5′ x 4′ Classic Pak™ Soaking Hot Tub Package
Our 5' diameter x 4' high cedar (43" interior depth) hot tub provides an extra foot of depth over the 5x3. If you are exceptionally tall, simply like deep tubs or are tight on space, but want to accommodate 4 to 5 tubbers, this could be a good choice over the 5x3. It comes with 5 benches, each 31” long. The supports provide three staggered heights to accommodate varying sizes and bathing preferences. The highest bench provides both a cooling off position and provides ease of access into and out of the tub.
The 5x4 comes with 5 benches, each 31” long. Because of the extra depth, it does allow for the seating of 5 people with more comfort than a 5x3. Horizontal room for legs and knees, however, is still a little short. Unless space is limited and/or there is a strong preference for the deeper water depth, the 6x3 provides considerably more space at about the same cost and same amount of water to heat.
Heat rates are generally only of concern when heating up a fresh tub of water. A 5.5kW heater will heat this tub about 5˚/hour in average conditions, but will have to work hard in really cold temperatures as the rate of heat loss increases. A 10kW electric heater will heat this tub about 9˚/hour. A 125,000 BTU gas heater will heat it about 28˚/hour.
The Classic Pak™ Control System
The Classic Pak™ hot tub is controlled by the simple but rugged Intermatic 24/7 mechanical timer. It has been used on pools and hot tubs for decades. You set the timer to control when the pump will come on at low speed. That governs both the filtration and heating for whichever heating option you choose.
Regardless of the control system used, all heaters will only turn on when water flow is detected. Because heating occurs only when the timer turns on the pump, you will need to set the timer cycle so it comes on prior to the time you typically use it.
The Classic Pak™ comes standard with freeze protection. You can set the temperature dial to specify the ambient temperature at which you want the pump to come on to prevent freezing in the pipes. Jets are controlled by a simple air switch which is connected the timer by an air hose. Press the button on the air switch to turn jets on and off.
You have a choice of heating options, 5kW or 10kW electric heat, 125,000 BTU gas (LP or NG) heat. And, now you can get the most energy efficient heat pump out there, the Balboa Clim8zone 6.3kW heat pump. It will heat the hot tub water with an ambient air temperature as low as -4F.
The Clim8zone is typically paired with either a 5.5kW or 11kW heater™. It can be sold with a Classic Pak™ that has no auxiliary heating capacity, but this should only be used in very mild climates. Like all heat pumps, the heating power of the Clim8zone declines the colder the ambient temperature
Pre-Assembled Equipment Skid
All Classic Pak™ equipment skids come pre-assembled ready for your electrician to connect. Also included are a locking vinyl wrapped insulating foam cover, 4 jets, 2 code compliant suction fittings, and all flex hose and plumbing parts needed to locate the skid up to 20' away from the hot tub.

Classic, Beautiful, All-Wood Hot Tub
All our wood hot tubs are made in the USA of hand selected Western Red Cedar that exceeds the industry's toughest standards. We start with A and Better, clear, all heart Western Red Cedar. Even that standard allows for imperfections that we cull out when selecting our staves and bottom boards. The staves, like the bottom boards, are precision-milled to +0.005” to ensure a perfect fit. You're guaranteed long-lasting quality, strength, performance, and beauty.
Vertical Grain Upgrade;
The quality and performance of our hot tubs never varies, BUT wood is a natural product and there can be some aesthetic variations even within the premium grade we use. Our typical tub is about two-thirds, or more, vertical grain boards. But, if you choose our Premium Vertical Grain Upgrade, we will hand-inspect and hand-select every single piece of wood that goes into your hot tub to meet that standard and get as close to a perfect grain as Mother Nature allows.
Premium Stainless Steel Bands
We offer stainless steel bands and connectors on all of our hot tubs. Stainless bands, in addition to being more attractive than traditional black iron hoops offer many advantages. When assembling the tub and tightening the bands, the bands draw much more evenly against the staves all around the tub than do rigid iron or even stainless hoops, making assembly easier.
Stainless offers a zero-maintenance advantage, too. Real wood "moves" and every 6 or 7 years your tub will need a “tune up” (reseating the staves and tightening the bands). Stainless won’t rust or corrode so the nuts and threads remain clean, rust-free, and easily adjustable.
The bands are made from 316 stainless steel. The 316 alloy provides the maximum corrosion protection against, water, chemicals and salt.
