Precut Saunas – Total Flexibility in a
Do-It-Yourself Kit
Precut saunas are a great way for a do-it-yourself
home renovator or contractor to build a sauna without having to build
entirely from scratch. These material kits come with all the major
components pre-cut and allow for total flexibility as far as the shape and
size of room is concerned. You can buy a kit that is made for a specific
size room or you can custom order the material package to work it into any
available area such as the bathroom, bedroom, basement, patio or garage. By
doing most of the work yourself you can save some serious money.
The terms “pre-cut” and “pre-built” are often confusing for buyers. A precut
do-it-yourself sauna kit contains all the material needed for the inside of
the sauna. These kits contain tongue-and-groove boards or paneling for the
inside walls, benches, the heater and heater guard, duck floor boards, the
door, vent and all necessary hardware for doing it yourself. If there is no
existing room available, an insulated frame has to be constructed before
installation of the sauna.
Pre-built modular saunas are
freestanding rooms that do not require building a frame or an existing room.
These kits contain pre-built and pre-fitted wall and ceiling panels and are
very easy to put up by yourself. The sauna door is pre-hung, benches are
pre-assembled and the heater is appropriately sized for its application.
Expect to pay more for these prefabricated home
saunas than with a precut do-it-yourself kit.
The installation of a precut
sauna kit requires on average 2 – 3 days depending on your skill level
and how much of the work you will be doing yourself. The most difficult part
will be the installation of the door. Pre-hung doors are available for some
of these pre-cut kits as an option. Pre-built or modular do-it-yourself kits
can be assembled in a few hours and require only low skill levels. A
licensed electrician is required to hook up the heater and light fixtures.
