Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a Barrel Sauna?
A barrel sauna is a traditional sauna shaped like a horizontal barrel. This unique design promotes natural heat circulation and minimizes unused air space, allowing for quicker warm-up and more efficient energy use. Most barrel saunas are made from cedar, spruce, or thermowood, offering natural resistance to moisture and decay.

Do I Need a Permit for a Barrel Sauna?
In most areas, freestanding outdoor barrel saunas do not require a building permit since they are considered accessory structures, similar to sheds. However, local regulations vary, especially if you’re adding electrical or plumbing. We recommend checking with your city or county building department before installation.

How is a Barrel Sauna Installed?
Our barrel saunas come as easy-to-assemble kits with pre-cut and pre-drilled components. Most models can be assembled in 4–6 hours with two people and basic tools. A flat, stable surface such as a concrete pad, paver base, or pressure-treated deck is required for installation. We also offer professional installation services in select areas.

Can a Barrel Sauna Be Used Year-Round?
Absolutely. Barrel saunas are designed to withstand the elements and can be used in all seasons—even in snow or rain. The thick wood and secure staves insulate the heat, while the exterior remains weather-resistant with proper care and maintenance.

What Size Barrel Sauna Should I Choose?
We offer barrel saunas in various sizes, typically ranging from 2-person to 8-person models. Consider how many people will use the sauna regularly and the space you have available. Need help deciding? Contact our wellness team—we’re happy to guide you.

 What Kind of Heater Comes with a Barrel Sauna?
You can choose between an electric sauna heater (great for convenience and control) or a wood-burning stove (ideal for a traditional, off-grid experience). Both heating systems provide exceptional warmth and a relaxing atmosphere.

How Do I Maintain a Barrel Sauna?
Maintenance is minimal but essential. We recommend:

• Cleaning the interior with mild soap and water monthly.

• Oiling or sealing the exterior wood once or twice a year (depending on climate).

• Inspecting the staves and tightening the bands as needed to prevent leaks or warping.

 Does It Come with a Warranty?
Yes! All our barrel saunas are backed by a limited manufacturer’s warranty, covering defects in materials and craftsmanship. See individual product pages for warranty details.
