Wood-fired hot tubs
built for your yard
Where people return to themselves — and to each other. Shaped from steel and cedar, built to last.
The range
Design your grounding space
Every line we build is for one place — a quiet haven in your own yard: somewhere to slow down, feel the contrast of hot and cold water, and pass good time with family and friends.

Somewhere to return to.”
The ritual
Heat, cold, and the quiet after
Light the fire and give it an hour. Sink into the heat, break it with cold water, then sit in the steam and the stillness — on your own, or with the people you’d want there.
Why Ember Borea
Proven through real winters
More than 3,000 of our hot tubs, cold plunges and saunas are already in use across four continents — through freezing nights, thaw and years of weather.
Built to last
Heavy-gauge steel, cedar and stainless fittings, made to take sun, rain, snow and hard frost. Year-round outdoors, not a summer on the patio.
Made by us
We design every model and build it on our own line, to a method we developed. Nothing is a rebadged catalogue tub.
Fixable, not disposable
When a part wears — a stove component, a seal — it’s a stocked, replaceable part, not a reason to replace the tub. Every build is backed by a guarantee.
Ready for a business
Also built for guesthouses, lodges, resorts and rental hosts — low upkeep for staff, consistent across a batch, delivered crated.
