– How do wood structures in saunas not rot or get mouldy?

357 views

Combined with hot temperatures, extreme moisture, bodily fluids, and bacteria, how does a typical sauna not completely rot or develop mould? Seems like the wood would be turned into mush with all of these factors.

There is not extreme moisture in a sauna. It is very dry. That’s the fundamental behind it, very hot dry air makes you sweat. A steam room is made of tile because it would rot if it were wood. Tile breathes.
