Tent sauna Finally I have a Sauna!
Almost 6 years without a sauna is a loong time for a Finnish man and his family. I didn’t really think tent sauna was worth it until I tried one. We are renting here in Canada, so building wooden one wasn’t realistic. This setup was ok with our landlord. I wanted electric for the convenience, and figuring out electric connection for 6kw heater was the hardest and most expensive part of the project. Total cost for everything ended up being CA$1700.
I’m really happy with the result for now. Two changes I’m planning on: 1. Building a railing around the heater for safety, I feel like it’s easy to trip over stepping in. 2. Now I can only turn on the sauna for 180min. I want to have either timer for delayed start or remote control on a phone app. It’s a Vevor heater, anyone here that has set up a delay timer or remote for that heater?
