If we are talking about the Russian bath, the material from which is built the design is irrelevant – steam is required to run exclusively from wood. Is tradition, covenants, and so say – «Russian spirit». To justify the reality may the following scientific facts:
-
The tree is one of the most environmentally friendly materials, for a human it is most nice and helpful;
-
Wood has low thermal conductivity, in consequence of which the probability to burn is extremely small;
-
However, the tree characterized by the ability uniform distribution of heat over its total volume, which affects the speed of heating steam;
-
If the wood for the interior finishing was handled correctly, there is a continuous air – and then the bath does not require additional ventilation unless she is built entirely of devera;

The choice of materials for interior finishing baths. ↑
One of the main stages of internal work can be considered as the choice of finishing material. Its quality must meet the following criteria:
-
To be resistant to hot air, contact with water and increase humidity.
-
Be hygienic.
-
Fully not have toxins that would stand out in the heat.
-
Should not cause allergies or burns upon contact with human skin!
-
To be strong and durable.

To be decorative and nice to please the eye with their colors.
It is believed that how to build the Russian bath and decorate her best entirely of wood: the smell of fresh drevesini, along with the aroma of birch switches, fuse together to give an atmosphere of comfort and bliss.
As coniferous materials are absolutely not suitable for finishing the steam room(also known as pine very hot, and touch it during the procedure may not be very nice), they are completely perfect for rest rooms and dressing room. In them the temperature is not so high that the needles would start the selection of resins, but its flavor will not only please your soul, but also to bring a healing effect to the body. In principle, in the washing room you can use a variety of materials: gypsum, River pebbles, PVC, moisture-proof fiberboard. But better of course would be to use tiles. Given the fact that tile becomes very slippery in contact with water, it is recommended to line the floor with wood reshetochki, which at any time after the adoption of water treatments, it would be possible to dry.
Trim steamy ↑
If we are talking about a real Russian steam bath, with its heat and steam, according to tradition, its internal finishing is done only from hardwood (birch, aspen ,poplar, Linden, etc.).
Native breed to which we are accustomed – is lime. Her honey scent creates an even greater comfort in the steam room. However, aspen owns resistance to high humidity and because of this rot.
Deciduous trees are the main feature – they are poorly susceptible to splits and rot, are not heated to a state at which you can burn yourself. The use of pine, despite the cheapness of this material is excluded because of its properties to distinguish smoke at high temperatures. Also it is not necessary to consider the oak – when heated, it becomes very slippery, which can lead to the desired injury, and we’re over happy to come. If in the dressing room, for finishing work, allowed to work with natural materials, the steam room must be made only of wood, and handles and door.
Floor steam bath is performed as with the use of polished boards, and cover tiles. Finish where you will install the furnace, must be of non-combustible materials – brick, tile.
Shelves and benches
Mandatory advantage of the good steam room – it is comfortable, well-fortified, not creaking and not wobbly shelves and beds. Shelves can be attached to two atoms in three tiers.
The recommended material for shelves and benches of aspen(budget option), Linden – if the budget is not limited.
Shelves you want to run different sizes:
-
Lower to about 30cm;
-
Medium – 60cm;
-
The top – around 1m.
Everything else, the edges of benches shall be rounded, and the screws and nails are deep set into the wood. Effective moment for ventilation and long life of shelves is a way to execute them in a lattice form.
A finished dressing room ↑
The recommended material for finishing work in the dressing room are panels made from pine. They have little heat, and no harmful tar is not isolated. Under the influence of small temperature on the panel, in the dressing room will be a pleasant, slightly perceptible smell of pine. Before performing mounting of the plates, the wall needs to be insulated. It is recommended to use foam or mineral wool(as it is known these materials retain heat very well). The ceiling of the dressing room is also can be finished with pine slabs, and the floor is well secured to the joists polished boards.
Rest room ↑
But the finish bath inside ends. We still need somewhere to rest, after such a substantial, though pleasant, stress on the body. During the layout of the baths, we certainly have not forgotten about the rest room. In principle, it can get rid of any desired materials, but aesthetically it looks when its aged finish to the overall style of the interior of the baths.
