Home Saunas
Home Saunas can be installed in your home, an out building or they can be a complete stand-alone unit.
Do You Want an Indoor or Outdoor Sauna?
If you have enough room inside your home, you can assemble an infrared saunaindoors. Maybe you have an extra room that’s being used as a home gym? An infrared sauna will make an excellent addition to your family gym. If you are fortunate enough to have a very large bathroom with some extra space consider installing a sauna. In or around a bathing/showering area would be a logical choice because you must rinse off in a shower after exiting the sauna. If you have no space inside or prefer the outdoors, consider adding a home sauna specifically designed for outdoor use. Keep in mind thatoutdoor saunas are treated and constructed in a different manner to an indoor infrared sauna. If you wish to an infrared sauna outside it needs to be placed in an out building such as a garage, cabin or any other garden shelter that would protect the sauna from the elements.
If you’re looking for an easy, affordable way to set up an infrared sauna in your home, opt for a flat-pack sauna. This type of home sauna arrives in panel form with detailed instructions, so you can easily assemble it yourself. To install the sauna, you’ll simply piece the sides together using slots, install the roof and bench. These saunas are manufactured in various sizes and shapes to fit your tastes and room size requirements. Aqualine Saunas offers two different types of wood cedar and hemlock. Cedar wood is often preferable because it is durable, resistant to decay, aromatic and can withstand harsh weather conditions (this is why most outside saunas are cedar).Cedar wood is also pleasing to the eye, providing added beauty for your home.
Opting for a pre-built outdoor sauna does limit your choice somewhat in terms of design although your choice of wood is greater. The units come flat packed and are self assembled, but construction is a little more difficult than that of an infrared sauna. You also have the option of selecting a wood burning stove for that authentic sauna experience.
Your final option is to build your own home sauna using materials from various manufacturers. This affords you the greatest freedom as you can make your home sauna any shape and use any type of wood. It’s likely to be an expensive venture though and you have to ensure that you’re a confident DIY-er if you don’t want to employ a carpenter. You can even source stand alone infrared sauna heaters if you don’t want a traditional steam sauna. These come at a premium however and need to be perfectly placed if you want to get the most from your home sauna experience.
