saunalife E6W User manual

  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant. I've analyzed the user manual for the Ergo-Series E6W Barrel Sauna. It details a step-by-step construction process, from setting up the walls to installing benches and the roof. I can help you with questions you might have about the building process described in this document. Let me know how I can help!
  • What should I do before starting construction?
    What type of bits are needed for drilling?
    What is the recommended gap when tightening screws during wall assembly?
