I been thinking about this Sauna mod for the Polish Army Lavvu for a while now and finally found the time to give it ago.
The only issue is that the Polish Army Lavvu isn’t really big enough for more than one person to be sitting in it, when using the Frontier Stove as the heater.
The Polish Army Lavvu can be purchased from Military Mart. Please note there are three sizes so make sure you get the correct size.
The bigger the lavvu the less sword crossing you would have if you are sharing the sauna tent with friends.
The idea came from a video I saw of a sauna tent. I thought to myself that I could probably find a way to turn my Lavvu into one.
The first idea for the Sauna mod for the Polish Army Lavvu was just to have 2 large flat stones on the top of the stove.
The problem then being that the water running off the stones would cause the stove to rust.
So the idea I came up with was to use a aluminium roasting tray to hold the rocks in.
The stove being used here is the Anevay Frontier stove. This is an absolutely brilliant bit of kit.
I’ve had my Frontier stove for about 10 years and as long as you look after it it will last a life time.

The Secret Sauna is local to me and located on the bank of the River Waveney very close to the town of Bungay in Suffolk
