Maria Markova (director of development company "Cedar Manor"):

- Despite the fact that between the sauna and steam bath are many similarities, such as in the bath and sauna, a steam room, washing, recreation room, and the furnace-heater, the main difference lies in the steam mode.

The sauna supported high temperature - often from 100 ° C or higher and humidity at this low - in the range of 5-20%. The temperature is maintained at a stable level. Also, in order to breathe vapors into water, which splash on the stones in the sauna oven are added extracts of various plants such as eucalyptus or fir.

The bath temperature is usually not more than + 65 °... + 70 ° C, the humidity is 60-65%, which provides a more comfortable environment for the bathers.

At the same time we should not forget about the main props of the Russian bath - a broom, providing a great massage, and evaporation from the leaves strengthen the immune system and restore the nervous system.

The broom sauna, due to the high temperature, is not normally used since it leaves begin to dry and crumble.

Dmitry Filippov (Company "Traditional carpentry technology" expert):

- Sauna - a small steam room with metal stove stones open, dry air and uniform heating of the entire room to high temperatures.

Russian bath - it is:

• Large steam with a high ceiling;
• Wood oven stones arranged inside and lined with brick or stone;
• Moist air at a temperature of 60-80 degrees;
• Soft steam and the temperature difference from floor and ceiling.

It is important to know that in the Russian bath - in contrast to the sauna stones are placed inside the oven, with the oven door is always closed, and open it only when they want succumb to the park, for this splashing water on the stones. Because of this, much longer keeps a constant temperature in the steam room.

Another important component of the sauna - is the presence of the pool, in which bathers occasionally dipped for maximum health effect caused by an abrupt change of temperature.

Smoke sauna

Many people have heard the expression - steamed in black and bathe in white. But what is the essence of these methods, and whether there is an advantage of one species over another bath?

So,

• Smoke sauna differs from bath in a white the lack of a chimney. Thus, the entire heat of the furnace is first lifted to the ceiling, and then, in process of cooling, descends and then exits outside through the advance made aperture in the ceiling or wall.
• IN bath in white, Is arranged above the oven brick arch to the pipe, which provides an output to the outside through the ceiling of smoke.

When choosing how to bath the device should be remembered that in a black wall of the bath warm up much faster and stronger than the walls of the bath-and-white. This means that a warm bath takes less wood or other materials used for protopki furnace. The bath is in the white heat of the primary appears only when the stones in the oven start to splash water and, therefore, it is necessary to melt it for five or six hours before bath procedures.

Evgeny-M. (User FORUMHOUSE):

- smoke sauna or savusauna is traditional for Russian, and for the Finnish people. Black Bath is good because it can choose absolutely any hover mode - from 40 to 100 degrees! And as the saying goes, traditionally, in the bath in a black wash own sweat, broom, its foliage and ash lye. A soft rinsed with rain water.

can formulate general requirements for washroom facilities as follows:

• Tiled walls and floor. It is easy to wash and so cleaner in the room;
• Warm lager;
• Warm, and therefore well warmed floor;
• Hot and cold water. Moreover, it should be remembered that the bath furnace is not designed to heat water for a shower. To do this, carry out individual communication;
• Massage or rain shower;
• Electrical facilities.

bath placement on site, to the size and material requirements

Despite the fact that the baths of antiquity preferred to build on the banks of rivers and lakes, the modern reality dictates its own requirements. So where do you start when the device bath? The answer is - a choice of a place!

Dmitry Filippov(Company "Traditional carpentry technology" expert):

– As a rule, small bath set in the far corner of the house from the site, which is good from the point of view of fire safety and to create privacy for the bath treatment. Basic room - a bath, soap and rest room. Their location and size, affect the landscape and the number of visitors.

Russian bath requires a comfortable and unhurried rhythm guy. A shelf made of aspen logs (which is known for its property of "take" human negative energy), or limes (she at high temperatures and does not burn when heated emits light pleasant scent), are helping to create a favorable health microclimate.

As for the features of the steam room, it is worth noting that it is not sitting in a Russian bath and lie on benches. Temperature conditions in the steam is formed horizontally. the temperature drop near the floor and ceiling is significant. Therefore, steam room should be comfortable for lying soaring, that is of sufficient length and width, and height for bathers.

Maria Markova (director of development company "Cedar Manor"):

- With regard to the height of the ceiling, it should be noted that in the Russian bath, unlike saunas, ceilings made more than two meters. This feature is due to the fact that in Russian bath is located on the ceiling container for hot steam. Due to the lack of ventilation, steam ventilate through the door, so should the design baths provided that the door of the steam does not come out in the washing station, where humid air accumulates.

It is believed that one of the best materials for wall and ceiling of the steam room is a dry natural tree. For example, cedar - ideal for those who love the smell of pine. Its rich pine scent reminiscent of a real forest. The general rule of selecting a material for finishing the pair, should be excluded timber having a resinous stains - they can cause burns.

When it comes to the size of the room for the sauna, you can rely on many years of experience of our northern neighbors. user forum Evgeny-M It recommends the construction of a bath adhere to the following values ​​taken in Finland:

• The size of the pair of at least 2.5 to 3 meters plus pomyvochnaya, dressing, veranda.
• Height - so that it was comfortable to sit on the top shelf.
• Brick furnace measuring 70 by 80 cm. Cushion it is put under a 30 cm thick reinforced concrete reinforcement, the size of 1 to 1.1 m. The height to the ceiling stones from the top 1.2m.
• The height of the furnace of 70 cm.
• Chimney cap from 35 to 35 and 35 to 50 cm.
• The upper edge of the door opening at the height of the regiment.
• Shelves at a height just above the stove or in the 5-10 cm. Pole for parks feet above the shelves 30 cm.

And as the wood for the shelves is perfect massive birch board.

Evgeny-M (User FORUMHOUSE):

- Stay on this board is very comfortable, even very dimensional people. Warming it gently, and the heat is given to the body and back.

Sufficient clearance between the wall and the shelf - it is important to warm the back and waist. A shop and trim should not be in contact with the floor tiles.

With regard to systems engineering, the design of the bath should be used the following approach: Bath is the same house, only with steam and washing.

But there are some nuances.

Dmitry Kozlitin ( Company CEO of Golden Phoenix ):

- The steam heating is not required. In pomyvochnaya, for comfort, you should mount the floor heating or radiators or convectors. The washroom facilities are usually installed shower or just a head, but then there is the need of facing walls tiled. As additional options - a bucket for pouring and barrel-baptismal font, made of larch or oak. The rest of the layout of utility networks is the same as in an ordinary house and.

On the tiles in the steam room should be placed wooden planks that allow you to walk through the natural wood floor, and in the case of cleaning the flooring can be raised.

But little steam to heat, the heat still need to keep, for example, the paste over the inside - a trim, wall aluminum bath foil, which will turn into a kind of thermos bath, and as a heater can be used slabs of stone wool. Nor should forget about the proper drainage device in the bath, which when mounting the floor necessary to sustain a small bias towards the sewage sludge that displays the dirty water into the drain well.

The stove

As it is well known bath furnace - is the foundation of any bath. And, despite the fact that traditionally put bannuyu oven made of brick, all the more common metal stoves. But why?

Dmitry Kozlitin ( Company CEO of Golden Phoenix ):

- Russian classic bath furnace brick installation meant, but it should be remembered that for such a furnace must be heavy make a separate foundation, and for the construction of the furnace it is necessary to invite an experienced stove-maker, which will lead to additional expenditure. Also, the average time protopki brick furnace will comprise from two to five hours.

Metal furnace unlike the brick quickly goes on the warm-up mode, allowing you to take a bathhouse after work, without wasting time waiting for when the oven will enter the operating mode. A variety of designs to select a ready-made solution. For example, it fits perfectly into the design of a modern bath, stove with a glass furnace, which looks like a fireplace. But it should be remembered that because of the low heat capacity of the metal, the metal furnace cools rapidly.

When installing the furnace should be guided by measures of fire safety, namely:

• Oven safe distance from the wooden structures.
• The apparatus of protective apron made of bricks or talkohlorida.

Summarizing it can be said that the abundance of modern materials used in the construction of a bath from the aerated concrete blocks, frame structures and finishing natural wood, allow to build a real soul is in your bath taste!
