Ever wish you had a hot tub when you’re camping? Me, too, and now it’s entirely possible with the new Joolca HOTTUB and their HOTTAP water heater.
Made like an inflatable paddle board, the sturdy PVC material inflates into shape and is strong enough to stand on the edges. The included pump gets it into shape in a few minutes, and then it fills up and heats to a comfortable temp in about two hours.
Joolca’s HOTTAP hooks up directly to the in and out spouts, letting it recirculate water through the heater to heat it quickly and then keep it warm. Use its built-in pump to fill the tub from any local freshwater source (like a clean lake or stream) and you don’t even need to worry about having a hose handy.
Joolca says the HOTTAP can heat the water to 113ºF, but most experts (and, probably, doctors) suggest limiting it to 104ºF. The HOTTAP runs on a 15lb propane tank that’ll heat water for about 15 hours, so there’s plenty left in the tank for showers and other use after filling and heating the Hot Tub.
The inflated walls are basically air insulation, and they say it can stay warm for days if you keep the insulated cover on it. Child-proof clips help keep the lid safely in place when you need to leave the hot tub unattended.
The floor has a double layer with 10mm of foam padding and insulation. An included patch kit helps you make field repairs, too.
Prefer the cold? It works great as an ice bath at home, too. Or a hot tub at home. Or just something a little more sturdy than a kiddie pool for chillin’ on the deck. However you use it, there’s a drain port for emptying it when you’re done.
MSRP is $579 for the inflatable HOTTUB, and you can get 20% off accessories like the HotTap recirculating heater that you’ll need to make it hot. That’s normally $449, but it’s $359.20 when you bundle.
