air and water jets for ofuro


Q #53	We are an architectural firm in New York City and currently working on a project for a client in Connecticut. The client likes your hinoki tubs. Are these tubs only available as soaking tubs, or is it possible to build them with air or water jets?
A #53	Thank you for your interest in our hinoki products. The tubs are made in japan using the traditional Edo carpentry technique. They can be converted to jacuzzis but we cannot supply this equipment from here. It is better and cheaper to do it on site (all the best spa equipment is american, such as Pentair, Waterways, Hayward, Jandy etc.) In this way there is no problem for maintenance/replacement parts. Please try to contact a local pool/spa equipment supplier and ask for their advice. Basically our tubs are made in solid wood and is very easy to open holes anywhere is needed to apply the jets. We are looking forward to working with you and remain at your disposal for any question.
