets should be between 12 to 18 inches from the bottom of the staves, while high speed jets should be 12 to 18 inches above them. Step 5: Cut a final hole in a single stave to fit your skimmer.
It will be placed close to the suction fitting holes. Step 6: Place the chine joists on the ground in support of your hot tub and secure them to the concrete with bolts. The smaller joints should be placed on either end of the measured area, while the large joist needs to be placed down the dead center. Step 7: Place the tub bottom on top of the joists and secure it into place with bolts or nails. Make sure that the bolts or nails are pounded completely into the joists, so that no part of them sticks up. Step 8: Fit the suction fittings into the holes you have cut for them, and secure them to the bottom of the tub with screws and a screwdriver. Beware of over-tightening: the seal on the screws will become tighter as the wood begins to swell. Step 9: Ring the staves around the tub bottom, interlocking them with both the bottom and each other. Then slide a pair of tub bands over them–one about 20 inches from the top of the tub and one about 20 inches from the bottom–and tighten them until they are firm.
Step 10: Hammer 6 to 8 nails just above the top tub band, and 6 to 8 nails just below it. Repeat the process with the lower tub band, making sure the nails are spaced evenly around the tub. They will hold the rings in place and keep the assembly from slipping. Step 11: Seal every seam in the tub with epoxy sealant to make it watertight. Keep the sealant warm by covering it if necessary and allow it to dry for at least 24 hours. Step 12: Fit the 2×4 bench supporters in a ring around the interior of the tub, equidistant from each other, and bolt them to the staves using screws. Make sure they don’t cover any of the holes you have punched. Step 13: Slide the bench into the interior of the tub and bolt or nail it securely to the bench supporters. Make sure the bolts or nails are completely flush with the top of the wood, so they don’t snag anyone who sits on them. Step 14: Fit the tub skimmer into its hole and screw it into place with a screwdriver. Apply waterproof sealant around the edges so it doesn’t leak any water.
Step 15:Connect lengths of PVC pipe to the suction fittings and the skimmer. Run them to a single larger PVC pipe (2 inches is typical) and mate them using t-fittings. Place PVC sealant on the connections to make them watertight. Step 16: Fit the hot tub jets into position in the holes you have punches for them. Use screws or bolts to secure them to the sides of the tubs, and apply sealant to the edges to maintain the tub’s integrity. Step 17: Connect a PVC pipe to a pair of t-lengths and then connect the t-lengths to two of your jets. Repeat the process around the entire circumference of the tub until all of the jets are connected. There should be two rings of PVC pipes: one of the high-speed jets and one for the low-speed jets. Step 18: Attach the pipeline of the low-speed jets to a 3/4 hp water pump. Then connect the pumplines and the skimmer to the same pump. It should have housings that allow you to fit both of them into place. If it only has one housing, you can fit the jet pipe to the main pipe with a t-fitting, then run the main pipe into the pump.
