5 Common Mistakes to Avoid When Choosing Your Sauna

Buying a sauna is an exciting step toward a more mindful lifestyle and deeper home relaxation. Yet many people unknowingly make decisions that lead to long-term compromises in experience, value, or functionality.

Here are the 5 most common mistakes to avoid if you're aiming for a truly year-round wellness experience.

1. Not Making the Most of Available Space

Many people limit their options from the start because they don't recognize the full potential of the space. A prefabricated cabin rarely fits perfectly, it’s often either too large or leaves unused corners behind. At iSauna, we design your sauna house with millimeter precision so that every square centimeter serves both function and experience.

2. Not Thinking in Terms of a Complete Solution

A sauna house is not just a sauna. Mechanical systems, cladding, shading, lighting, and jacuzzi all these elements are interconnected. At iSauna, more than 8–10 trades work together in harmony from design to turnkey implementation, and we don’t walk away after handover. For us, complexity means safety, reliability, and a truly enjoyable wellness experience.

3. Planning Only for One Season

Many people plan their sauna for winter use only. But a well-designed wellness house can be used all year round. In summer: jacuzzi, grill terrace, relaxation zone. In winter: a cozy sauna retreat. Already during the planning phase, we consider orientation, shading, and microclimate to ensure the space becomes more than seasonal it becomes a lifestyle.

4. Only Considering the Classic Finnish Sauna

The Finnish sauna is excellent but not ideal for everyone. Infrared saunas offer gentle, deep-penetrating heat, while the lower-temperature bio sauna combined with steam provides a more pleasant experience for a wider range of users including children and the elderly. With iSauna’s unique combination solutions, everyone can find their ideal thermal experience.

5. Forgetting the Needs of the Entire Family

A common mistake is designing only with adults in mind. A well-planned sauna house can serve all age groups: A safe relaxation area for kids, a sauna zone for parents, and infrared or bio sauna options for older family members. iSauna’s goal is to create a space where everyone feels at home.

+1 Insight: Not Asking for Expert Advice Early Enough

The biggest mistake? Waiting too long to seek guidance. An early consultation allows you to explore the production process, see the materials in person, and truly understand the quality we offer. A visit to our manufactory is more than an inspection it’s the first step toward embracing a more conscious way of living.
