🔥 Heating system (important part)
This is not a wood-fired tub — it uses a Balboa electric spa pack system, which typically includes:
- Digital controller (temperature + filtration cycles)
- Built-in safety sensors (flow, temp, pressure)
- Circulation pump for heat distribution
- Optional WiFi control upgrade
What it means in practice:
- Heats from cold → usable temp in 6–12 hours
- Maintains 38–40°C (100–104°F) easily once insulated
- Runs like a traditional hot tub system, just inside a cedar shell
