HOW TO BUILD A SAUNA
Mental and physical stress has become a part of our daily routine. No matter whatever we try to save ourselves from this vicious net, we observe that for most of us it is difficult to rule them out of our hectic schedules. So we should be grateful to the age old steam technique i.e. sauna which is immensely effective to fight out such stresses.
One should keep in mind the following attributes when constructing a home sauna: 1. Design of sauna i.e. the material and size aspects 2. Location for installation 3. Method of heat production
1. Design of sauna i.e. the size and material aspects
Size of sauna: Size factor is governed by the requirement of the user or users. It is decided upon on the basis of number of people using, space required for changing room and dry area, shower area requirement and the space required for the heat generation stove or other machine.
Material used for construction: Material of sauna system is chosen keeping in mind the availability, suitability and the budget considerations. The materials that can be used for sauna construction are plastic, wood or glass. They can be prefabricated or built at site as per the convenience.
2. Location for installation
It is one of the most crucial features that affect the selection of a sauna system. It is majorly dependent on the method used for generating heat and the availability of water for steam production.
Outdoors saunas are preferred in case when the source is wood and so extra space is required for the storing the wood stock. Indoor saunas are selected and more popular wherein electricity is used, because indoor electrical connection is easier than outdoors. In cases where good plumbing and draining facilities are possible to provide, indoor saunas are the best option. Outdoor saunas also require moderate to good plumbing services unless water is directly made available from a pool or a pond.
3. Method of heat production
Although in the most primitive saunas, wood was the only source for producing heat, now with the reforms in the fuels we use electricity, gas and infrared waves to generate heat.
Electricity: Nowadays electricity is widely used because of the economic considerations. The reason for its reasonable cost is that there is no involvement of cutting and hauling of material and this cuts down on the labour costs. Another important aspect is that electrical connections are easily available and so there are not much bothering in this type. Low operating cost; adds only $3 to $5 per month to your electric bill.
Gas: If you have a smaller budget, gas is the best option for your fuel requirements. It is comparatively cheaper than electricity and wood. But again in case of gas fuel, one should check for the emissions and test whether the carbon monoxide is within the permissible limits.
In spite of all the options, it is as per the client’s decision to select his own choice, based on his expediency and budget considerations.
