We built this sauna and use it every day. The sauna heats up to 212°F in about an hour and holds heat well. In fact, everything works well. The ventilation, the stove, the huge window - everything checked out. The design is simple to build and the instructions are easy to follow.
A high level of safety, especially if you decide to build a wood fired sauna. I explain in great detail, for example, how to install a roof stove pipe sleeve. Any mistakes in this area are the most common cause of fires. I have tested various fire safety solutions, improving fire safety every time.
No interruptions. Just you. Relax. Relief. Repeat. Nothing else matters. I wanted to build not only a functional sauna but also a beautiful one, that you can put in your garden and enjoy a nice piece of architecture. Imagine a sauna party for friends and family in your backyard!
Hi! It's Peter here. Together with my wife Justine we are passionate about sauna. We have our own sauna at home and enjoy it a lot, also with our children 4 and 7 years old :) We also run a tiny house in the woods rental where all our cabins have private saunas built according to this plan :) I am a mechanical engineer with over 15 years of experience in design and construction. I decided to dedicate my knowledge and expertise to help people build their dream sauna. You can read more about my professional background on Linkedin.
