How GossTech Constructs a Sauna in Kakamega

Professional sauna construction requires careful attention to heat retention, insulation, ventilation, timber selection, electrical systems and interior design.

1. Site Assessment

GossTech first assesses the proposed sauna location.

The assessment considers:

  • Available room dimensions
  • Ceiling height
  • Wall construction
  • Floor condition
  • Electrical supply
  • Ventilation possibilities
  • Door location
  • Heater location
  • Bench arrangement
  • Equipment access
  • Maintenance access

2. Measurements and Design

The sauna is designed according to the available space and intended number of users.

The design determines:

  • Room dimensions
  • Number and arrangement of benches
  • Heater size
  • Heater position
  • Door position
  • Lighting
  • Ventilation
  • Insulation requirements
  • Timber requirements
  • Temperature-control location

A small home sauna requires a different design from a commercial sauna serving hotel or gym clients.

3. Structural Preparation

The room is prepared before the interior timber lining is installed.

This may involve:

  • Wall framing
  • Ceiling framing
  • Floor preparation
  • Electrical conduits
  • Ventilation openings
  • Door-frame preparation
  • Heater mounting provisions

4. Thermal Insulation

Proper insulation is essential for maintaining sauna temperature.

Suitable insulation can help:

  • Reduce heat loss
  • Improve heating efficiency
  • Maintain stable temperatures
  • Improve comfort
  • Reduce unnecessary energy consumption

Mineral wool and other appropriate heat-resistant insulation systems may be used according to the project design.

5. Vapour Control

A suitable vapour-control layer is incorporated where required.

This helps manage moisture and protect the surrounding building structure.

6. Interior Timber Installation

The walls and ceiling are lined with appropriate sauna-grade timber.

Depending on the project, options can include:

  • Cedar
  • Aspen
  • Spruce
  • Pine
  • Other suitable heat-resistant timber

The final timber selection depends on availability, appearance, budget and intended use.

7. Sauna Bench Construction

GossTech can construct:

  • Single-level benches
  • Two-level benches
  • L-shaped benches
  • Corner benches
  • Multi-user commercial benches

The bench arrangement is designed around room dimensions and user capacity.

8. Sauna Door Installation

A suitable sauna door is installed according to the room design.

Door selection considers:

  • Heat exposure
  • Moisture
  • Safety
  • Opening direction
  • Room layout
  • Appearance

9. Sauna Heater Installation

The heater is selected according to the sauna volume and intended use.

Possible options include:

  • Electric sauna heaters
  • Heater-and-stone systems
  • Commercial sauna heaters
  • Digital temperature-controlled systems

Electrical installation should use appropriately rated circuits and protective devices.


How GossTech Constructs a Steam Room in Kakamega

Steam rooms require specialised waterproofing and moisture management because the room is exposed to high humidity and condensation.

1. Room Assessment

  • Ceiling
  • Water supply
  • Drainage
  • Electrical supply
  • Generator location
  • Steam outlet position
  • Ventilation

2. Waterproofing

Waterproofing is one of the most important stages of steam-room construction.

Walls, floors and other exposed areas are prepared using suitable waterproofing systems.

Good drainage helps reduce:

  • Standing water
  • Moisture accumulation
  • Slippery conditions
  • Potential water damage

4. Moisture-Resistant Wall Construction

Steam rooms require suitable moisture-resistant substrates.

Depending on the design, construction may include:

  • Cement boards
  • Waterproofing membranes
  • Mortar
  • Tiles
  • Waterproof coatings
  • Appropriate sealants

5. Steam Generator Installation

The steam generator is selected according to the room volume.

Installation considers:

  • Generator capacity
  • Water supply
  • Electrical requirements
  • Drainage
  • Steam-pipe routing
  • Maintenance access
  • Generator location

6. Steam Outlet Installation

The steam outlet is positioned to distribute steam effectively while reducing direct exposure to users.

7. Interior Finishing

Steam rooms can be finished with suitable moisture-resistant tiles.

Finishing may include:

  • Wall tiles
  • Floor tiles
  • Decorative tiles
  • Waterproof grout
  • Sealants
  • Edging and trims

8. Built-In Seating

GossTech can construct custom steam-room seating using suitable moisture-resistant construction systems.

Options include:

  • Straight benches
  • Corner seating
  • L-shaped benches
  • Multi-level seating

9. Ceiling Construction

The ceiling is designed with condensation management in mind.

The final ceiling design depends on the room size, structure and overall aesthetic.
