At this size a sauna stops being a “hot box” and becomes a pavilion. U-shaped two-tier benches seat eight without crowding, the 9 kW heater brings the 17 m³ volume up in ±40 minutes, and adjustable wooden ventilation grilles keep the air fresh through long sessions.
We treat the outside just as seriously: a light concrete foundation, local bengkirai decking that shrugs off rain (the one place we use local hardwood — outside, never inside), an overhanging roof to shield the facade from Medan downpours, and a small terrace for cooling off between rounds. The full package includes a dedicated electrical run from the main house.
