The heating time and the maximum achievable temperature of a barrel sauna depend on both the chosen stove type and the nominal power of the stove. Customer experiences indicate that, on average, a barrel sauna takes about 45 minutes to heat up properly. It is possible to reach temperatures between 90 and 110 degrees Celsius. Individual sauna strategy also plays a crucial role.

It's important to note that the mentioned times and temperatures are averages and may vary depending on the specific characteristics of the sauna. Factors such as the insulation of the sauna, the type and thickness of the wood, as well as ventilation, can also influence the heating time and temperature.

It is advisable to preheat the sauna accordingly, taking into account the desired temperature and personal preferences. Adequate preheating time ensures an optimal sauna experience and creates a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere in the barrel sauna.

In traditional Nordic wooden cabins, spruce wood is traditionally used. It is sturdy, simple, and easy to maintain. However, there are different wood classes even within spruce. We exclusively use Nordic spruce wood of wood classes AB.

A modern alternative is Thermowood. This is thermally modified wood that undergoes physical and chemical changes through heat exposure. During this treatment, certain substances in the wood, such as resins, are broken down. However, the organic acid that protects the wood from pests remains intact. A side effect of the thermal treatment is a darker coloration of the wood, giving it an elegant appearance.

Regardless of the wood you choose, we source our real wood exclusively from FSC-certified forests and treat it with care. Feel free to read our guide 'Spruce Wood or Thermowood?' for a detailed comparison of the two types of wood.

To set up a barrel sauna, there are some important prerequisites to consider:

Stable and Level Ground: It's crucial that the ground where the barrel sauna is placed is stable and level. A compacted surface such as stone or concrete is ideal. A soft surface like a grass area is not suitable as it can become unstable when wet.

Adequate Space: Ensure that there is enough space for the barrel sauna, both for the sauna itself and for access and use around it.

Ventilation: The barrel sauna requires adequate ventilation to ensure good air circulation and the removal of warm air. Make sure there is enough space around the sauna for air to circulate freely.

Fire Protection: If your barrel sauna is heated with a wood stove, ensure there is sufficient fire protection to shield the surroundings from sparks or heat.
