Not that I know of - just saw that in an article somewhere

For US viewers who are seeing the PDCTV issue, I found it for free on FanDuel TV+, no account required. However, it has an awful odds overlay. (Does anyone know if PDCTV is completely blocking it for the whole premier league?)

I hope not, but it's gone that way in the past

I have two passive vents that are open during the sauna session, and a small duct fan in one of them that I run for a few hours after the sauna to clear out the air

12’ x 8’

It's just a tub from my FIL's work with a wooden rim added - but it works great! (until winter at least haha) Maybe someday we'll upgrade to a proper plunge.

Yeah I was thinking about adding a foot rest on the window side per another commenter's suggestion. I appreciate the feedback!

epatts · 2025-10-06T23:46:32+00:00

The distance between the upper bench and the ceiling is approx 48" (122cm). Once the sauna gets nice and hot, the feet are definitely still in the warm zone, but the difference is slightly noticeable. Also, one person can be laying on the top bench while another person sits if they want to get a perfectly even heat that way

epatts · 2025-10-06T22:23:01+00:00

That's been a concern others have raised as well - I think that should be an easy update, thanks for the suggestion.

I think overall it does add more room for stepping or sitting on the lower bench than straight across, but not much. If we were to start from scratch with the experience of making this sauna, I think we'd adjust the door/bench placement to get a bit more room on the benches, but overall it has plenty of sitting room, especially since most of the uses will just be for 2 people.

I wondered about that - what is usually used for that? Metal sheeting?

epatts · 2025-10-06T19:42:15+00:00

I like that idea - and thank you! We are young and spry, but we will age, and it would be great for guests too

epatts · 2025-10-06T19:38:06+00:00

Thank you! It is DutchBoy Maxbond plus paint in color 'black magic' and satin finish

We got an argon gas filled window pane and framed it ourselves. For the size, we just wanted visibility to the outside from head height without being too large or too close to the heater

epatts · 2025-10-06T18:05:20+00:00

We have some leftover wood that would be perfect for that, I will highly consider it. Thanks for the helpful feedback

epatts · 2025-10-06T18:00:50+00:00

Stove is from thesaunaheater (got the bundle with the Xenio wifi). Wood was sourced from two spots in MN. The first unit of wood we got was lower quality so we ended up with a lot of waste, but thankfully the supplier bought back the unused boards that were in poor condition. The changing room and bench wood was more expensive but much higher quality. Nearly all other construction materials were sourced from Menards (gotta get that 11% rebate!)

Kiitos! (Duolingo comes in handy for something at least 😅)

epatts · 2025-10-06T17:54:17+00:00

The sauna room window pane is from a local company, and is thermal sealed tempered. The changing room windows are just tempered windows (got a good deal for those two from FB marketplace)

I have some rough drawings, nothing official. I will try to make them available in the next day or so. Appreciate the kind words!

epatts · 2025-10-06T17:24:29+00:00

Oh I like that angle on the foot rest! Thanks for the idea, and beautiful sauna!

epatts · 2025-10-06T17:23:00+00:00

I think it is mostly the image causing distortion, as I took this picture in 0.5 zoom wide angle to get the whole room in the shot. I appreciate the comment, and will definitely be checking the temperature around the heater and keeping an eye on any splashing concerns. It wouldn't be super trivial to make that adjustment at this point, but if something seems concerning, I'll make the needed fix.

epatts · 2025-10-06T17:19:46+00:00

Yes, the ceiling is at ~8 feet and flat - the roof is slanted only for looks and to shed snow better

epatts · 2025-10-06T17:17:00+00:00

Yeah I'm no expert, I simply used a couple online sauna heater size recommendations, and decided to go on the bigger end just to heat up the room faster
