LAVA GARDEN SAUNA
Notes for the planning permission, foundation,
anchorage, delivery and unloading
Planning permission
Before installing the garden sauna, make sure you enquire about whether planning
permission is required at your local planning authority (municipal oce, magistrate).
Youmay need this as permission is required above a certain room volume. This depends
on where you live exactly and is therefore handled dierently from country to country.
Check with your local planning authority (municipal oce, magistrate)
with respect to the building regulations and load standards.
Concrete foundation:
A solid concrete foundation is important for the durability as well as the safety of your
garden sauna.
We recommend having the foundation laid by a specialist.
It is the basis for a proper anchorage of your garden sauna. Only then can you ensure
that there will be no diculties with assembly and use.
There are several ways that you can lay the foundation for your garden sauna.

However, the two options below have proven to be the best in practice:
• Foundation slab (base plate)
• Strip foundation
Forbothtypes,afoundationthatisabsolutelyatandload-bearingmustbeensured.Onlythen
cantheassemblyoftheindividualmodulesbeensuredwithoutdicultiesandwithapreciset.
Once the concrete slab has been completed and dried out, we recommend torching it
with roong felt or torch-on felt in order to seal it completely.
Foundation slab (base plate)
A base plate ensures a frost-proof foundation for the garden sauna. Note that structural
steel mesh mats must be laid in the concrete (reinforced) in order to achieve maximum
stability and protect the slab from cracking.
Ground Concrete 15 cm thick
Gravel 15 cm thick PE-lm

Strip foundation
Depending on the structural requirements and local conditions, strip foundations can be
laid in dierent ways. There are two types of strip foundations:
• strip foundation - not reinforced
• strip foundation - reinforced
To make a frost-proof strip foundation, you must dig at least 80 cm deep into the ground.
The supporting walls of the garden sauna are then laid on the foundation strips.
This construction has the advantage that the base plate can be thinner and less
reinforcement is necessary.
The foundation should be about 10 to 15 mm smaller than your garden sauna so
that water can run o the outer walls of the garden sauna and the outer sides of
thefoundation.

Note:
Thefoundationsmustbeabsolutelyattoensuretheload-bearing capacityofthe sauna.Ifthe
foundation slab is larger than the oor space of the garden sauna, rainwater can start to collect
around the garden sauna. This means that the wooden wall elements would be constantly
standing on wet ground.This could result in the wood absorbing the water and starting to rot.
We point out that we do not accept any liability for the resulting damage.
Anchoring the garden sauna:
It is essential that the garden sauna is rmly anchored on the base plate or the strip
foundation. Strong winds can exert a powerful force on the garden sauna. To prevent
damage to your property or third-party, property proper anchoring is essential.
We point out that anchoring the garden sauna is the responsibility of
the customer and we do not accept any liability for accidental damage.
Wood protection outside:
The wood of the garden sauna is untreated. If you want to increase the life of your garden
sauna, we recommend painting with a suitable protective painting.
Roong:
The included roong felt serves as an initial cover. We also recommend to cover the roof
with bitumen shingles, sheet metal or a suitable foil.
Delivery of the garden sauna:
The garden sauna is delivered by lorry (also possible by semi-trailer truck).
Access to the unloading area must be ensured.
For the unloading and assembly of the garden house at least two persons are necessary.
