I would not worry too much about its construction, you most likely not use it too often. In the Phoenix/Scottsdale area there are hundrds of these tubs made out of concrete and I think just about every one of them is being used as a planter. I do know that few, if any, are used as a bathtub, since they are cold and uncomfortable. In addition, since they have a lot of mass, the hot water is cooled almost as soon as it enters the tub. : Hi, : We are expanding into our basement and will be putting in a new bathroom. We would like to construct the tub out of concrete. Can we install our own jet system ? What parts will we need? where can we get the parts? : Any suggestions on sealing the interior of the tub? : Thanks for answering my questions. : Lee Heath
