Build Your Sauna in 6 Simple Steps

Every Grounded Fox sauna and outdoor wellness structure can be configured directly on the product page. We've made the process as simple and transparent as possible — choose your options, see your setup take shape, and watch the price update in real time. No hidden costs, no surprises, no sales calls required.

Here's how it works:

1. Choose your model — Start by finding the sauna or wellness structure that suits your garden, your space and the way you want to use it.
2. Select your heater — Choose between an electric sauna heater for convenience or a traditional wood-fired setup for the full experience.
3. Choose your windows and layout — Configure your glazing options and design details to make it feel like yours.
4. Select installation — Decide whether you'd like our team to handle everything, or whether you'd prefer to assemble it yourself or with your own builder.
5. Choose your base preparation — Select the most suitable foundation option for your garden and ground conditions.
6. Add accessories — Lighting, wellness upgrades and any finishing touches that complete the space.

As you work through each step, the total price updates automatically so you always know exactly what you're looking at. What you see is what you pay.

Installation or Self Assembly — You Choose

Every Grounded Fox sauna and wellness structure is designed to work around your outdoor space and the way you like to do things. Whether you want our team to handle every detail or you'd rather get your hands on it yourself, we've made both options as straightforward as possible.

Installation costs are calculated automatically on the product page based on the size of your structure, the options you've selected and the complexity of the setup — so you always have a clear, accurate figure before you commit to anything.

Option 1 — Professional Installation

The easiest way to bring your outdoor sauna or wellness space to life.

If you'd like to simply arrive home one day to a finished sauna ready to use, this is the option for you. Our experienced installation team will deliver your structure, assemble it carefully on site, secure it to your prepared base and make sure everything is correctly positioned and ready to go. You don't need to lift a finger.

Whether it's a barrel sauna, a cube sauna, a hot tub, an ice bath or a complete garden wellness setup, our installers handle the full assembly so that when they leave, your space is ready to enjoy.

What's Included

• Delivery of your sauna or wellness structure
• Full on-site assembly by our experienced installation team
• Secure fixing to your prepared base or foundation
• Installation of any selected accessories
• Final checks, alignment and positioning guidance

Ground Preparation

To ensure a safe and stable installation, your sauna needs to sit on a solid, level surface — paving, concrete or reinforced decking all work well. Many of our models allow you to select groundwork options directly on the product page, so you can plan your full setup in one go without needing to make separate arrangements.

If you're unsure what your garden needs, just get in touch and we'll talk it through with you.

Electrical and Plumbing Connections

Some setups — such as electric sauna heaters, chilled ice baths or hot tubs — will need to be connected by a qualified electrician or plumber. If that applies to your order, we can help arrange a trusted local tradesperson in the Leicester area to take care of it. Costs depend on the specifics of your project and will always be confirmed with you before any work begins.

If you have your own electrician or plumber you'd prefer to use, that's absolutely fine too. We're happy to provide them with any technical information they need to get the job done.

Option 2 — Self Assembly with Free Delivery

Perfect if you enjoy a practical project — or if you already have a builder or landscaper on hand to help with your garden.

Your sauna arrives as a carefully designed kit with everything you need and clear step-by-step instructions. Most structures can be assembled in around a day, and the sense of satisfaction when you fire it up for the first time having built it yourself is genuinely hard to beat.

What to Expect

• Free mainland UK delivery included with all self assembly orders
• Clear, straightforward installation instructions included
• Most structures can be assembled in around one day
• Two people recommended for assembly
• Basic tools required — a drill, socket set, spirit level and tape measure will cover most of it

Before You Begin

• Make sure your installation surface is level and structurally sound
• Lay out all parts and check everything is present before you start
• Have your tools ready before you begin
• Read through the full installation guide before picking up a single panel — it makes the whole process much smoother
