YOKU aims to provide the best quality product to complete your space. The timber surfaces are completely sealed, protecting them from water damage or scratches. It is strongly recommended that cleaning and soap products are made from natural ingredients, and that chemical or abrasive cleaning products are avoided. This is will help to ensure that the integrity of the product is maintained. For cleaning, soft cloths, such as microfibre, as also recommended. 

Installation for Internal Use

Internal installation of YOKU timber baths is similar to that of installation of other standard baths. We recommend consulting with your plumber, designer, draftsperson or architect to discuss installation.

Baths can be installed on a slab or subfloor. As the bath has been designed with adequate fall to the waste, ensure the bath is installed level.

Installation for External Use

Overall, installing an outdoor bath can be a relatively straightforward process. Outdoor baths often don’t need complex drainage systems, especially if you’ll only be bathing outdoors occasionally.

The surface underneath your bath should be water-resistant, stable and permeable. Baths can be installed on desired outdoor floor (i.e. timber decks or slab, or ground). If installing straight onto the ground, we recommend positioning the bath slightly off the ground to allow for drainage. As the bath has been designed with adequate fall to the waste, ensure the bath is installed level.

The following drainage options are commonly used: direct garden drainage, collection trays that drain into your homes wastewater system, plumbed-in.

We recommend that you consult your plumber or landscape designer for advice on your specific outdoor setup.
