Can I bathe in the sauna?

You sure can! And we hope you do! Our saunas are built for this. Bathing in the sauna with buckets of water is a traditional and authentic practice in Finland. Generations of Finns have used this method, especially in cottage areas without running water or during winter when pipes are turned off. To facilitate this, it's recommended to move benches aside to avoid soapy water on them.

You can also bring in your garden hose and use that on yourself if you want!

Our saunas are specifically designed to handle significant water use, with walls and floors built for this purpose. When shopping for a sauna, it's advised to inquire about its suitability for water usage. Additionally, users are encouraged to check local by-laws for proper disposal of soapy water (gray water).

 

The sauna base is designed to drain to one side, allowing users to create a catch basin for gray water if needed.

Our workshop is at: 160 Finchdene Square, Unit 11, Scarborough, M1X 1B2.

We don’t have room in our shop to keep a permanent demo unit there but we usually have 2-3 sauna builds going on at the same time so there is a good chance we have a fully built unit for you to come and check out.

We also have a 4 person sauna that was built for testing / using / and showing customers at 3 Hamilton Hall Drive, Markham.

If you want to see a demo, just send us a message and we can let you know if we have one of our latest builds available in our shop or if you should come to Markham.
