The time required to install a sauna depends on the size and design. Prefabricated saunas can be installed in as little as two to four hours and require limited tools, while custom designs can take multiple days or weeks to build and install.
Saunas offer many benefits to your physical and mental health, including detoxification, improved circulation, stress relief, muscle relaxation, and enhanced sleep.
Local regulations determine whether you require a permit to install your sauna. However, most standard-sized saunas do not require a permit unless extensive electrical work is necessary.
Most homeowners put saunas in outdoor spaces such as near a pool, on an enclosed porch, or in the backyard. If the home size and design allow for it, they may also place saunas in bathrooms, basements, walk-in closets, or the garage.
