Drew, your parents are saints to allow you to do so many projects on their property. I am sure that they are very proud of you. You do excellent work and spare no expense.

Speaking as someone who operated pools for 10 years: To winterize: You want to drain the pipes, add antifreeze, and seal them. Water freezing will expand and crack them. However, DO NOT drain the pool! The change of pressure of filled/not filled over a season will actually crack the concrete of your walls. Water in the earth freezes and expands, and you need the pressure of the water to push back. That's an oversimplified explanation but you get the gist. I'd also recommend getting some sort of cover. Since this is custom, you'll likely have to make something custom fit. A sheet with stretchy loops, then some sturdy poles buried underground with hooks on top. Bury them so the hooks are barely visible and don't disrupt your aesthetic too much when in use. It goes a long way to keeping it clean so there less work getting it ready again for when you open it again. Otherwise leaves and other debris will get in and rot all winter. It is disgusting to clean it. Also, just throw in some chlorine tabs and possibly some algae-cide from time to time. Also, consult with a local pool company. The natural water of an area differs from region to region and you may need additional treatment. (for example where I live, the natural calcium of water is very low and we have to add more to avoid the water eroding it from the concrete. Other areas have too much and crusty calcium deposits start to form) The cover and chemicals will save you a lot of work reopening it. Otherwise the water will get very nasty and you will spend much more time cleaning it when you reopen it. You should still drain, clean, and refill it with fresh water when you reopen it.

There were lots of jobs that only me and a select few others were allowed to tackle, because people are stupid. Common sense is not common. There are a lot of people who don't know water expands when it freezes. And even those that do miss interpret it. There is another high rated comment here that is telling people to drain the pool because water will expand cracking the walls and by draining the pool there won't be enough behind the walls to crack it. Its very wrong, and people following his advice are cutting the lifetime of their pools and hot tubs. And he's claiming more experience than me.

Hey Drew I'm a swimming pool contractor in Florida, as far as how to winterize your Homemade spa you definitely want to drain it. Unless you're going to heat it all winter because you did not waterproof the walls of the spa as you stated water will get behind them and for sure freeze and break the walls and seats and floor. There will also be some difficulties to overcome due to the exposed Pea gravel and voids in the rocks This will allow algae and bacteria to fester With no way to clean it. I know what you're thinking the chlorine will just kill it but that's not exactly true to keep levels within range for use there will be a gradient of sanitary water to water that is stagnant and filled with bacteria. this will cause you to have a constant battle with Staphylococcus cytoplasm and other various bacterial growths. My recommendation is every couple of weeks to bring the Spa to 50 parts per million chlorine to kill any bacteria before use skipping this step will result in hot tub rash hot tub lung and other infections. This project came out beautifully But it was definitely not built to code I don't expect this hot tub to last for more than five to 10 years😃

Thanks for your comment, our thoughts went in the same direction how to keep it clean. These 'beginner mistakes' can waste a lot of money and energy for the builder which is a pity. We are thinking of building a natural pool without use of chlorine etc but in winter time a bird will drown in it, a frog might die in it and rodents make use of it during the year. So easy clean or at least making it possible to clean it for health safety will be priority for us.

Maybe purchasing a jacuzzi heater for when not in use. Maybe I'm overthinking it. In the Midwest we get countless freeze thaw cycles. I have 1,1/2" pvc plumbing around foundation and below. To prevent cracked pvc from freezing I drain %90 of water then add antifreeze in the mix. When winter is over I flush everything out into Four, 5gallon containers for next time.

I can tell you spent a lot of time just planning your shots, executing them, and doing the final editing on them. Then trying to do the actual work on the project around the shots must have consumed a lot of time. The time lapse of the water filling from the perspective of the bench seat was a one-time opportunity you didn't fail to miss, and your slo-mo / real speed transitions at the end were spot on.

The ultrasound mister really seals the deal. I'd love to relax after a work day with a small drink in a corner of artificial nature like this.

Beautiful images, music and great commentary. Not to mention the end product!!! Drew, you are astonishing with the projects you tackle and all the skills and calm demeanour you bring to the table. Watching you in awe from Australia 🇦🇺

Wow! It's beautiful! Looks like a tropical spa resort. Well done! I'm sure your parents were very happy when they arrived home and saw this lovely layout you had surprised them with. 👌🏾

Made it to the end. As for wintering it up, I think it may be easier to drain it fully and cover it with a tent or tarp just to make spring time restart less hassle of fishing out any dropped foliage. Although, if you keep a low fire going in the heater. Stretch a large-ish canopy or frame wall tent over it so you could have a middle of Canadian winter personal hot spring to relax in while there's a foot or more of snow on the ground. If you're thinking about doing that in particular, you might want to take up some of the mulch and dirt to line with landscape felt then cover with a good five inches of river gravel to be the dressing and drying off area. The heat from the water would warm the temporary shelter space. So that space may evolve into a family gathering in winter to cook on a grill, enjoy a warm soak while everyone else is hemmed up in their houses.

What a beautiful project. Everything about it is just stunning. You can tell you put in so much effort to this build for so long and it paid off tremendously.

The unique shape and contorus would be difficult to cover effectively, and the small amount of water isn't worth working hard to clean next year. Drain it, blow out the pipes and plug. The pumps and filter should be fine to overwinter in place, as long as they're empty of water. Avoid leaving a filter cartridge/element in the filter body all winter though; if reusable, store it dry and indoors, otherwise discard and replace next year. Get a float actuated submersible pump and a short hose and set it up in the lowest area of the bottom to keep it mostly clean and free of water until you're ready to clean and refill next year.

A+ Incredible build journey! I would recommend incorporating colloidal silver into the water; it significantly reduces algae growth. It's cheap and easy to make yourself with 9V batteries and some silver bullion.

Your build was lovely. 🥰 I hope that you sealed the tile and that it did not fall apart. I loved your video! ❤So AMAZING. 🤩

I am in awe! The whole process from an idea to a paper sketch to a finished product was amazing.

Drew, this is a beautiful gift for your parents. I'm sure they're very pleased, proud, and grateful!! Good job! 👏👏👏

That would be nice for a summer time dunking cool water pool as well. Great job.

Amazing. This was so much work with a variety of skills applied. I learned a lot, but mostly I’m just in awe of you and what you did here. Thank you!

8:12 I think before you say, "that's not going anywhere", you're supposed to slap it. Super cool build. Cheers.

Haha I hope I didn’t jinx the build by not doing that

Your parents must be very proud of you and grateful for what they've got!

Im thoroughly impressed!

What a legend. I’ve been considering one like this for years, you have inspired me. I just don’t know how warm it would get in the uk.

You could always make a natural looking hottub with a traditional heater, you just have to be mindful of the bad bacteria. We use peroxide in our tub

I'd be so proud of you if I were your parents, this is wonderful!

nothing can explain the joy and calmness i feel while watching this guy bruh.i hope you go far far drew

Watching that backhoe work is oddly satisfying. Gonna just put that part on a loop. 😂 Amazing project! Looks really nice.

Drew, This is freakin' phenomenal! You have an excellent sense of aesthetics. Great job!

It’s incredible how talented he is. Not only does he make the most original and epic things, but he make the videos so captivating too.

Geeezzz this seriously couldn’t have come out any better than it did! You’re very talented my friend. If u were willing to travel the nation I guarantee u could make a business building these. This is very impressive I’m glad I ran into this video.

Very unlikely he could build these with profit, KZread pays for the expenses and makes it worth doing this/these projects. In the end we all profit (he $, we content), but nobody would hire an amateur (I mean no disrespect) to build an overpriced hottub/pond in their backyard. I also doubt the longevity of this project. But it looks really really nice on KZread and gives inspiration.

@@moos5221 I literally live in a neighborhood with neighbors that flew ppl just like him out to build ponds every person in the surrounding area has done so. Landscapers do projects like this on top of doing the rest of the properties all the time and make careers out of it. My cousin does it for a living. Plus KZread isn’t funding this his fans probably cover the majority of the funding through purchasing merchandise. KZread doesn’t pay out as well as they did back in the day. Ur crazy if u don’t think ppl make living out of this. I’ve been involved with the aquatics industry for 15yrs (fresh/salt/ponds/aquaculture). “Nobody would hire an amateur” lol everyone has started as an amateur plus this would be an incredible start on a resume within the field IF he even wanted to do this. I doubt he intends on doing it anyway I was just complementing the guy as best I can through txt cause he deserves it. He has proof that he could do these things you on the other hand don’t have any videos posted. You took what said and ran with it for no reason. you lack credibility not this guy he’s very talented and well rounded when it comes to diy builds.

Jtone, He said it cost him 20 grand to build this. The retail price would be 5 times that to pay the labor crew plus materials, and leave room for profit, and very few if any would pay that much for one of these.

@@moos5221 Actually know a pool guy that builds these, plus more. Seen some half million dollar projects of his in south Florida.

No matter what happens, don’t give up. Accomplishing the tough stuff makes it that much more rewarding.

😮WOW! Holy $h!t! 😮 I am just blown away on the finished project. It literally took my breath away. Absolutely exquisite! The attention to detail was carefully executed to absolute perfection. Your work is truly magnificent ! ❤❤

Well done, sir! Anyone would be stoked to have such a wonderful waterscape added to their backyard.

If you can dream it, you CAN build it! Really appreciate the dedication and execution on filming, editing and voice over to share such a tremendous build. Thank you and enjoy the ride

😍 That looks so peaceful. It's absolutely amazing.

This turned out so good Drew! Looks like an amazing spot to relax after all that work.

That is way cooler then a pool! Def a cool build!

I thought pretty well of myself until I watched this video. This guy is a champ!

Being from Northern Wisconsin originally, the thought of a Hot Springs or Outdoor Hot Tub during a -32F Winter sounds awesome...except the quick freezing when getting out.

Wow. Totally Speechless how well this turned out. Cant wait for the next projects.

That outro was hilarious lol! Incredible job as always Drew! Not only with the construction work but the amount of time and detail it takes to record, edit and story tell the entire process takes immense skill. Can't wait to see what's next!

Looks amazing!! You did an awesome job!!!!

It's so beautiful, gorgeous😍

Dude you are freakin nuts, I swear you outdo yourself on every video. I love this build so much. And I especially like the part where you were honest about feeling in over your head near the beginning, that's really encouraging
