Tips for cleaning the sauna

We Finns are known as a sauna nation, yet sauna cleaning and maintenance can still be overlooked. Both home and cottage sauna benches should be thoroughly cleaned at least once a year—and what better way to start a sauna session than on fresh, clean benches. Here you’ll find tips for deep cleaning your sauna. By following these steps, you’ll enjoy steam in a clean and refreshing sauna.

1. Start cleaning the sauna from the benches

Begin cleaning the sauna by removing the bench seats if they are detachable.

2. Clean the stove and replace stones if needed

Wash the stove. Disconnect it from the power supply if needed. Remove the stones, wash them, and let them dry. If they haven’t been replaced in a while, now might be a good time.

3. Sweep the sauna thoroughly

Sweep the entire sauna before washing with water. Also brush the ceiling and walls.

4. Start the wash

Wash the benches and walls. Begin with warm water to open the wood grain and loosen dirt. Moisten the benches with cleaning solution and let it sit for about ten minutes.

Use a soft brush or a special bench scrubber to scrub along the grain of the wood. Remember to clean the underside of the benches at least once a year.

5. Rinse

Rinse thoroughly and finish with cold water to close the wood grain.

6. Dry the sauna

Ventilate and dry the sauna. You can use low heat from the stove to help it dry, but avoid drying too fast to prevent cracking of the wood.

7. Oil the benches

Treat the dry benches with paraffin oil. A bit of warmth helps with absorption, but make sure the oil has fully absorbed before using the sauna for bathing.

8. Clean the floor

Finally, clean the floor drain and the floor surfaces.

Choose the right cleaning agent for the sauna

You can use both alkaline and acidic cleaners for sauna washrooms. Do not use bleach, as it may absorb into the wood and later release fumes in sauna heat.

For cleaning benches, choose a product with a pH above 7. Alkaline cleaners remove grease from the benches.

Floor and wall surfaces often need acidic cleaners due to lime deposits. Start by wetting the tiles with lukewarm water to protect grout from the acidic cleaner.

Delivery Methods and Costs

Delivery costs include mailing- and packing costs. We will present an estimate of the delivery cost based on the primary shipping method. Detailed delivery costs are presented after you have chosen payment- and shipping methods. Shipping methods available depend on the content of your shopping cart. You can choose the most suitable shipping method in the checkout, where the precise shipping cost is presented.

Delivery Time

Common delivery times to Finland vary between 1-3 working days, depending on the order and shipping method. If you are ordering outside of Finland, you can see the delivery time estimate in the checkout after choosing a country, attached to the available shipping methods.

Example 1:

Under all the items in your shopping cart is a text "In stock". In this case your delivery will be shipped in the same day, if the order is places before 3 p.m. The order will reach the postal service haul if the order is placed before 1 p.m.

Example 2:

There are items in your cart that are "In stock", but there are also items that have longer delivery times. For example, there might be info "will be shipped in 2-3 days". In this case, the product is arriving to our stock according to the estimate or we will order it immediately from the supplier after we receive your order. Estimate "will be shipped in 2-3 days" is an estimate of the delivery time from the supplier to us.

Your order will be shipped immediately after the items missing from our stock have arrived to us. If there is deviation from the estimate, we will always notify you by email.

In some cases, the process may be following: the items that we have in stock will be shipped immediately and items out of stock will be shipped afterwards.

Example 3:

You are ordering an item that has info "will be shipped in 1-2 days". In these cases the product is arriving to our stock in 1-2 days or alternatively the item can be delivered from the supplier's stock. In this case your order will usually be shipped in the same day, but we use estimate "will be shipped in 1-2 days" for good measure.
