Pools
Our corrugated RainQueen pools provide an easy, aesthetic and incredibly practical alternative to enjoying summer.
There are two different options to consider when trying to decide which Farm-Style RainQueen Pool will best suit you - the 'Ready to Swim' option or the 'Assembled on site' option. Both of these options can withstand the use of chlorine.

Our RainQueen Pools – ready to swim – are delivered as a complete unit with a light blue vinyl liner. They are the quickest and easiest rustic swimming pool solution.

What is the difference between a Hot Tub and a Pool?
A Hot Tub is normally a maximum of 2.4m in diameter and has a maximum height of 0.8m with a sheet metal bottom.
Our larger RainQueen pools have a liner and do not have a steel bottom. Pools with a diameter of less than 2.4m can also have a sheet metal bottom attached and are then known as our ‘ready to swim’ instant pool.
Our Liner Pools cannot be converted into Hot Tubs with the addition of a wood fired stove.
POINTS TO CONSIDER
- Pool chemicals can corrode galvanized steel (light blue vinyl liner is the only option available for this method of cleaning).
- The corrugated pool wall is not strong enough to secure a ladder to (we suggest an aluminium fold up ladder with rubber mat on top of liner).
- A kreepy krawly will not work on the corrugated wall (scrub with brush and then vacuum the floor to clean).
- We can supply a shade cloth pool cover.
MORE INFORMATION ON OUR LINERS

Hot Tubs
Our RainQueen Hot Tubs have grown in popularity over the last couple of years and are fast becoming a ‘must-have’ for any holiday getaway destination. Our RainQueen Hot Tubs are a quick and affordable option that are a wonderful and rustic solution to a very sophisticated pass time.
DISCLAIMER: Our tubs are NOT suitable for all applications. In some circumstances the life of the tub can be considerably reduced by corrosion (rust).
Tub Specifications: small, Medium or Large
Small (Honeymoon Hot Tub): 1.5m diameter / 0.7m high (comfortably fits 2 people)
Medium Tub: 2m diameter / 0.8m high (comfortably fits 2-4 people)
Large Tub: 2.4m diameter / 0.8m high (comfortably fits 4-6 people)
Each tub comes with 1 x 40mm outlet approximately 130mm from the base of the tub used to drain the water.
DISCLAIMER: our tubs are NOT suitable for all applications.
Our corrugated steel tubs are left in their raw galvanised corrugated steel form and can withstand the heat from either a stainless steel or aluminum wood fired stove.
Our standard tubs are NOT lined and are therefore NOT suitable for the use of pool chemicals / water not of drinking quality.
Our RainQueen Hot Tubs are sold as two separate items - the corrugated tub and the wood fired stove - that are then installed as a unit on site.
Wood Fired Stove Specifications: small, Medium or Large
The wood fired stove (aluminium or stainless steel) comes with a 1.5m chimney and an ash scoop.
ABOUT THE STOVES:
The wood fired stove, aluminium or stainless steel, needs to be bolted into the base of the corrugated steel tub and secured with bolts into the concrete slab below.
The fire is lit in the bottom of the stove using firelighters and kindling. Thereafter the temperature is controlled by the amount of wood fed into the stove and the amount of air you allow into the stove. The water needs to be stirred in order to help the heating process. This process should take between 4-6 hours.

IMPORTANT:
- Our tubs need to be placed on a previously prepared concrete base (we do not provide this service).
- The water, when dirty, will need to be emptied and the tub refilled. This water can be used to water the garden.
Bath Tubs
Our RainQueen Bath Tubs are a stunning blend of ‘old Karoo farm house’ and a more modern design.
Made to be an outdoor bath and enjoyed beneath a vast African sky.
Our RainQueen Baths have grown in popularity and we have found that a further two applications have become
more and more common. We now supply three different sizes: our standard bath tub (used for normal outdoor bath applications); our ICE BATH (used in cold water treatment) and a Baptism bath (used in baptism ceromonies).
Bath tub details & Specifications:
- They are made from galvanised corrugated steel with a flat sheet metal base.
- They are left in the raw galvanised corrugated steel form (unpainted).
Please note that they are not suitable for the use of pool chemicals. - Our bath tubs need to be placed on a concrete slab (or a smooth, level surface).
