See Why Our Saunas Are the Talk of the Town

There are lots of reasons to buy barrel saunas rather than other types for your home or business – they look great, they function better than other types of saunas and they have a vibe you just can’t get with an infrared sauna or even a traditional indoor sauna. 

We'll talk about why they're shaped like barrels, how they work, what makes them so great, and more!

Outdoor Thermory Barrel Sauna

Why Is It Shaped Like A Barrel? 

You've probably noticed that the barrel sauna is shaped…like a barrel.  This shape helps with more than just how they look: it's functional as well!

The barrel shape allows the wood to adequately heat up to do what it does best: heat you up. The heat from the sauna heater goes up and circles around the inside of the barrel instead of flowing out, or gathering at the top.

The shape also provides an even amount of heat to the person inside, and doesn’t create any hot or cold spots as you might get in some other saunas.

Shapes like squares and rectangles can't do this as evenly, but the barrel shape is built specifically to ensure even heat throughout.

This makes heating a barrel sauna faster and more efficient than other traditional saunas with wasted space.

The shape also adds a beautiful structure to your property that will intrigue your guests and neighbors and allow you to bask in peaceful surroundings.

How Do Barrel Saunas Work? 

A barrel sauna is heated by a sauna heater, of which there are a few types.

Barrel saunas can really be heated by any type of heating element you want, whether it be electricity, gas, or a wood stove.  Most people go with an electric sauna heater, but there are a lot of hardcore sauna purists out there who just can’t escape a crackling wood burning stove in their sauna during the winter months. 

Aside from the sauna heater, your barrel sauna will be composed of a few other parts, including wood staves. 

Barrel saunas are usually made with wooden staves, just like a wine or whiskey barrel, and the heating source is usually found at one end of the sauna. As the sauna heater starts cranking up it heats the air inside the sauna, as well as the wood in the sauna, including the staves.

What Makes Barrel Saunas So Great? 

Many people prefer barrel saunas over other types of saunas because they feel so cozy, often times have large panoramic windows, and look amazing tucked away in the yard, especially after a big snow storm. 

You can buy barrel saunas made from all kinds of wood.  But keep in mind different types of wood provide different levels of heat retention.  Cedar and Aspen wood (especially thermally treated Aspen wood) will keep you warm for longer than something like hemlock or pine, which means that choosing these options over other woods will allow you to stay in the barrel sauna longer without having to get back up and reheat things!  

It's also worth mentioning that the wood used in barrel saunas will actually retain its natural smell even after years of use. 

If you're considering buying a sauna for your property but don't want the eyesore of another traditional wood sauna, barrel saunas are an ideal choice!

Why Should I Buy A Barrel Sauna? 

If you're wondering why you should choose a barrel sauna over other types, the answer is simple. 

They combine all of the benefits of other types of saunas with a modern twist so that you can enjoy them from the comfort and privacy of your own home without anyone else being around!

Barrel saunas show up us pre-assembled kits that are easy to put together, and actually pretty fun to construct!

Not only that, but compared to other types of saunas, they are much easier to operate and maintain.

Barrel saunas are a great addition to your property or cabin, especially if you're looking for a versatile sauna that can be used outdoors.

If you have incredible scenery surrounding your property, a barrel sauna would be a great choice since you can enjoy the beauty of your surroundings while relaxing in your all-natural sauna.  But those aren’t the only reasons to get a backyard barrel sauna.
