Cedar Hot Tub Assembly
Instructions
Introduction:
Thank you for selecting a Dundalk LeisureCraft Tub! Your
tub will provide many years of soaking enjoyment.
Assembly will be easier if you follow the correct sequence
of steps and use the proper tools.
Please take the time
to read the instructions completely and carefully before
starting the assembly process.
How wooden tubs hold water:
The tub is assembled dry.
Because dry wood will swell a significant amount when
saturated with water, all of the joints compress tightly,
allowing the tub to hold water.
Special note:
It is important to keep the tub floor and side
staves stored in a dry place until assembly time. If the tub
gets wet prior to assembly, the wood may swell to a larger
size making assembly much more difficult and slow the
sealing of the tub.
Section 1: Packing List
Locate the packing list from the outside of the shipping
crate to identify and confirm that all items are included. A
copy of the packing list is inside the packaging. See Figure
1.1 to help identify the major parts.

Section 2: Tools and Supplies Needed
A few basic tools and items are needed to complete the
assembly of your new tub. Gather what you will need
before you start.
Figure 2.1 tools required
A large rubber mallet
Small tape measure
Screw gun or cordless drill
#2 Philips bit for screw gun or cordless drill
Carpenters’ level (2’ or longer)
15/16” open end, socket, or crescent wrench
Vise Grip pliers
Caulking gun or squeeze tube of clear silicone
Medium sized pipe wrench
Section 3: Site Preparation
Before assembling your tub, prepare a suitable spot for it.
Hot tubs will weigh from 1500 to 8000 lbs when full of
water - so a stable foundation is essential. You must
provide for good drainage and a solid foundation.
Outdoor installation:
Good drainage is vital so that water
from splashing, overflow, cleaning and draining operations
can be carried away from the site.
