Roger Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I am in the middle of building a 8x12 shed with a center wall for a garden shed/sauna combination. I have a friend who will get me an electric sauna stove and then I can get 220V power out there and 110V for lights at a cost of about 800-1100 bucks. Or I was thinking of possibly going the wood fired stove direction and battery powered lights and save the 400 bucks for wiring for now? Is there a difference in the feel of the heat? I know there will be a difference in the control and effort involved but I think I can deal with that for the more natural smell and if there is a different more natural feel of the heat? Come on you sauna conisuers fill me in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Spa Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I couldn't imagine having to go lite a fire and stoke it till the sauna gets hot...EVERY time. Not to mention trying to control the temp...Though, at the rate I actually USE my sauna? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnepr Dave Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Heat is heat, the source doesn't make any difference in the feel. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be small enough and insulated enough that the stove I will be getting should be able to heat it and maintain it with one fill for one sit. I hope. In other words stoke it on sauna night after work and it will be ready when I am and last till I am done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
