One System, Every Job

## A floating sauna is a cabin on a pontoon

The same pods that carry a houseboat carry a sauna. Bolt the hull together, build a deck, and put your sauna cabin and a cold-plunge ladder on top. Moor it off the shore, or move it to wherever the view is best.

-   Built on Main Boat Pods, rated 150kg each at half immersion
-   No antifoul, 15+ year pod life
-   Add pods later for a bigger deck or a second cabin

Sauna FAQs

## Floating sauna questions

[All FAQs](https://www.pontoonz.co.nz/faqs/)

### Will it be stable with people moving around?

Size the platform to the cabin plus the people and it sits level at about half immersion. The calculator does the sums.

### Do I need a consent?

Moorings and structures on water usually need a consent from your regional council in New Zealand, or approval from your state waterways authority in Australia.

### Can I build the cabin myself?

Yes. Pontoonz supplies the platform; you or your builder do the cabin.
