Sauna in the apartment: reality or the ultimate dream

The benefits of bath procedures have been known for a very long time. A visit to the steam room has a beneficial effect on the whole body, relieves stress and simply relaxes. But not every city dweller can afford to visit, at least once a week, a steam room or a sauna.

Fortunately, modern facilities and technologies allow you to equip a sauna right in your apartment. And all this without any harm to the surrounding space of the apartment. You can forget about the worries associated with planning a trip to a private steam room to the other end of the city.

Preparatory stage

You can arrange a sauna in the apartment in several places that are optimally suitable for this. Here are some of them:

1. Bathroom - of course, if the size of the room allows;
2. Wide pantry;
3. The kitchen is an unexpected place, but quite suitable;
4. Balcony - provided that it is of a closed type and insulated, it has reliable fastenings for placing a heavy structure on it.

Oddly enough, but these are the most optimal places. If you plan to equip a sauna in any other place, then most likely you will have to resort to redevelopment of the apartment, summing up additional communications, ventilation ducts and more. For this, it will be necessary to visit a number of state institutions and spend a significant amount of time and money.

Required organizations to obtain permission:

1. Housing and communal organization;
2. Supervision service for the features of redevelopment of apartments;
3. Fire organization;
4. Sanitary and epidemiological organization.

Having received all the necessary permissions for redevelopment and re-equipment of communications, you can safely proceed to the selection of materials and equipment.

Features of the arrangement of the sauna

Sequencing:

1. Clean the walls of the selected room to a concrete base, treat with special disinfectant solutions and lay the wiring;
2. Mount the flooring and cover it with tiles or boards with glue. Mount the wooden frame and lay insulation with the subsequent sheathing of walls and ceiling with eurolining.
3. Summarize the necessary communications and ventilation. Mount spotlights;
4. Mount the heating device and equip seating or lying areas.

Making and arranging a sauna in an apartment will not take much effort, time and money. But on the other hand, the result obtained will please a very long time.
