Two Ways to Install Custom Outdoor Sauna Kits: DIY or Professional

Whether you choose one of the many pre-designed sauna kits or opt for a custom design, it’s important to understand the installation process. In this article, we’ll discuss two methods for installing custom outdoor saunas: DIY and professional installation.

DIY Installation vs Professional Help

1. DIY Installation of Custom Outdoor Sauna Kits

Some custom outdoor sauna kits are specifically designed for people who enjoy doing things on their own; for those who want to create and build things the way they like.  These kits often include pre-made materials and detailed instructions which help simplify the sauna installation process. DIY installation will not only save you money but also give you satisfaction from completing the project yourself. It is important to note that the complexity of installation may vary depending on the type of sauna kit. Simple and small sauna models may require only basic tools and a few hours of work, while more advanced and larger models may need a wider range of tools and higher technical skills, especially if they include electrical heating elements or complex layouts.

2. Professional Installation

Despite all the advantages of DIY, professional installation is still recommended to ensure the safety and legal compliance of the sauna, especially in areas with strict regulations like Minnesota. Extreme weather conditions, such as heavy snowfall or high winds, can compromise the structural integrity of poorly installed saunas. Therefore, it can be wise to reach out to professional sauna installers who not only have the skills to build sturdy and weather-resistant structures but also possess expertise in crucial aspects such as proper foundation, insulation, and moisture management. These factors will help prolong the lifespan and improve the performance of your sauna. Even if you decide to install your sauna on your own, having a conversation with a professional for advice can be invaluable.
