Preparing a Good Foundation

Your retailer has a wealth of information and experience about how to get the most out of your sauna. Your sauna retailer also has a full line of accessories that are designed to complement your sauna.

Your sauna needs a solid and level foundation. The area that it sits on must be able to support the weight of the sauna and the occupants who use it. If the foundation is inadequate, it may shift or settle after the sauna is in place, causing stress that could alter the structure’s seal.

NOTE: Damage caused by inadequate or improper foundation support is not covered by the warranty. It

is the responsibility of the sauna owner to provide a proper foundation for the sauna.

Place outdoor saunas on an elevated foundation (preferrably a 3” concrete slab). If you are installing the sauna indoors, pay close attention to the flooring beneath it. Choose flooring that won’t be spoiled or stained.

If you are installing your sauna on an elevated wood deck or other structure, it is highly recommended that you consult a structural engineer or contractor to ensure the structure will support the weight. We strongly recommend that a qualified, licensed contractor prepare the foundation for your sauna.
