I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package ruclips.net/user/postUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.
I was crying… it is magnificent.. I dream of having a sauna . How lucky a family to have you care for their health. So so proud of your achievements, your family must be so proud.
I have been doing my homework to build a sauna at home and I must say you are the first to mention having ventilation . I also like the clips for the tongue and groove boards . Very nice build , thank you for sharing .
Just replaced my sauna’s paneling and the boards last weekend. My sauna is small as it is in a Finnish duplex at only 1,5 m by 1,5 m, but I would add a few things for someone else building their sauna: -Remember to add wood on top of the aluminium foil. That way you create a space between the aluminium and the paneling so it can dry from behind the paneling. -Use the same parafin oil as used on the boards for the paneling to extend their life. As an option, if you don’t want to deepen the colour or want the color to be something else, there is this Supi Saunavaha (saunawax) from Tikkurila that is sold in a few colors and can be dyed to many other, atleast in Finland. I used saunawax on the paneling and parafin oil on the boards to create a nice color change. - I noticed that the top boards had a quite high difference to the bottom boards. In Finland, we use 40 cm from the top boards to bottom boards as a guide so people of many heights can go to sauna comfortably. Great video, nevertheless. I enjoyed it and it is very comprehensive. I’m sure there isn’t so much information about sauna building outside of Finland and in other languages so you did well. Have a great day and hyviä löylyjä!
Great video! I learned a lot and it was really well done. One thing I notice about non-native English speakers is that they're generally hyper critical of their English when they in fact have perfect English but make small mistakes that don't take anything away from what they're trying to say. Most native English speakers don't speak a different language fluently so you're already better than us in that aspect lol
In Finnish saunas the exhaust for humid air is always either in the ceiling or high up on the wall. This is because hot air rises up, and air circulates better. Intake is usually made by leaving door with 10cm space underneath it. No need for holes in the wall and vents.
That is probably the easy way to go construction-wise, but Harvia (traditional Finnish manufacturer) recommends to do a "chimney style" type exhaust, exactly like you see in the video. Also a 10cm gap under the door is WAY too much, maybe more like 1cm. But making the air intake behind or under the heater is superior solution.
@@Ronny.81 Well usually there is 1 door and little dressing room before actual sauna door. If its build like in this video there is wooden door with no gaps and ventilation is done differently.
First off, great instructions and explanations. Thank you Marek. Second, you get additional point for your comm skills! English is not your birth language (guessing) but your comm was very clear ... extra points for using the work "doo-hickey". Lastly, after viewing dozens of tutorials on youtube about constructing saunas, you were the ONLY person who included details about how big a sauna you were building. Critical info. Well done Marek. Mine will be 8x6 and bench construction was very informative. Cheers.
I have watched a bunch of these videos, and yours is by far the most informative and clear to understand. This is especially true when you talk about vents. No one else I've seen has clearly explained the vents. There is some mention elsewhere about a "vent above the heater" which you do not mention, and which I can not find a reason for.
Best video on self build sauna. Enjoyable watch, and very nice design. I’m planning on converting an underground air ride shelter for mine. If it comes out anywhere near as nice as this I’ll be happy. I’ll take my time and plan on doing a good job. Thank you for the tips.
If you need to increase the flow of air, you can consider bypassing the exhaust tube that is down behind the benches and just punch a hole up in the wall straight to the current exhaust hole going out through the wall. But if the ventilation is working currently, no need. Good-looking sauna.
Thank you very much for the very good information and the relaxed way of lecturing. I will incorporate the info into my sauna construction. You have a very good English pronunciation
I really wish Finland was open so I can go back and purchase a Finnish heater and wood for my sauna. Traveled there in 2018, beautiful country. Btw-Good video
Hi Marek Thanks for posting this video I am building a sauna here in Western Australia and followed most of your tips If you're ever down here let me know and I'll buy you a beer
Also, I forgot. A tip for nailing tongue and groove is to work with the tongue side open. Then you nail in the top of the tongue angling back towards the board. Then when you slip the next groove over, it's like it's pre nailed on that edge and you only need to nail the tongue again. And you can get away without clips. Unless the moisture in a sauna is the reasoning behind them, I'm not sure
Thanks for this video. I’m planning a sauna build, and your experience is helpful. I especially appreciate your willingness to use English. You are doing well with the language.
Thank you for this very nice explanation video. I watched it a lot of times when building my own sauna. It's almost finished now. The attached drawings are also very helpfull. Great job!
Really nice build! You really know what you are talking about! There is just a couple of things I would do differently. First, i think the benches are a litte overworked as you also stated. And the planks you mounted under the bench as a cover is preventing air to pass to your air outlet when it's placed under the bench. If you go with that bench design I would definetly have the outlet near the ceiling or I would keep the benches wall mounted without front covers.
Very nice job but thing that i should do different is that between inside paneling and aluminium foil there should be a gap of some kind for the air to go move behind the paneling, otherwise the aluminium keeps the moist and it gets stuck to the paneling from the inside. Then there is a gap at the bottom and where the wall and ceiling meet to make air circulation possible. Same with ceiling panels. Sauna looks awesome though
You're second person writing this, so that may be the case. The sauna is 3 years now and the panneling doesn't show any degrading, but maybe that will show later. Cheers
@@1Ron5mith yes, and screwing the paneling into the battens minimizes holes on the vapour barrier. when you screw the paneling through the aluminum you make holes that let humid air travel into the walls. it is also good to use the battens to hang the foil, or at least tape over all of the staples, they are also holes in the vapour barrier. looks really good though
Can you guys please elaborate more on the gap on the bottom and where the wall and the ceiling meet? Also for the ceiling panels? I'm not sure if I'm understanding this, but I feel it will be quite important not to skip this step. How exactly do you do it? Please describe a little more. Thank you!
@@gablan1468 after the insulation and heat reflector installment, where in the given video you installed wood paneling, there would have to be what we call here a distance wood, for ceiling and walls Its about 21x45 wood which length varies by need, idea is they leave a gap between the heat reflection and wood paneling for the air to circulate. Between ceiling and wall i leave a gap the thickness of the builders pencil and between wall to wall connection there are two options. One, to match the wood paneling connection point, the thinner lines , helps air to circulate or leave a gap same as ceiling to wall. Wall from the bottom beed to have a slightly bigger gap. Hope this made any sense.
Marku pecka. Jediné co mi tam chybí je ochrana před topením aby se saunující nepopálili, jinak ti fandim. Rovněž musím říct, že si asi měl investovat do toho okna s rámem 🙂 Nestojí to za tu práci 🙂
Prepáčte za to ja si dovolím povedať že takto zapracované okno vyzerá ďaleko lepšie ako kúpiť hotové okno s rámom … aj keď áno je to pracnejsie … a nie vždy može vyhovovať rozmer. Sklo si dáte vyrobiť viac menej všade.
Top man! Great video & all explained in detai. Will start my sauna project this summer.. can't wait. Many thanks for all the effort Marek, Many regards from Woking,England
Thanx! Finishing mine now and you gave me some good ideas. Mine is 6.5’ x 7.5’ x 7’(tall), wood heated, American Western Red Cedar interior...should be done in few weeks can’t wait!
I am planing to build my sauna. I have building skills for building house, but sauna is a little bit different. Thumbs up for effort to share the information :) I also wanted to add that when you do paneling inside, you must do an extra framing on the top of aluminium layer, and you leave also the gap at the bottom, so the moisture which traps behind the panel could be dried out and there would be no mold. Speaking about what type of panels are good to use, i just can tell that pine and fir is not good to use, because it has resins which can start dripping when sauna is heated..
Agree...this is the first seriously informative video! Great stuff, with great comments for consideration for improvements. Am I the only one who has questions about the outdoor shower? I am in Canada and would like to know if the "shower" is able to be used in all seasons? If so, what is the freezing protection?
Outdoor shower: I have it set-up that I pressurize the outside pipes only when I enter the sauna, then as you go through the cycles, the water moves every 20 minutes or so as you are taking the showers, so it doesn't freeze. And when you are done with the whole sauna cycle you need to have an easy way to drain the system, in my case an easily accessible valve in the lowest part of the piping, which drains the pipes as well as the body of the shower. It's a bit labour intensive, but I don't think there's any other possible way, shy of heated pipes.
Also now that you've been using your sauna for a while, anything you would change now? I know during you talked about the window being a hassle, but it really does look great!
ad. foil: I just stapled it along the bottom edge to the wooden structure. Also add a strip of tiles along the bottom of the wall, so the cladding ends a bit above the floor and doesn't go all the way to the floor, so it doesn't start rotting from moisture on the ground. ad. experience: The sauna works great, maybe leave a gap between the foil and the final cladding, many have suggested in the comments this to be the proper procedure. Also a drain might be a good idea, if you intend to be very messy with the water pours. ad. window: The window isn't a hassle at all, it works great and doesn't produce any noticable heat loss. Weak point of the sauna is the outdoor shower. Had it freeze/break, even though I tried to drain the system after each use.
@@MarekVacek I appreciate your detailed response. This is extremely helpful. I am planning to install a sauna this month so super grateful for all your help.
perfect instructions, and please what about insulation of floor ? now im starting with buíding sauna outside in the garden, we are staring with base from concrete and i do not know if insulate it under concrete.
Mine floor isn't insulated, and it doesn't cause any problems. If it's in the garden, the floor will stay cool either way, heat rises up, so most important is insulation of ceiling and walls. More importantly put some water barier on the concrete (I used painted-on hydroinsulation), so the wood doesn't get wet from the bottom, that is more pressing concern.
hi folks…btw very nice project Martin. I would strongly suggest to insulate floor base as well similiar way as other walls. It is pretty large thermal bridge and i believe that during cold winter times it helps remarkably to speed up heating time and save cost as well. Simply in this case we are cooling down already heated air. Considering entire budget it will be worth of investing few more euro in to the insulation of a floorbase. A este raz Martine pekna prace a vdaka za zdielanie videa! ja viem, ze kazdi je mudry po boji 😉Tolko len moj pohlad na vec. Uzivaj saunu.
Great job! None of the saunas I’ve built have been nearly this nice. I build my own heaters and use recycled wood milled from untreated utility poles and fence material for sheeting. Thank you for posting your build.
Thanks a lot! You did a great job and explained your build using only relevant facts. Thats AWESOME!!! (not like the other youtuber, explaining where he bought his throusers to build the sauna and made me stop watching it at the same moment). Hope to see more videos from you. Stay well!
Ahoj, díky za video. Zrovna řeším rozměrově velmi podobnou saunu a celkově hodně obdobné řešení, tak jsem rád, že jsem narazil na tohle video. Pokud se můžu zeptat, dostane se teplota v sauně s těmito kamny na cca 100 stupňů? Zvažuji, jaké použít dveře, zda takové celosklo, nebo nebo dřevěné s izolací a dvojsklem. Zvažoval bys nyní jiné dveře, nebo jsi s těmito spokojený? Jak po těch letech vypadají palubky za kamny? Furt dumám nad nějakou akumulační ochrannou stěnou, ale je fakt, že já chci použít kamna na zeď, tak nevím, jestli se dá srovnávat. Předem díky a měj se. Robert
You mean like without the vertical parts filled in? I don't think it makes practical diference, I made the tops removable for cleaning and the air circulation for drying isn't bad, those gaps between the boards are plenty enough.
After watching a bunch of sauna builds this is by far the most informative and the easiest watch of them all
Yes I was just going to say this! This video is most helpful and detailed

Thanks
I can't really fault the build or its quality, loved english terms pronounced by a non english man doohicky golden lol beautiful job sir👌
Nice looking sauna but a miss is no floor drain. Use a bit of water when taking a sauna and after a good clean. Almost impossible without a drain.

Furt dumám nad nějakou akumulační ochrannou stěnou, ale je fakt, že já chci použít kamna na zeď, tak nevím, jestli se dá srovnávat. Předem díky a měj se. Robert
The traditional bench setup is less trendy but will stay nice much longer. It dries faster after use and is much easier to wash.
You mean like without the vertical parts filled in? I don't think it makes practical diference, I made the tops removable for cleaning and the air circulation for drying isn't bad, those gaps between the boards are plenty enough.
