What is a Barrel Sauna?

A barrel sauna is a type of traditional Finnish sauna that's shaped like a barrel or cylinder. This design provides more headroom and a larger interior space, making it a comfortable option for larger groups or those wanting more room to stretch out.

Benefits of a Barrel Sauna

There are many reasons to consider a barrel sauna for your home. Here are a few of the key benefits:

Unique design: 

With its distinctive shape, a barrel sauna will make a statement in your backyard or indoor space.

Roomy interior: 

As mentioned, a barrel sauna offers more headroom and interior space than other saunas. This makes it an excellent option for families or groups of friends.

Energy efficient: 

Because of their round shape, barrel saunas are naturally energy efficient. This means they heat up faster and retain heat for longer, making them a cost-effective choice.

Easy to install: 

Most barrel saunas come pre-assembled, so they're easy to set up and use immediately.

What to Consider When Choosing a Barrel Sauna

When selecting a barrel sauna, there are a few key factors to remember. Here's what you should consider:

Size and Capacity: What Size Barrel Sauna is Right For You?

Size is one of the most critical factors when choosing a barrel sauna. You'll want to ensure that the sauna is large enough to fit all the people who will be using it comfortably and small enough to fit in your desired location. 

Most saunas have information about the maximum number of people they can comfortably accommodate, such as a 4-person or 6-person capacity. A good rule of thumb is allowing at least 2-3 square feet of floor space per person. 

Remember that larger saunas generally cost more and may require a dedicated electrical circuit. Our collection of Owner’s Manuals provides interior dimensions and technical drawings, so you can see how the sauna will fit in your space.

Barrel Sauna Wood Type: Which is Best? 

The type of material your sauna is made of can greatly impact its durability and insulation. Most barrel saunas are made from cedar or spruce, naturally resistant to rot and decay. Look for saunas with double-walled construction and high-density insulation to ensure that heat is retained efficiently.

Types of Barrel Sauna Wood:

Cedar: A Popular Choice with Fantastic Aroma

Cedar is a popular option for saunas due to its delightful aroma and resistance to decay, insects, and extreme weather conditions. Its durability, resilience, and attractive color make it a higher-priced option, but well worth it for its long-lasting beauty.

Nordic Spruce: A Balance of Affordability and Aesthetics

Nordic Spruce is a light-colored wood with tight knots that add a rustic and picturesque touch to your sauna. It offers a cost-effective solution, balancing affordability, durability, and thermal resistance.

Hemlock Fir: An Affordable Option for Indoor Saunas

Hemlock Fir is an affordable sauna wood that hardens over time, providing longevity and excellent value. This type of wood is great for indoor and infrared saunas, but there are better choices for outdoor environments that experience severe weather conditions.

Thermally Treated Wood: A Durable Option with Eco-Friendly Benefits

Thermally treated wood uses heat and steam to enhance its durability and resistance to rot of any wood. Brands like Thermory Barrel Saunas offer natural, chemical-free, and eco-friendly thermally modified saunas.

Barrel Sauna Heater Type: Which is Best For You? 

The heating and ventilation system is another critical factor when choosing a barrel sauna. Electric heaters are the most common, but wood-fired saunas are also available. Ensure the heating system is powerful enough to heat the sauna to your desired temperature quickly. Each option has pros and cons, so choosing one that works best for your needs and budget is essential. Good ventilation is also essential to ensure that the air inside the sauna stays fresh and clean.

The type of heater you choose is a matter of personal preference, but there are also functional variations to consider. Here are the two most popular options:

Wood-Burning Heaters

Wood-burning heaters are perfect for outdoor barrel saunas, especially those 6' x 6' or larger. They can produce intense heat and offer an authentic sauna experience, but you must purchase a chimney kit.

Electric Heaters

Electric heaters are suitable for indoor and outdoor barrel saunas and come in various sizes and power options. They offer easy maintenance, more precise temperature control, and the convenience of turning on with a switch. However, the installation will require the services of a licensed electrician.

Barrel Sauna Features 

Finally, consider the comfort features that are important to you. Some options include comfortable seating, a sound system, and drinks cooler. Make sure the sauna you choose has everything you need to make the most of your relaxing experience.

Customizations for Your Sauna Experience

Change Room: A Convenient Space for Changing

A change room provides a private space for changing before or after your sauna session and a place to store your belongings or take a break.

Himalayan Salt Wall or LED Light Bar: Ambient Light for Relaxation

Add a touch of relaxation with the gentle glow of a Himalayan Salt Wall or LED Light Bar. Both options can be easily installed and controlled for a personalized sauna experience.

Color-Changing Mood Light: Experience Chromotherapy

Get the benefits of color-light therapy with a color-changing LED Mood Light. This option includes a mountable LED light with 20 color variations and intensities and a remote control.

Automation: Adding Convenience to Your Sauna Experience

If you're interested in automating your sauna, our HUUM electric sauna stoves and Harvia KIP & Virta models can control temperature, humidity, lighting, and more. HUUM UKU WiFi or UKU Glass heater controls come with a wall-mounted controller that can be adjusted using a free app and your smartphone.

Sauna Accessories: Add Comfort and Convenience

Enhance your sauna experience with accessories like buckets and ladles, timers, thermometers, hygrometers, sauna lights, water bottle shelves, robe or towel hooks, and essential oils. You can also add comfort with backrests and leg lifts, or protect your outdoor sauna from inclement weather with a roof cover.
