Abstract
A single unit precast concrete tub (1) formed out of concrete wherein a plumbing system (10) and electrical system (11) are encased within preformed concrete walls. The fully encased plumbing system protects the pipes against damage and frost. Support brackets (15) are formed on an exterior surface (4) of the side wall (2) to provide attachment points for hoisting the precast tub for transportation and installation. The support brackets also provide attachment points for building auxiliary structures, such as decks, around the precast tub.
