I have not got one but have a few customers that do.
im still offering them a free window clean for a dip but there not having any of it you can buy them for about 2/2.5k but I bet it cost 500 a year in electric as they need to run constantly |

We fell in love with them last year too but not the environment bashing electric ones. I'm talking wood powered
Wooden tub part from two people upwards and a stainless steel steam engine type boiler. 7 logs is all it takes and about half an hour warm up time. I making one from a kit next month. New ones cost about £1000 Costs a few pence to run, unless you have your own trees like me You just can't beat a dip under a clear night sky and a bottle of vino collapso |

I can't work out how to do Linky from my phone but will do it later for you. Mine's using a back boiler log burner and a huge whisky barrel I'm having made.
