Outdoor barrel sauna makes a perfect addition to any backyard, garden, cabin, deck and pool. This kit offers an authentic sauna experience with rolling heat, truly “loyly” (the steam rises from the sauna). It’s considered as highly efficient in terms of energy and materials.
Why Do You Invest in an Outdoor Barrel Sauna?
1. Faster heating
A circle fits into a square; but a square won’t fit into a circle. You can consider this comparison when it comes to choosing between a barrel and a square shaped sauna. However, a square sauna leaves extra and unused space and the heater is forced to heat that unnecessary space.
But a barrel sauna uses less unused airspace and an equal amount of usable air space. It allows you to use the same size heater to get the sauna hot much faster. It can reach maximum heat level within 45 minutes.
2. Even heat distribution
When the heat rises, the top area of the sauna gets hot than the lower part of the sauna. In a cedar barrel sauna, the room curvature pushes down the upper heat down the sides and back into the sauna when the new heat rises from the heater. It makes the higher temperature lower inside while allowing heat to distribute evenly throughout the sauna.
3. Higher Efficiency
Outdoor barrel saunas use air space more efficiently so that they use less energy for heating the room. In addition, cedar is considered as an excellent insulator that makes the sauna cool to touch even at the top of the sauna. This means, you won’t get to experience any effect on your utility bills even if you use your barrel sauna regularly.
4. Maintenance-free
The barrel sauna gets installed in the outdoor. Naturally, it sheds water. The sauna has the structural integrity to handle substantial snow load without affecting the sauna structure.
