Sauna

Wood

A Drop sauna is a perfect addition to both summer cottages and home patios, just like other iconic Drop products. This turnkey outdoor sauna is ready to transform your space effortlessly. All it takes is an electrician and a flat spot to set it up.

You can choose the sauna either with a convenient electric heater or with a wood-burning stove for your ultimate relaxation.

Instructions and warrant ›

 

• The water ceiling must be inspected regularly at least once a year and dirt and impurities must be removed

• Windows and doors should be cleaned regularly

• Ventilation and drying of the interior must be taken care of after use

• The platforms and the floor should be dried from water with a spatula or something similar after each use

• It is recommended to use seat covers

• The inner surfaces should be cleaned regularly and the condition of the silicones should be checked. Silicones must be renewed at least every 2 years

• The exterior surfaces of the sauna are recommended to be re-treated according to Teknos' instructions with a water-based cleaning agent https://www.teknos.com/fi-FI/tuotteet/woodex-aqua-classic/

 when the surface looks worn and the treatment agent comes off when brushing the surface, e.g. with a root brush. Surfaces exposed to the sun wear out faster than shaded surfaces and the surface lives longer. Before processing, loose matter, dirt and dust are removed from the surface with a steel or root brush. After this, it is recommended to wash before re-treatment. Surfaces can be service painted with Teknos water- and solvent-thinned sealants, as well as cover protectors and house paints.

• The inner surfaces are recommended to be treated again in accordance with Tikkurila's instructions (below) when the surface has worn so that the water-repellent property has worn off and the surface begins to absorb moisture. Before the maintenance treatment, it is recommended to wash / sand the old substance so that the substance can be absorbed into the treated wood.

How is the Drop pool emptied?

Electrically heated pools are emptied with a pump.

 

Make sure that there are no embers left in the fireplace before emptying the pool. Empty the fireplace of ashes before emptying the pool of water. The stove must also be emptied of water by using its own outlet valve.

 

N.B.! If you use chemicals in the pool water, the water must be led to the sewage system!

 
Where should I place the Drop pool and what kind of a foundation does it need?

The placement of the pool should be planned as carefully as possible to ensure comfort of use and safety. Place the pool in an open area, if possible. Otherwise, leaves and other dirt falling from trees will easily end up in the pool water during bathing. Consider your neighbours if you live in a densely populated area.

 

The pool must be installed and rely on its framework. The pool should not rest on the upper edge, and the upper edge should not rest on the patio, for example. The base functions as a capillary break between the earth and the frame. The foundation must be even, load-bearing and horizontal. The best foundation is concrete, gravel, wood or some other hard foundation material. The foundation must endure a weight of 2,500 kg without sinking or changing. In addition, consider the impact of frozen ground when planning the foundation.

 

The placement of each pool must be planned according to situation and place. The blueprints are indicative examples of installation.
How is the Drop delivered?

The pool is delivered upright by a lorry to the delivery address provided by the customer or as close to the delivery address as possible. The driver will lower the package with a pallet jack. The pool package is upright on top of a pallet.

 

The pool package has a freight weight of approximately 135–300 kg, depending on the extra features.
How is the Drop pool filled with water? How much water fits in the pool?

The Drop pool does not need a separate water connection as it can be filled with, for example, a garden hose.

The pool’s capacity is 1,830 L. In practice, only 1,000-1,500 is needed to fill the pool.
