Default Building a hot tub in the garden - thoughts and advice please

I'd really like to have a hot tub sunk into the deck.


One of the main requirements will be to insulate the tub


Seems like an ideal project for expanding PU foam.

My brother's fibreglass tub was delivered fully plumbed and open framed
which showed 200mm or so sprayed on the outside. It appeared to be the last
job they did as it was covering the pipework, lights, and pump brackets in
many places. Cover panels are fitted on site after the hook up and mounting
has been completed, maintenance is via these panels.

The spec meant the deck had to be lowered in that area so the tub could be
ground supported, the bonus was it gave it more privacy and cosiness to the
installation.
