Oval Sauna

Oval Saunas – Elegant Form with Efficient Functionality

Oval saunas combine the best of barrel and cabin designs: curved at the sides yet elongated in the center, they offer both aesthetics and interior flexibility. With their smooth lines and balanced shape, oval saunas bring efficient heating and visual appeal to your garden spa setup.

Advantages of Oval Saunas

• Balanced air circulation – the gentle curvature ensures smooth heat flow and minimizes hot or cold zones.

• Greater interior length – more usable floor space compared to barrel saunas, allowing more comfortable seating configurations.

• Stylish silhouette – the elegant, elongated form enhances garden architecture and gives a premium look.

• Weather performance – curved sides help shed water and snow, contributing to durability in Irish climates.

• Good balance of insulation & aesthetics – flat ceiling sections can help with installing lighting or fans while curved walls reduce heat loss.

Considerations When Selecting an Oval Sauna

• Wall thickness & materials – opt for robust wood types like thermowood, with sufficient plank thickness for heat retention.

• Heater selection – electric heaters for ease or wood-burning stoves for traditional ambiance.

• Bench layout – take advantage of elongated space to design double-level or extended benches.

• Ventilation & airflow – proper vents and air circulation are essential to maintain comfort and freshness.

• Doors & windows – carefully positioned glazing or door orientation can maximize light and view without sacrificing insulation.
