Finishing Continued; Vents
Sauna rooms need ventilation for comfortable breathing and maintaining healthy sauna woods. There should be a lower intake vent near the sauna heater and an outlet vent on the opposite wall about 1/3 height up from the floor. In some custom sauna designs, a 1/2" gap under the door will work for fresh air inlet. Proper venting also allows just enough air movement to help evaporate moisture during cool down.
Vents
