Does it have a heater built in? Generally it is OK to have an appliance of up to 3kw connected to a ring circuit, although in reality you'd need to take into account what else is connected to the ring circuit too. Your supplementary bonding will also need to connect to the circuit supplying this, and has been pointed out an RCD will probably be specified.
