At the risk of boring the average reader here, I'll go into the whole philosophy of Christensen Saunas.  We first build a solid frame structure that has a good roof and will set on treated skids.  By building sheds , screen houses, cabins, and saunas this way for fifty years, we know that this is the only way to keep a small building in good shape. Frost heaving will damage almost all foundations when not heated continuous during the coldest months.  A very stiff building can float on top the ground and keep in good condition though the season.  Concrete slabs can break and posts can heave, even a home basement will get damaged if not heated.  Our building are built to be stiff, all corner connections are overlapped or notched together. All boards are full length from end to end, no joints even behind the partitions, both the walls and the ceiling. The heat from our Blueberry stove is great. With the heavy steel and round firebox, the wrap around of rock mass adds long lasting steam while reducing heat loss outwards to the walls, safer.  A outside feed stove saves the oxygen inside for you, and keep your sauna cleaner. Thick insulation holds the heat as well and greatly reduces the wood used wood used.  The cedar decking floor and all benches have tiny gaps to allow all the water to drain on through to the ground below. All framing below is treated wood.  The wood floor also feels warmer on the feet than concrete, and drains will not freeze. We take all this and finish it with premium western red cedar and add all the good stuff like dry stacked stonework, ceramic tile under the stove, shelves, hooks, candle window , homemade door with window, sauna sign, finished overhangs and cedar deck, you have the whole package of the best sauna you can buy.
