Sauna types
Understand the tradeoffs behind the curved enclosure, from space efficiency to weather protection.
Barrel describes the enclosure. Heater type, outdoor rating, roof treatment, bench layout and materials still need model-level verification.
The curved profile can reduce interior volume, but it can also limit standing room or bench depth near the walls. Compare internal dimensions and bench layout.
Check weather protection, roof accessories, door design, foundation requirements and maintenance documentation for the intended climate.
Compare the supplied or recommended heater, required clearances, controls, electrical service and stone capacity using manufacturer documentation.
