Mobile Rental FAQ
-
What if we run out of provided sauna wood?
As a general rule softwoods are great for starting your fire and hardwoods are better for keeping it burning hot . That being said, seasoned wood (< 20% moisture) from the grocery store/gas station should be fine in a pinch!
Using the following wood will not only harm the sauna but could potentially harm you:
NEVER use wood containing tree sap
NEVER burn painted, stained or pressure treated wood
NEVER use fresh cut or gathered wood
-
Of course! We will spend a few minutes together for a brief orientation of our mobile sauna. We will also leave behind written directions.
