New to this, looking to get unbiased views! We’ve recently installed a wood burning hot tub in our garden. We generally use it Saturday and Sunday evenings which involves starting a small fire with wood once alight we add smokeless coal for a slow burn to heat the water. Yesterday I started the burner at just gone 4pm, I always check neighbours don’t have washing out etc prior and never start it in the day time. Within 10 mins a neighbour 2 doors down knocked to complain the smoke was blowing into her garden , I apologised and explained i had added coal and the smoke should be dying down shortly which it did. That night at 8pm she then shouted out her window that the smoke was going into her house. For reference it’s blowing an absolute gale in our region so I’m not sure how she could smell it. So as not to drip feed I think we are good neighbours generally, always take parcels in , don’t park on the road, no loud parties etc. We live in a pretty busy housing estate and although I know it’s not ideal I kind of think you have to deal with some noise / environmental pollution living in a built up area. The smell produced is similar to a bbq if that helps and the flume reaches the top of the house. Are we BU ?
