The guides take you through legal basics, foundation or room requirements, wall build-up with vapour barrier, heater, ventilation and costs – the plan gives you the benches with every dimension and cut.

Written and drawn by a carpenter with hands-on experience.

HOW PLAN AND GUIDE FIT TOGETHER
The bench from the plan fits both: bench heights and depths for the cabin are explained in the indoor sauna guide, the interior of the sauna house with benches in the garden sauna guide. The example cabins in the guides are separate models; the bench comes in 3 sizes in the plan (1500, 1800 and 2000 mm long). As in both guides, the frames are max. 60 cm apart and the slats are screwed from below with hidden 5 x 70 mm screws. For the sauna house from the garden sauna guide, lengthen the uprights by 100 mm (upper bench at 1.00 m). In short: building plan for the benches, step-by-step build of the sauna house in the garden sauna guide.

Electrical connection by a qualified electrician only; for cabins on upper floors have the load-bearing capacity checked by a structural engineer; a wood-fired stove indoors is a fireplace and needs the chimney sweep's approval beforehand (Germany).
