Hot Tub Barn Ashford

Damian Durio

Branch Manager

How long have you worked at Hot Tub Barn?

I opened the showroom at Dobbies in Ashford in the summer of 2017.

What is your favourite part of the job?

Helping customers find their perfect hot tub or swim spa and sharing water care tips with them over the years... whilst hearing their news and putting the world to rights!

What is your favourite product at Hot Tub Barn and why?

The Infinity 560 or larger 760, offer a classic single-lounger design which suits families and couples alike; the lighting and music are great and I particularly like the shoulder and neck massage jets. For the keen swimmers, I think our Atlantis range offers the best space and counter-current resistance for all levels of training.

What advice do you have for someone looking to purchase a hot tub or swim spa for their home?

Definitely try before you buy. Everyone is different, so when you sit in a tub, even if it's dry, you'll get a much better sense of which size and layout you prefer. Swim testing the pools is also the only sure way to test the strength of jets. I encourage everyone get in!

What is your favourite thing to do when you’re not at work?

Like most people, my house is an ongoing project, so I'm either in the garden landscaping, fencing or tending the plants, or in the house painting, tiling and shelving.
