Hire FAQ

Everything you need to know before booking. Please read this before submitting your hire request.

📍 Delivery & Hire Area

❓ Where do you deliver to?
We deliver within 30 miles of KY11 4EG (Dunfermline, Fife). If you’re unsure whether your postcode is within range, just ask us.
❓ What vehicle do you use for delivery?
We use a large van or trailer. You’ll need to ensure there’s adequate access — see the access requirements below for each tub.
❓ Do you offer a Dunfermline discount?
Yes! If your delivery address falls within the City of Dunfermline boundary, you receive £20 off your hire. See the boundary map on each tub’s pricing section, or ask us if you’re unsure whether your postcode qualifies.

🚪 Access Requirements

❓ What access do I need for the tub?
All our tubs are moved on a sack trolley. You’ll need a clear path wide enough for the tub plus the trolley. Minimum clearances:

  • Antigua — 204cm width, 94cm height
  • Quatrospa — 202cm width, 74cm height
  • Barcelona — 178cm width, 74cm height

Steps, narrow gates, raised decking and sloped paths can all cause issues — please measure carefully before booking.

Before confirming your booking, we ask that you send us a short video or series of photos from the kerbside to the siting location via WhatsApp. This is free for you when connected to Wi-Fi, and lets us spot any potential obstacles before delivery day — avoiding any disappointment on either side.

⚡ Electricity & Water

❓ What power supply do I need?
A standard 13 amp outdoor socket, minimum 1.5 metres from the tub. The socket must be weatherproof and RCD-protected. We provide our own RCD unit, but your socket must still comply.

No extension leads. The tub’s own cable is the correct length — do not use extension cables under any circumstances.
❓ How much water does the tub need?
All tubs fill from a standard garden hose. We handle the filling on delivery. You’ll need a working outdoor tap accessible near the siting location.
❓ How long does the tub take to heat up?
Up to 24 hours from cold, depending on starting water temperature and ambient conditions. Our tubs reheat at approximately 1.5–2°C per hour — much faster than inflatable tubs.
❓ What temperature will it reach?
Our tubs are set to a maximum of 40°C, which is the safe limit for hot tub use.

🛁 During Your Hire

❓ Are chemicals included?
Yes — all chemicals for the duration of your hire are included. We provide full spa school instructions on delivery so you know how to maintain the water quality.
❓ Do I need to wear swimwear?
Yes. Swimwear must be worn at all times. This is important for maintaining water quality and hygiene for all users.
❓ Is there a security bond?
Yes — a £100 cash bond is collected on delivery and returned when we collect the tub, provided there is no damage. The bond covers accidental damage only — wilful damage is charged separately.
❓ What if something goes wrong during my hire?
Contact us immediately via phone or WhatsApp. We’ll do our best to assist. Please do not attempt to repair or modify any part of the tub yourself.

📦 End of Hire & Collection

❓ What do I need to do at the end of my hire?
Leave the tub filled with water — do not drain it yourself. We drain and clean the tub on collection. Just ensure the access route is clear for us to remove it.
❓ What if I want to extend my hire?
Contact us as early as possible. Extensions are subject to availability and our schedule. Additional nights are charged at £20 per night.
❓ What happens if there’s damage to the tub?
Minor accidental damage is covered by the £100 bond. If damage exceeds the bond, you’ll be responsible for the additional cost. We assess this at collection. We’re reasonable people — just let us know if something happens during your hire.
