Detailed Product Description

A log cabin made from Kelo wood is surely the ultimate Finnish sauna.

Kelo comes from forests within the Arctic Circle the tree grows for between 100-300 years, then dies; it remains standing for the same period of time while all its branches and bark fall off and its sap drains away into the ground. The result is a super hard and dry wood, with exactly the right properties for traditional Finnish sauna.

Kelo log cabins are unique to Finnish Lapland, where they are hand-built by skilled craftsmen. Each cabin has its own character, and once in place will almost certainly survive longer than an equivalent brick structure.

The two layouts shown are examples of outdoor log cabin layouts, however Leisure sales can supply a cabin to suit your specific requirements, and Kelo wood can also be used to create an indoor sauna cabin.

To fit a Garden or Log Cabin sauna you will require:

• A solid level base slab or decking
• Electrical supply to suit 8kW heater and lighting (TIMO and MIKA)
• Water supply and drainage - if you add a shower (MIKA only)
• Suitable covering for the roof - Felt or Cedar shingles, etc
• Preservative for the exterior walls
