Crafting your bespoke outdoor wellness retreat is a labour of love that typically takes 6-12 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and current demand. Each sauna requires several hundred hours of skilled craftsmanship to ensure unparalleled quality and attention to detail. Cold plunges take less time. We'll provide you with an estimated completion date during the design phase and keep you updated throughout the process.

Our commitment to excellence means we never rush the creation of your outdoor sauna or cold plunge. We appreciate your patience as we work diligently to deliver a premium product that exceeds your expectations and provides years of relaxation and health benefits.

Key safety measures include:

• Stay hydrated: Drink water before, during, and after your sauna session

• Avoid alcohol: Don't use the sauna while under the influence of alcohol

• Listen to your body: Exit if you feel dizzy, nauseous, or uncomfortable

• Cool down gradually: Allow your body to cool naturally after your session

• Consult your doctor: If you have any health conditions, consult your physician before using a sauna

• Never sleep in the sauna

• Ensure proper ventilation is maintained

While saunas offer many advantages, it's crucial to use them sensibly and in accordance with your individual health needs.

IteSauna maintenance is relatively simple:

• Regular cleaning: Wipe down benches and floor

• Periodic deep cleaning: Use a mild soap solution monthly

• Wood treatment: Apply wood treatment annually to maintain the wood's condition

• Heater maintenance: Clean and inspect the heater as per manufacturer's instructions

• Ventilation check: Ensure proper airflow is maintained

Most electric saunas require a dedicated 220-240V circuit. The specific requirements depend on the sauna's size and type. We provide detailed electrical specifications during the planning phase.

For beginners, we recommend starting with 10-15 minute sessions. As you acclimate, you can gradually increase to 15-20 minutes. Listen to your body and exit if you feel uncomfortable. Most experienced users enjoy 20-30 minute sessions, sometimes with short breaks.

Our outdoor saunas are specifically crafted to thrive in the British climate. They are built with high-quality, weather-resistant materials and feature robust insulation to ensure they remain efficient and comfortable throughout the year. We also provide advice on placement and site preparation to ensure your sauna integrates seamlessly into your garden or outdoor space.
