Really good video. I too am making my own saunda now, approx 5m3 in volume. I plan to use a 6KW Helo heater and have a glass door much the same as yours. What wood did you use for the walls / ceilings and benches. I also hear I need to fit air inlets and a sperate outlet? Is that right?

@rjhand99 The wood is Ash. You don't want to choose wood with sap, like a pine tree. Sap + heat = sticky and messy. Yes, separate outlets are standard and good. Inlet should be low. I used the gap under my glass door and close to the heater. Outlet should be high and on opposite side if possible. My outlet is not ideal with it positioned on the same side as inlet but any other way was too much work.

@oksanenjason - City does not allow me to build on the sidewalk.
