Prefabricated saunas offer complete, stand alone, self-contained saunas that are made segment by segment with easy and quick installation in mind and may be set up wherever any open space is available. Prefab saunas are however best kept in a hard surfaced waterproof floor that is vinyl, concrete or tile. They contain all the interior and exterior segments and may be installed by anyone with little engineering skill. Some prefabricated saunas come with exclusive interlocking system inside each of the panels that makes it yet even easier to install. The electrical hook ups of prefab saunas are simple since they have electrical conduits sealed within the walls while the optional wall controls are pre-mounted.

Prefabricated saunas are shipped to the customer with all components/parts like pre-built, insulated wall and ceiling panels, pre-hung glass door with chrome handles and fasteners, assembled benches, assembled headrests for upper benches, trim for exterior; heaters for prefabricated saunas as per the customer needs, stones or rocks depending on the size of the units, interlocking flooring boards for walking area, wall lights, light switch, vents and nails.

Prefab home saunas are available in both the Dry and Wet variety. While installing the Dry saunas pose very little or no problem, the Wet prefabricated saunas need some level of knowledge. So you may want to get some professional help for this type of prefabricated saunas. Where can you go wrong?

The steam generator and accessories of wet saunas need to be carefully handled. These units need to be located at a distance of 8 to 10 feet from Wet prefabricated saunas. Besides, prefabricated saunas should not be placed outdoors. They cannot be exposed to extreme climatic variations. Also important is to check the water and steam connections going in and out of the sauna and the steam generator. There can be plumbing problems in prefabricated saunas, particularly those that are installed in a heavily carpeted lounge where the steam is produced by fine spray of water on heated rocks and the nearest drainage outlet is far away.

If you are planning to buy a prefab sauna, you need to know about these problems that you may face later and how to overcome them.
