The scents and sounds of wood burning saunas recreate a traditional atmosphere that makes your sweating session truly memorable. This kind of stove imbues a sauna with an intimate feel, with sights, sounds, and a lingering aroma that brings relaxation to a whole new level.

However, you get the sense of intimacy when you burn wood in the stove. But these burners are in fact more suited to larger, outdoor saunas. It is ideally to use them in saunas that are difficult to heat by other means, such as when there is no suitable supply of electricity. As wood-burning stoves produce a heat that is dispersed evenly throughout a sauna, they allow for the efficient circulation of air, creating an atmosphere that is extremely pleasant.

But this type of stove is not suitable for use in all locations. Unfortunately, they are not the best choice for smaller saunas, or those located indoors. This is because safety precautions must be taken before a wood burning stove can be installed in a sauna built completely out of wooden panels, to prevent setting fire to walls or floor. Moreover, the additional heat protection is required in this setup. It can increase the price of adding a wood-burning stove prohibitively. That's why, you have to be sure to factor in these possible extra expenses before you decide that these types of stoves are for you.
