The short answer: if you have the garden space and want the real, steamy Finnish experience, choose a barrel sauna. If you want something indoors that is cheap to run and ready in ten minutes, choose an infrared sauna. If you want a garden building you can sit in with friends, look at an outdoor cabin sauna.
| Sauna type | Best for | Heat | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barrel sauna | Gardens, cold water swimmers, wood-fired fans | 70–90°C | €5,500–€9,000 |
| Infrared sauna | Indoors, small spaces, low running costs | 45–60°C | €2,500–€5,000 |
| Outdoor cabin sauna | Bigger groups, a garden feature | 70–90°C | €9,500–€18,000 |
Outdoor and garden saunas in Ireland
An outdoor sauna has to cope with wind, rain and damp, so the timber, roof and door seals matter more here than in a dry climate. Thermowood and cedar both handle Irish weather well. A shingle or rubber roof keeps a barrel sauna watertight, and a raised, level base of paving or compacted gravel keeps it off wet ground. A garden sauna sits nicely beside a hot tub or an ice bath if you want a full home spa.
Home saunas and infrared saunas
A home sauna doesn’t need a garden. One and two person infrared saunas fit in a spare room, a garage or a garden room, and many run off a normal plug. They warm you directly with infrared panels rather than heating the air, so the cabin feels gentler at 45–60°C and is ready in around ten to fifteen minutes.
Wood-burning or electric sauna heater?
A wood-burning sauna stove gives that crackle, smell and soft steam that many people want, and it needs no electrics at all. It takes 45–60 minutes to heat and you need dry hardwood. An electric sauna heater is simpler: switch it on, set the temperature and it’s ready in 30–45 minutes, but larger heaters need a dedicated supply put in by a registered electrician.
What does a sauna cost to run?
Roughly, a 6 kW electric heater used for an hour and a half costs about €2–€3 a session at Irish electricity prices. A 2 kW infrared sauna costs well under €1 an hour. A wood-fired sauna costs whatever your logs cost, typically a few euro a session.
Do you need planning permission for a garden sauna?
Usually not. In the Republic, a garden sauna is generally treated like any other garden building, so it is normally exempt if it sits behind the house, is under 25 m² and stays within the height limits. In Northern Ireland similar permitted development rules apply. Check the Citizens Information planning guide or your council if your site is unusual, listed or in a conservation area.

How much does a sauna cost in Ireland?
A one or two person infrared sauna starts from around €2,500. A good barrel sauna for two to four people is usually €5,500–€9,000, and an outdoor cabin sauna runs from about €9,500 to €18,000. Delivery, a base and electrics are extra and depend on your site.
Is a barrel sauna or an infrared sauna better?
Neither is better, they suit different people. A barrel sauna gets hotter (70–90°C) with traditional steam and lives outside. An infrared sauna runs cooler (45–60°C), is cheaper to run and fits indoors. If you want a proper Finnish sauna, go for a barrel; if you want convenience, go infrared.
Can an outdoor sauna cope with the Irish weather?
Yes, if it is built for it. Choose thermowood or cedar, a proper waterproof roof and a raised level base so it is not sitting in wet ground. Oil or treat the outside once a year and it will last for many years.
Do I need an electrician to install a sauna?
For an electric sauna heater, yes. Most need their own supply from the fuse board, fitted and certified by a registered electrician. Many small infrared saunas plug into a normal socket, and a wood-burning sauna needs no electrics at all.
How hot should a sauna be?
A traditional sauna is usually 70–90°C. An infrared sauna is 45–60°C. Start with 8–15 minutes, cool down, drink water and build up from there. If you are pregnant or have a heart condition, check with your GP first.
Do you deliver saunas to Northern Ireland?
Yes. We arrange delivery and installation in all 32 counties, including Belfast, Derry and the rest of Northern Ireland.
