Sauna cabins

Are you also considering building a sauna cabin or a sauna house?

We have been using saunas across much of Europe since the Middle Ages. It is both a pleasant and comfortable way to wash yourself in a social and relaxed manner, and it is also a health benefit to sweat out bacteria and waste products from your pores. When the sauna was not used for bathing, it was often used in the past for drying flax, grain, and malt, but also for smoking food.

And even today, a sauna cabin in the garden is many people’s dream. The word 'bastu' originally comes from the abbreviation of the word 'badstuga', a standalone house where one can sit in warmth and still have easy access to the cold outside. Or to water! If you have a lake or a pool nearby, a sauna house is perfect. There is nothing better than diving into the water after first roasting your body in the sauna. And it's healthy too!

Building a sauna cabin doesn't have to be a complicated project

Unfortunately, for many people, the dream of building a sauna cabin remains just a dream. However, it can be quite simple to make it a reality by purchasing a sauna as a DIY kit. Most people can fulfill their dream of an outdoor sauna this way. Polhus delivers the sauna cabin as a package with all the parts included: all the timber, doors, windows, and – if the customer wishes – a sauna heater, either electric or wood-burning. The sauna kit is designed so that it can be assembled by following the manual, even for customers without prior experience in building. Additionally, our building experts are always available as a sounding board and consultants via phone and email until the sauna is fully installed.
