Outdoor Sauna Kits

The wood-fired sauna is the oldest type of sauna, giving you the most authentic experience. A soul-warming scent of wood-burning and soft steam is what makes this type preferable for many. If you want to follow Finnish traditions, get a wood-burning sauna.

Electric sauna is efficient, easy to use, and safe. It will heat up quicker and come with safety features such as temperature sensors and overheating protection. The main disadvantage is that it will affect your utility bill. If you are looking for a convenient solution or you live in a place where wood is not widely available, consider an electric sauna.

Here’s some of the benefits of having a second room, changing/sitting room, which will surely make your sauna experience much better!

It is an ideal place to store sauna accessories. Hang up your sauna supplies, like a bathrobe, towels, aromatic oils for moisturizing your skin, or a sauna whisk, ladle, and bucket. No more lugging items out from the house to the sauna; store everything you need in the changing room, and it will all be close by when you fire up the sauna next time.

A place to change clothes

When stepping out of your house, you may not want to run across your yard in your towel or bathing suit. Also, after your spa experience, you can get dressed before stepping outside.

It’s the spot in which you can relax and cool down between steam room sessions. You may even spend more time in the sitting room than in the steam room. It’s important to take breaks from the heat, but when it’s raining or snowing, who wants to step outside or dash into the house?

Double doors help to save the heat in the steam room. An extra room is great for cold climates and provides a buffer zone between the exterior cold and the interior sauna room. Having double doors means opening the main sauna door does not cause a drastic drop in the steam room temperature.

A place to socialize while you steam

You can invite friends over to share your sauna experience, chat, listen to music, have a snack, sip a cup of a hot tea or a cold beer, whichever you prefer. Sauna a perfect hang-out zone!

Numbers about a sauna’s capacity can be misleading and confusing. Identical saunas have been advertised as four-person, six-person, or even eight-person saunas.

Capacity is not about how many people you can squeeze in; it’s about how many people you enjoy having in the sauna when you’re using it. If you like to lay down and stretch out, the sauna’s hot room must be at least 72”+ long; that’s the measurement of a two-person sauna.

Consider 22” – 24” of space for each seated person. And remember: you must take into account enough space for the heater to be a safe distance from the sitting area. For example: if a sauna room is 72”, it is comfortable enough for four people, two on each side.

A larger diameter allows the sauna benches to be installed higher, and also allows for two-level seating. Two-level seating is a great option when the sauna is being used by children, and people who enjoy different heat temperatures.

Outdoor saunas can be set on a concrete slab, gravel, concrete blocks, or a wooden terrace. There should also be adequate drainage so as not to allow the water to pool around the base.

Support legs

When choosing a barrel sauna: the more legs, the better; they distribute barrel’s weight more evenly and take the stress from the floor logs. Support legs keep the structure straight and level.
