  • Page 2 Preparing the base. A full gravel pad as shown here, or individual gravel pads for each cradle (see picture, front page): Clear loose vegetation and soil, level the ground with a slight slope for drainage, and fill the area with 2-4” of crushed limestone gravel.
  • Page 3 Fill the cradles with enough staves to hold the middle section with the door, and the corresponding back middle section. Make sure there are no gaps between the edges of the staves. (tap together with mallet) A half-inch hole was bored for drainage just inside the walls on the lower special stave.
  • Page 4 Fasten the half-moon side wall segments to the door frame with supplied 2½” screws into pre- drilled holes at the top and bottom. The tops of the various wall sections are marked with A, B, C, or D at the top to ensure that they are properly matched.
  • Page 5 all the way to the line. The line is just a guide to keep the round shape. Leave as much of a gap as possible. This will make it easier to fit in the last staves at the top and shape the barrel. The gaps are to ensure that instead of squeezing the end walls, all of the force of the bands will be directed to pressing the edges of the staves...
  • Page 6 This is how the sauna normally looks at this stage. The barrel will be adjusted later with a rubber mallet to eliminate this hump. First, the bands must be put on around the sauna and the tightening hardware assembled. Put them on just snug but do not tighten them yet.
  • Page 7 Bump the bands inward where necessary, hitting on the bands if possible. Even up the ends of the staves from the front and back too. IMPORTNT: After adjusting the staves, (before tightening up the bands), your barrel should look like the picture to the left;...
  • Page 8 Flat Floor option: (included with Signature Contoured Benches option) Place the fully assembled flat floor in the sauna, and make sure it is level. It is not necessary to secure it with screws. The benches will hold it in place. Signature Bench Assembly.
  • Page 9 Signature Bench Assembly. – Sauna Chambre Benches The sauna chambre benches are a little different than the small porch seats. They have supports at each end for the seat assembly to rest on. Join the bench supports at the top of the bench front by their square ends with two Kreg screws.
  • Page 10 To fasten the curved bench in the dome, first attach a support bracket to the dome-end of both benches with three 2½” deck screws each. Lay down the curved dome bench and fasten it to the support brackets with 2½” deck screws. (2 places per side) Fasten the Dome Bench Support to the bottom of the Dome Bench.
  • Page 11 The Head / Back Rests can be placed anywhere they are needed. The door handle usually goes in the centre of the door (left) and the Towel Bar is made to go on the inside of the door (below) but can be installed lower or higher as desired.
  • Page 12 ADJUSTING BARREL SIZE (CIRCUMFERENCE) It is important to realize that the sauna’s outer barrel “cylinder” (assembly of the sauna barrel “staves”) needs to “float” around the circular end walls when fully assembled and the straps tightened, with a space between the circular end walls and the barrel cylinder.
