Bases for outdoor saunas
IMPORTANT: First note that the exterior size of our prefab modular saunas is 8″ wider and deeper than the size in the title. For example, a 5×7′ outdoor home sauna kit footprint measures 5’8′ x 7’8″.
See our gallery of suitable sauna bases for our outdoor saunas
Also please see our Video: Build Paver Base | Outdoor Sauna Kit
The outdoor modular sauna kit will sit well on any of these bases:
- Pour a concrete slab. Leave concrete surface bare or lay tile over the top.
- Patio pavers: Tamp down gravel and lay patio pavers over.
- Gravel with pressure treated wood works well also. In fact, if you know you will be relocating your sauna, it’s even easier to bring your base with you
- If building on a wood deck (with air gaps between the slats) , then it’ll require a floor tray for insulation. Then put tile or sheet vinyl on the plywood for a water proof surface.
